+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context, SSL_set_session_id_context - set context within which session can be reused (server side only)
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ int SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(SSL_CTX *ctx, const unsigned char *sid_ctx,
+                                    unsigned int sid_ctx_len);
+ int SSL_set_session_id_context(SSL *ssl, const unsigned char *sid_ctx,
+                                unsigned int sid_ctx_len);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context() sets the context B<sid_ctx> of length
+B<sid_ctx_len> within which a session can be reused for the B<ctx> object.
+
+SSL_set_session_id_context() sets the context B<sid_ctx> of length
+B<sid_ctx_len> within which a session can be reused for the B<ssl> object.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+Sessions are generated within a certain context. When exporting/importing
+sessions with B<i2d_SSL_SESSION>/B<d2i_SSL_SESSION> it would be possible,
+to re-import a session generated from another context (e.g. another
+application), which might lead to malfunctions. Therefore each application
+must set its own session id context B<sid_ctx> which is used to distinguish
+the contexts and is stored in exported sessions. The B<sid_ctx> can be
+any kind of binary data with a given length, it is therefore possible
+to use e.g. the name of the application and/or the hostname and/or service
+name ...
+
+The session id context becomes part of the session. The session id context
+is set by the SSL/TLS server. The SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context() and
+SSL_set_session_id_context() functions are therefore only useful on the
+server side.
+
+OpenSSL clients will check the session id context returned by the server
+when reusing a session.
+
+The maximum length of the B<sid_ctx> is limited to
+B<SSL_MAX_SSL_SESSION_ID_LENGTH>.
+
+=head1 WARNINGS
+
+If the session id context is not set on an SSL/TLS server and client
+certificates are used, stored sessions
+will not be reused but a fatal error will be flagged and the handshake
+will fail.
+
+If a server returns a different session id context to an OpenSSL client
+when reusing a session, an error will be flagged and the handshake will
+fail. OpenSSL servers will always return the correct session id context,
+as an OpenSSL server checks the session id context itself before reusing
+a session as described above.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context() and SSL_set_session_id_context()
+return the following values:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Z<>0
+
+The length B<sid_ctx_len> of the session id context B<sid_ctx> exceeded
+the maximum allowed length of B<SSL_MAX_SSL_SESSION_ID_LENGTH>. The error
+is logged to the error stack.
+
+=item Z<>1
+
+The operation succeeded.
