From aeefd5b3e2766cf2adf46ab0d391c6290c566150 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: markm Date: Tue, 14 May 2002 16:06:50 +0000 Subject: As the perl-generated assembler files have been committed, add the perl-generated (.pod) manual pages too. This is another nail in the perl5 coffin (for base perl, not the port or the language in general). --- secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3 | 203 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 203 insertions(+) create mode 100644 secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3 (limited to 'secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3') diff --git a/secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3 b/secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3 new file mode 100644 index 0000000..9b0b5ba --- /dev/null +++ b/secure/lib/libcrypto/man/BIO_read.3 @@ -0,0 +1,203 @@ +.\" Automatically generated by Pod::Man version 1.15 +.\" Thu May 9 13:15:48 2002 +.\" +.\" Standard preamble: +.\" ====================================================================== +.de Sh \" Subsection heading +.br +.if t .Sp +.ne 5 +.PP +\fB\\$1\fR +.PP +.. +.de Sp \" Vertical space (when we can't use .PP) +.if t .sp .5v +.if n .sp +.. +.de Ip \" List item +.br +.ie \\n(.$>=3 .ne \\$3 +.el .ne 3 +.IP "\\$1" \\$2 +.. +.de Vb \" Begin verbatim text +.ft CW +.nf +.ne \\$1 +.. +.de Ve \" End verbatim text +.ft R + +.fi +.. +.\" Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will +.\" give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left +.\" double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. | will give a +.\" real vertical bar. \*(C+ will give a nicer C++.

In +particular when the source/sink is non-blocking or of a certain type +it may merely be an indication that no data is currently available and that +the application should retry the operation later. +.PP +One technique sometimes used with blocking sockets is to use a system call +(such as \fIselect()\fR, \fIpoll()\fR or equivalent) to determine when data is available +and then call \fIread()\fR to read the data. The equivalent with BIOs (that is call +\&\fIselect()\fR on the underlying I/O structure and then call \fIBIO_read()\fR to +read the data) should \fBnot\fR be used because a single call to \fIBIO_read()\fR +can cause several reads (and writes in the case of \s-1SSL\s0 BIOs) on the underlying +I/O structure and may block as a result. Instead \fIselect()\fR (or equivalent) +should be combined with non blocking I/O so successive reads will request +a retry instead of blocking. +.PP +See BIO_should_retry(3) for details of how to +determine the cause of a retry and other I/O issues. +.PP +If the \fIBIO_gets()\fR function is not supported by a \s-1BIO\s0 then it possible to +work around this by adding a buffering \s-1BIO\s0 BIO_f_buffer(3) +to the chain. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IX Header "SEE ALSO" +BIO_should_retry(3) +.PP +\&\s-1TBA\s0 -- cgit v1.1
