Well I'm just writing about the bits I've direct experience of or can
quickly find out. BIO pairs doesn't come into that category (yet) so
feel free.
Oh BTW, SSL_read() and SSL_write() can I believe return -1 and request a
retried read or write even if the underlying BIO is blocking if the
session is renegotiated. That problem has bitten a lot of people because
it can cause problems with SGC, which renegotiates a session
immediately.
Why should it do this? I've no idea but I'd always regarded it as
anomalous and wouldn't be sorry to see this changed.
Steve.
