I took a very brief look at your code and I see you went with the first
option. That's fine, although I would have done it slightly differently:
application <-- -- ssl
| |
| V
filter
^ V
memBIO
i.e. the filter does all the reading and writing to the memBIO. libssl
calls BIO_write(), the filter takes note of the packet sizes, and then
writes to the membBIO. When the application wants to read data it calls
BIO_read on the filter, and the filter figures out how big the packet
needs to be and reads that amount out of the memBIO. Your way works too
though.
