Hello, By checking the ngx_http_upstream I don't see any kind of handling in case the ngx_ssl_handshake returns NGX_ERROR, I am trying to catch this error in order to handle network outages and subsequent reconnections attempts from my module. Do you think this could be a good way to trigger reconnection timer? At the moment I am handling reconnections also in the read and write events when if(wev->timedout || c->error || c->close).
