NSS's full API has a huge number of callable functions, any many of them
are undocumented.  But the one part of NSS that is relatively well
documented in the SSL API.  All the documentation is on the web.

There is an overview, an SSL API reference, and sample source code.

See:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/ref/ssl/index.html
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/ref/ssl/bklast.html
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/security/nss/cmd/SSLsample/


Help to complete the API documentation would be welcome.
