=pod =head1 NAME SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead, SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead, SSL_set_read_ahead, SSL_get_read_ahead, SSL_CTX_get_default_read_ahead - manage whether to read as many input bytes as possible =head1 SYNOPSIS #include void SSL_set_read_ahead(SSL *s, int yes); int SSL_get_read_ahead(const SSL *s); SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx, int yes); long SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx); long SSL_CTX_get_default_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx); =head1 DESCRIPTION SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() and SSL_set_read_ahead() set whether we should read as many input bytes as possible (for non-blocking reads) or not. For example if B bytes are currently required by OpenSSL, but B bytes are available from the underlying BIO (where B > B), then OpenSSL will read all B bytes into its buffer (providing that the buffer is large enough) if reading ahead is on, or B bytes otherwise. The parameter B or B should be 0 to ensure reading ahead is off, or non zero otherwise. SSL_CTX_set_default_read_ahead() is identical to SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead(). SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead() and SSL_get_read_ahead() indicate whether reading ahead has been set or not. =head1 NOTES These functions have no impact when used with DTLS. The return values for SSL_CTX_get_read_head() and SSL_get_read_ahead() are undefined for DTLS. Setting B can impact the behaviour of the SSL_pending() function (see L). =head1 RETURN VALUES SSL_get_read_ahead() and SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead() return 0 if reading ahead is off, and non zero otherwise. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2015-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
