NAME
       CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION - callback for known host matching logic

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       enum curl_khstat {
	 CURLKHSTAT_FINE_ADD_TO_FILE,
	 CURLKHSTAT_FINE,
	 CURLKHSTAT_REJECT, /* reject the connection, return an error */
	 CURLKHSTAT_DEFER,  /* do not accept it, but we can't answer right
			       now so this causes a CURLE_DEFER error but
			       otherwise the connection will be left intact
			       etc */
       };

       enum curl_khmatch {
	 CURLKHMATCH_OK,       /* match */
	 CURLKHMATCH_MISMATCH, /* host found, key mismatch! */
	 CURLKHMATCH_MISSING,  /* no matching host/key found */
       };

       struct curl_khkey {
	 const char *key; /* points to a zero-terminated string encoded with
			     base64 if len is zero, otherwise to the "raw"
			     data */
	 size_t len;
	 enum curl_khtype keytype;
       };

       int ssh_keycallback(CURL *easy,
			   const struct curl_khkey *knownkey,
			   const struct curl_khkey *foundkey,
			   enum curl_khmatch,
			   void *clientp);

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION,
				 ssh_keycallback);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype shown above.

       It gets called when the known_host matching has been done, to allow the application to act and decide for libcurl how to proceed. The call-
       back will only be called if CURLOPT_SSH_KNOWNHOSTS(3) is also set.

       This callback function gets passed the CURL handle, the key from the known_hosts file knownkey, the key from the remote site foundkey, info
       from  libcurl  on  the  matching  status and a custom pointer (set with CURLOPT_SSH_KEYDATA(3)). It MUST return one of the following return
       codes to tell libcurl how to act:

       CURLKHSTAT_FINE_ADD_TO_FILE
	      The host+key is accepted and libcurl will append it to the known_hosts file before continuing with the connection.  This	will  also
	      add  the	host+key combo to the known_host pool kept in memory if it wasn't already present there. The adding of data to the file is
	      done by completely replacing the file with a new copy, so the permissions of the file must allow this.

       CURLKHSTAT_FINE
	      The host+key is accepted libcurl will continue with the connection. This will also add the host+key combo  to  the  known_host  pool
	      kept in memory if it wasn't already present there.

       CURLKHSTAT_REJECT
	      The host+key is rejected. libcurl will deny the connection to continue and it will be closed.

       CURLKHSTAT_DEFER
	      The  host+key is rejected, but the SSH connection is asked to be kept alive.  This feature could be used when the app wants to some-
	      how return back and act on the host+key situation and then retry without needing the overhead of setting it up from scratch again.
