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 session);

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.
