NAME

       BIO_socket_wait, BIO_wait, BIO_do_connect_retry - BIO connection utility functions

SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/bio.h>

        #ifndef OPENSSL_NO_SOCK
        int BIO_socket_wait(int fd, int for_read, time_t max_time);
        #endif
        int BIO_wait(BIO *bio, time_t max_time, unsigned int nap_milliseconds);
        int BIO_do_connect_retry(BIO *bio, int timeout, int nap_milliseconds);

DESCRIPTION

       BIO_socket_wait() waits on the socket fd for reading if for_read is not 0, else for
       writing, at most until max_time.  It succeeds immediately if max_time == 0 (which means no
       timeout given).

       BIO_wait() waits at most until max_time on the given (typically socket-based) bio, for
       reading if bio is supposed to read, else for writing.  It is used by
       BIO_do_connect_retry() and can be used together BIO_read(3).  It succeeds immediately if
       max_time == 0 (which means no timeout given).  If sockets are not available it supports
       polling by succeeding after sleeping at most the given nap_milliseconds in order to avoid
       a tight busy loop.  Via nap_milliseconds the caller determines the polling granularity.

       BIO_do_connect_retry() connects via the given bio.  It retries BIO_do_connect() as far as
       needed to reach a definite outcome, i.e., connection succeeded, timeout has been reached,
       or an error occurred.  For nonblocking and potentially even non-socket BIOs it polls every
       nap_milliseconds and sleeps in between using BIO_wait().  If nap_milliseconds is < 0 then
       a default value of 100 ms is used.  If the timeout parameter is > 0 this indicates the
       maximum number of seconds to wait until the connection is established or a definite error
       occurred.  A value of 0 enables waiting indefinitely (i.e, no timeout), while a value < 0
       means that BIO_do_connect() is tried only once.  The function may, directly or indirectly,
       invoke ERR_clear_error().

RETURN VALUES

       BIO_socket_wait(), BIO_wait(), and BIO_do_connect_retry() return -1 on error, 0 on
       timeout, and 1 on success.
