+the same TLS/SSL I/O function should be called again later. +If, by then, the underlying +.Vt BIO +has data available for reading (if the result code is +.Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ ) +or allows writing data +.Pq Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE , +then some TLS/SSL protocol progress will take place, +i.e., at least part of a TLS/SSL record will be read or written. +Note that the retry may again lead to a +.Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ +or +.Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE +condition. +There is no fixed upper limit for the number of iterations that may be +necessary until progress becomes visible at application protocol level. +.Pp +For socket +.Fa BIO Ns +s (e.g., when +.Fn SSL_set_fd +was used), +.Xr select 2 +or +.Xr poll 2 +on the underlying socket can be used to find out when the TLS/SSL I/O function +should be retried. +.Pp +Caveat: Any TLS/SSL I/O function can lead to either of +.Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ +and +.Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE . +In particular, +.Xr SSL_read 3 +or +.Xr SSL_peek 3 +may want to write data and +.Xr SSL_write 3 +may want +to read data. +This is mainly because TLS/SSL handshakes may occur at any time during the +protocol (initiated by either the client or the server); +.Xr SSL_read 3 , +.Xr SSL_peek 3 , +and +.Xr SSL_write 3 +will handle any pending handshakes. +.It Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_CONNECT , Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_ACCEPT +The operation did not complete; the same TLS/SSL I/O function should be +called again later. +The underlying BIO was not connected yet to the peer and the call would block +in +.Xr connect 2 Ns / Ns +.Xr accept 2 . +The SSL function should be +called again when the connection is established. +These messages can only appear with a +.Xr BIO_s_connect 3 +or +.Xr BIO_s_accept 3 +.Vt BIO , +respectively. +In order to find out when the connection has been successfully established, +on many platforms +.Xr select 2 +or +.Xr poll 2 +for writing on the socket file descriptor can be used. +.It Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_X509_LOOKUP +The operation did not complete because an application callback set by +.Xr SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb 3 +has asked to be called again. +The TLS/SSL I/O function should be called again later. +Details depend on the application. +.It Dv SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL +Some I/O error occurred. +The OpenSSL error queue may contain more information on the error. +If the error queue is empty (i.e., +.Fn ERR_get_error +returns 0), +.Fa ret +can be used to find out more about the error: +If +.Fa ret +== 0, an +.Dv EOF +was observed that violates the protocol. +If +.Fa ret +== \(mi1, the underlying +.Vt BIO +reported an +I/O error (for socket I/O on Unix systems, consult +.Dv errno +for details). +.It Dv SSL_ERROR_SSL +A failure in the SSL library occurred, usually a protocol error. +The OpenSSL error queue contains more information on the error. +.El +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr err 3 , +.Xr ssl 3 +.Sh HISTORY +.Fn SSL_get_error +first appeared in SSLeay 0.8.0 and have been available since +.Ox 2.4 . |
