2015-12-03ssl: Add upper limit for session cacheIngela Anderton Andin
If upper limit is reached invalidate the current cache entries, e.i the session lifetime is the max time a session will be keept, but it may be invalidated earlier if the max limit for the table is reached. This will keep the ssl manager process well behaved, not exhusting memeory. Invalidating the entries will incrementally empty the cache to make room for fresh sessions entries.
2015-09-16ssl: Improve shutdown logicIngela Anderton Andin
Add possibility to downgrade an SSL/TLS connection to a tcp connection, and give back the socket control to a user process. Add application setting to be able to change fatal alert shutdown timeout, also shorten the default timeout. The fatal alert timeout is the number of milliseconds between sending of a fatal alert and closing the connection. Waiting a little while improves the peers chances to properly receiving the alert so it may shutdown gracefully.

2015-02-06ssl: Improve PEM cache by validating entriesIngela Anderton Andin
The PEM cache is now validated by a background process, instead of always keeping it if it is small enough and clearing it otherwhiss. That strategy required that small caches where cleared by API function if a file changes on disk. However document the clearing API function as it can still be usefull.
2014-10-13ssl: Separate session cache for client and serverIngela Anderton Andin
Even though in the most common case an erlang node will not be both client and server, it may happen (for instance when running the erlang ditribution over TLS). Also try to mitigate the affect of dumb clients that could cause a very lagre session cache on the client side that can cause long delays in the client. The server will have other means to handle a large session table and will not do any select operations on it anyhow.
