=head1 NAME

OSSL_CMP_MSG_http_perform
- client-side HTTP(S) transfer of a CMP request-response pair

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/cmp.h>

 OSSL_CMP_MSG *OSSL_CMP_MSG_http_perform(OSSL_CMP_CTX *ctx,
                                         const OSSL_CMP_MSG *req);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

OSSL_CMP_MSG_http_perform() sends the given PKIMessage I<req>
to the CMP server specified in I<ctx> via L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set1_server(3)>
and optionally L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set_serverPort(3)>, using
any "CMP alias" optionally specified via L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set1_serverPath(3)>.
The default port is 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS; the default path is "/".
On success the function returns the server's response PKIMessage.

The function makes use of any HTTP callback function
set via L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set_http_cb(3)>.
It respects any timeout value set via L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set_option(3)>
with an B<OSSL_CMP_OPT_MSG_TIMEOUT> argument.
It also respects any HTTP(S) proxy options set via L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set1_proxy(3)>
and L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_set1_no_proxy(3)> and the respective environment variables.
Proxying plain HTTP is supported directly,
while using a proxy for HTTPS connections requires a suitable callback function
such as L<OSSL_HTTP_proxy_connect(3)>.

=head1 NOTES

CMP is defined in RFC 4210.
HTTP transfer for CMP is defined in RFC 6712.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

OSSL_CMP_MSG_http_perform() returns a CMP message on success, else NULL.

=head1 SEE ALSO

L<OSSL_CMP_CTX_new(3)>, L<OSSL_HTTP_proxy_connect(3)>.

=head1 HISTORY

The OpenSSL CMP support was added in OpenSSL 3.0.
