Provided by: gnutls-doc_3.5.18-1ubuntu1.6_all bug

NAME
       gnutls_record_recv_packet - API function


SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_packet(gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_packet_t * packet);


ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

       gnutls_packet_t * packet
                   the structure that will hold the packet data


DESCRIPTION
       This  is  a  lower-level  function  than  gnutls_record_recv()  and  allows to directly receive the whole
       decrypted packet. That avoids a memory copy, and is intended to be  used  by  applications  seeking  high
       performance.

       The   received   packet   is   accessed   using  gnutls_packet_get()  and  must  be  deinitialized  using
       gnutls_packet_deinit(). The returned packet will be NULL if the return value is zero (EOF).


RETURNS
       The number of bytes received and zero on EOF (for stream connections).  A negative error code is returned
       in case of an error.


SINCE
       3.3.5
