SSL_WANT(3ossl)                     OpenSSL                    SSL_WANT(3ossl)



NAME

       SSL_want, SSL_want_nothing, SSL_want_read, SSL_want_write,
       SSL_want_x509_lookup, SSL_want_retry_verify, SSL_want_async,
       SSL_want_async_job, SSL_want_client_hello_cb - obtain state information
       TLS/SSL I/O operation


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        int SSL_want(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_nothing(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_read(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_write(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_x509_lookup(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_retry_verify(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_async(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_async_job(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSL_want_client_hello_cb(const SSL *ssl);


DESCRIPTION

       SSL_want(3) returns state information for the SSL object ssl.

       The other SSL_want_*() calls are shortcuts for the possible states
       returned by SSL_want(3).


NOTES

       SSL_want(3) examines the internal state information of the SSL object.
       Its return values are similar to that of SSL_get_error(3).  Unlike
       SSL_get_error(3), which also evaluates the error queue, the results are
       obtained by examining an internal state flag only. The information must
       therefore only be used for normal operation under nonblocking I/O.
       Error conditions are not handled and must be treated using
       SSL_get_error(3).

       The result returned by SSL_want(3) should always be consistent with the
       result of SSL_get_error(3).


RETURN VALUES

       The following return values can currently occur for SSL_want(3):

       SSL_NOTHING
           There is no data to be written or to be read.

       SSL_WRITING
           There are data in the SSL buffer that must be written to the
           underlying BIO layer in order to complete the actual SSL_*()
           operation.  A call to SSL_get_error(3) should return
           SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE.

       SSL_READING
           More data must be read from the underlying BIO layer in order to
           complete the actual SSL_*() operation.  A call to SSL_get_error(3)
           should return SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ.

       SSL_X509_LOOKUP
           The operation did not complete because an application callback set
           by SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb() has asked to be called again.  A
           call to SSL_get_error(3) should return SSL_ERROR_WANT_X509_LOOKUP.

       SSL_RETRY_VERIFY
           The operation did not complete because a certificate verification
           callback has asked to be called again via SSL_set_retry_verify(3).
           A call to SSL_get_error(3) should return
           SSL_ERROR_WANT_RETRY_VERIFY.

       SSL_ASYNC_PAUSED
           An asynchronous operation partially completed and was then paused.
           See SSL_get_all_async_fds(3). A call to SSL_get_error(3) should
           return SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC.

       SSL_ASYNC_NO_JOBS
           The asynchronous job could not be started because there were no
           async jobs available in the pool (see ASYNC_init_thread(3)). A call
           to SSL_get_error(3) should return SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC_JOB.

       SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_CB
           The operation did not complete because an application callback set
           by SSL_CTX_set_client_hello_cb() has asked to be called again.  A
           call to SSL_get_error(3) should return
           SSL_ERROR_WANT_CLIENT_HELLO_CB.

       SSL_want_nothing(), SSL_want_read(), SSL_want_write(),
       SSL_want_x509_lookup(), SSL_want_retry_verify(), SSL_want_async(),
       SSL_want_async_job(), and SSL_want_client_hello_cb() return 1 when the
       corresponding condition is true or 0 otherwise.


QUIC-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS

       For QUIC, these functions relate only to the TLS handshake layer.

HISTORY

       The SSL_want_client_hello_cb() function and the SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_CB
       return value were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
