Of the remaining implementations left, ssl3_, dtls1_, and ssl23_, dtls1_ is
redundant and can be folded into ssl3_. ssl23_ actually isn't; it sets 5
minutes rather than 2 hours. Two hours seems to be what everything else uses
and seems a saner default. Most consumers seem to override it anyway
(SSL_CTX_set_timeout). But it is a behavior change.
The method is called at two points:
- SSL_get_default_timeout
- SSL_CTX_new
Incidentally, the latter call actually makes the former never called internally
and the value it returns a lie. SSL_get_default_timeout returns the default
timeout of the /current/ method, but in ssl_get_new_session, the timeout is
shadowed by session_timeout on the context. That is initialized when
SSL_CTX_new is called. So, unless you go out of your way to
SSL_CTX_set_timeout(0), it always overrides. (And it actually used to a
difference because, for SSL23, the SSL_CTX's method is SSL23, but, when session
creation happens, the SSL's method is the version-specific one.)
