nbd_set_tls_hostname(3)

NAME
nbd_set_tls_hostname - set the TLS hostname

SYNOPSIS
 #include <libnbd.h>

 int nbd_set_tls_hostname (
       struct nbd_handle *h, const char *hostname
     );

DESCRIPTION
Set the TLS server hostname. This is used in preference to the hostname supplied when connecting (eg. through nbd_connect_tcp(3)), or when there is no explicit hostname at all (nbd_connect_unix(3)). It can be useful when you are connecting to a proxy which is forwarding the data to the final server, to specify the name of the final server so that the server's certificate can be checked.

This function may be called regardless of whether TLS is supported, but will have no effect unless nbd_set_tls(3) is also used to request or require TLS.

RETURN VALUE
If the call is successful the function returns 0.

ERRORS
On error -1 is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

The following parameters must not be NULL: "h", "hostname". For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).

HANDLE STATE
nbd_set_tls_hostname can be called when the handle is in the following state:

 ┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
 │ Handle created, before connecting   │ ✅ allowed              │
 │ Connecting                          │ ❌ error                │
 │ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error                │
 │ Connected to the server             │ ❌ error                │
 │ Connection shut down                │ ❌ error                │
 │ Handle dead                         │ ❌ error                │

VERSION
This function first appeared in libnbd 1.22.
