NAME

       gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function(gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_pull_timeout_func func);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

       gnutls_pull_timeout_func func
                   a callback function

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  the function where you set a function for gnutls to know whether data are ready to be received.
       It should wait for data a given time frame in milliseconds. The callback should return 0  on  timeout,  a
       positive  number  if  data  can  be  received, and -1 on error.  You'll need to override this function if
       select() is not suitable for the provided transport calls.

       As with select(), if the timeout value is zero the callback should return zero if no data are immediately
       available.   The  special  value  GNUTLS_INDEFINITE_TIMEOUT  indicates  that  the  callback  should  wait
       indefinitely for data.

        gnutls_pull_timeout_func  is  of  the  form,   int   (*gnutls_pull_timeout_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t,
       unsigned int ms);

       This  callback  is  necessary when gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() or gnutls_record_set_timeout() are set,
       under TLS1.3 and for enforcing the DTLS mode timeouts when in blocking mode.

       For compatibility with future GnuTLS versions this callback must be set when a custom  pull  function  is
       registered. The callback will not be used when the session is in TLS mode with non-blocking sockets. That
       is, when GNUTLS_NONBLOCK is specified for a TLS session in gnutls_init().

       The helper function gnutls_system_recv_timeout() is provided to simplify writing callbacks.
