Yeah, NSS supports ALPN server side.


Just getting back to this. I don't see how this can work.

AFAICT it calls the callback function to select the protocol. The 
callback returns a string representing that protocol. But it has no way 
of setting the state of the negotiation and NSS doesn't set this either. See


ssl3ext.c::ssl3_SelectAppProtocol()
...

do_callback(...)

if (ex_type == ssl_app_layer_protocol_xtn &&
ss->ssl3.nextProtoState != SSL_NEXT_PROTO_NEGOTIATED) {
/* The callback might say OK, but then it picks a default value 
- one

 * that was not listed.  That's OK for NPN, but not ALPN. */
(void)SSL3_SendAlert(ss, alert_fatal, no_application_protocol);
PORT_SetError(SSL_ERROR_NEXT_PROTOCOL_NO_PROTOCOL);
return SECFailure;
}

The callback has no way to set ss->ssl3.nextProtoState so it remains 
SSL_NEXT_PROTO_NO_SUPPORT and ALPN negotiation fails.


curl sees the failure as:

* NSS error -12231 (SSL_ERROR_RX_UNKNOWN_ALERT)
* SSL received an alert record with an unknown alert description.

Is something else supposed to be setting this state?

Is ALPN supported on the server side? I can't tell from
the API and Julien asked in
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=959664 but never got an answer.

I'm looking to add HTTP/2.0 support to mod_nss and I need ALPN to do that.

thanks
