NAME

6       gnutls_record_set_max_empty_records - API function
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
10
11       void    gnutls_record_set_max_empty_records(gnutls_session_t   session,
12       const unsigned int i);
13

ARGUMENTS

15       gnutls_session_t session
16                   is a gnutls_session_t structure.
17
18       const unsigned int i
19                   is the desired value of maximum empty records that  can  be
20                   accepted in a row.
21

DESCRIPTION

23       Used  to set the maximum number of empty fragments that can be accepted
24       in a row. Accepting  many  empty  fragments  is  useful  for  receiving
25       length-hidden  content,  where empty fragments filled with pad are sent
26       to hide the real length of a message. However, a malicious  peer  could
27       send  empty  fragments to mount a DoS attack, so as a safety measure, a
28       maximum number of empty fragments is accepted by default. If  you  know
29       your  application  must  accept  a given number of empty fragments in a
30       row, you can use this function to set the desired value.
