Hi,

Could I get the following update reviewed:
     http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~xuelei/8240871/webrev.00/

For TLS 1.3 full handshake, if the last handshake flight wraps the Finished together with other handshake message, for example client certificate, the flight could be wrapped and encrypted in one record and delegated tasks would be used.  There is no chance to return FINISHED handshake status with SSLEngine.(un)wrap(). However, per the HandshakeStatus.FINISHED specification, this handshake status is only generated by a call to SSLEngine.wrap()/unwrap() and it is never generated by SSLEngine.getHandshakeStatus().

In order to workaround this case for TLS 1.3, the FINISHED status could present with SSLEngine.wrap() while delivering of the NewSessionTicket post-handshake message.  If this post-handshake message is not needed, a follow-on SSLEngine.wrap() should be called to indicate the FINISHED handshake status.  Although this special SSLEngine.wrap() should not consume or produce any application or network data.

I also clean up some debug log, names and code style a little bit.

The update could be confirmed with Tomcat and Firefox in private mode, as described in the bug description.  As this case happens only when psk_key_exchange_modes does not present, which is not a behavior supported by JDK, I did not find a workaround for a new regression test yet.  I added the labels, noreg-external and noreg-hard.

Thanks,

I do not fully understand the situation, mostly because of SSLEngine semantics.  In normal operation, does is HandshakeStatus.FINISHED returned when Finished is received or after the NewSessionTicket message?
Not exactly.  For TLS 1.2, FINISHED will be returned with unwrap() of the finished handshake message.  However, for TLS 1.3, FINISHED will be returned any longer, because the finished handshake message is wrapped with certificate message in one record.

For TLS 1.3:
1. client send certificate, certificate verify and finished handshake message in one record. 2. server call unwrap(), and return NEED_TASK to handle the certificate and certificate verify.

So, no more FINISHED for the unwrap() return.

It is fine if there is a after NewSessionTicket message.  The wrap() for the post-handshake message will return FINISHED.

The bug reported is a special one that the Firefox is run in private mode, which does not request NewSessionTicket.  So there is no post-handshake generated and sent in server side.  Then, there is no FINISHED can be used if applications depends on it.

To workaround the case, a dummy wrap() or unwrap() could be used to get the FINISHED.  The wrap() or unwrap() actually do nothing but return the FINISHED status.

My understanding would have been after Finished because NST is suppose to be a post handshake message.  So in this case there is no problem, correct?

Correct.

I'm trying to figure out why you need an empty NST.  Is the problem when a number of messages are bundled together.  For example, the Finished message with a partial NST, then Finished isn't processed and both sides are waiting?  Or do both sides continue normal traffic, it's jut the HandshakeStatus.FINISHED is one operation behind?

It should be fine as empty NST is just a signal to indicate the next call to wrap().  The next call to wrap() just use the signal for the return of FINISHED status, not network data produced, delivered or consumed.


One code comment so far:
433:  The debug message purpose was to say the NST is a stateless ticket and not a preshared key.  Can we keep "stateless" in the message?

NewSessionTicket.java?  Sure, I may just want to shrink to one line.  It was not intended.
