NAME
       gnutls_session_get_master_secret  -  get  the  session's  master secret
       value

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       const  void  *  gnutls_session_get_master_secret(gnutls_session_t  ses-
       sion);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_session_t session

		   is a gnutls_session_t structure.

DESCRIPTION
       Return  a  pointer  to  the  48-byte master secret in the session.  The
       pointer must not be modified or deallocated.

       If a master secret value has not yet been established, the output  will
       be  garbage; in particular, a NULL return value should not be expected.

       Consider using gnutls_prf() rather than extracting  the	master	secret
       and use it to derive further data.

RETURNS
       pointer to master secret data.
