|
|
\&\fIBIO_s_bio()\fR returns the method for a \s-1BIO\s0 pair. A \s-1BIO\s0 pair is a pair of source/sink
|
|
BIOs where data written to either half of the pair is buffered and can be read from
|
|
the other half. Both halves must usually by handled by the same application thread
|
|
since no locking is done on the internal data structures.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Since \s-1BIO\s0 chains typically end in a source/sink \s-1BIO\s0 it is possible to make this
|
|
one half of a \s-1BIO\s0 pair and have all the data processed by the chain under application
|
|
control.
|
|
.PP
|
|
One typical use of \s-1BIO\s0 pairs is to place \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 I/O under application control, this
|
|
can be used when the application wishes to use a non standard transport for
|
|
\&\s-1TLS/SSL\s0 or the normal socket routines are inappropriate.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Calls to \fIBIO_read()\fR will read data from the buffer or request a retry if no
|
|
data is available.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Calls to \fIBIO_write()\fR will place data in the buffer or request a retry if the
|
|
buffer is full.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The standard calls \fIBIO_ctrl_pending()\fR and \fIBIO_ctrl_wpending()\fR can be used to
|
|
determine the amount of pending data in the read or write buffer.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_reset()\fR clears any data in the write buffer.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_make_bio_pair()\fR joins two separate BIOs into a connected pair.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_destroy_pair()\fR destroys the association between two connected BIOs. Freeing
|
|
up any half of the pair will automatically destroy the association.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_shutdown_wr()\fR is used to close down a \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR. After this call no further
|
|
writes on \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR are allowed (they will return an error). Reads on the other
|
|
half of the pair will return any pending data or \s-1EOF\s0 when all pending data has
|
|
been read.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_set_write_buf_size()\fR sets the write buffer size of \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR to \fBsize\fR.
|
|
If the size is not initialized a default value is used. This is currently
|
|
17K, sufficient for a maximum size \s-1TLS\s0 record.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_get_write_buf_size()\fR returns the size of the write buffer.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_new_bio_pair()\fR combines the calls to \fIBIO_new()\fR, \fIBIO_make_bio_pair()\fR and
|
|
\&\fIBIO_set_write_buf_size()\fR to create a connected pair of BIOs \fBbio1\fR, \fBbio2\fR
|
|
with write buffer sizes \fBwritebuf1\fR and \fBwritebuf2\fR. If either size is
|
|
zero then the default size is used. \fIBIO_new_bio_pair()\fR does not check whether
|
|
\&\fBbio1\fR or \fBbio2\fR do point to some other \s-1BIO\s0, the values are overwritten,
|
|
\&\fIBIO_free()\fR is not called.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_get_write_guarantee()\fR and \fIBIO_ctrl_get_write_guarantee()\fR return the maximum
|
|
length of data that can be currently written to the \s-1BIO\s0. Writes larger than this
|
|
value will return a value from \fIBIO_write()\fR less than the amount requested or if the
|
|
buffer is full request a retry. \fIBIO_ctrl_get_write_guarantee()\fR is a function
|
|
whereas \fIBIO_get_write_guarantee()\fR is a macro.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_get_read_request()\fR and \fIBIO_ctrl_get_read_request()\fR return the
|
|
amount of data requested, or the buffer size if it is less, if the
|
|
last read attempt at the other half of the \s-1BIO\s0 pair failed due to an
|
|
empty buffer. This can be used to determine how much data should be
|
|
written to the \s-1BIO\s0 so the next read will succeed: this is most useful
|
|
in \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 applications where the amount of data read is usually
|
|
meaningful rather than just a buffer size. After a successful read
|
|
this call will return zero. It also will return zero once new data
|
|
has been written satisfying the read request or part of it.
|
|
Note that \fIBIO_get_read_request()\fR never returns an amount larger
|
|
than that returned by \fIBIO_get_write_guarantee()\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_ctrl_reset_read_request()\fR can also be used to reset the value returned by
|
|
\&\fIBIO_get_read_request()\fR to zero.
|
|
.SH "NOTES"
|
|
.IX Header "NOTES"
|
|
Both halves of a \s-1BIO\s0 pair should be freed. That is even if one half is implicit
|
|
freed due to a \fIBIO_free_all()\fR or \fISSL_free()\fR call the other half needs to be freed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When used in bidirectional applications (such as \s-1TLS/SSL\s0) care should be taken to
|
|
flush any data in the write buffer. This can be done by calling \fIBIO_pending()\fR
|
|
on the other half of the pair and, if any data is pending, reading it and sending
|
|
it to the underlying transport. This must be done before any normal processing
|
|
(such as calling \fIselect()\fR ) due to a request and \fIBIO_should_read()\fR being true.
|
|
.PP
|
|
To see why this is important consider a case where a request is sent using
|
|
\&\fIBIO_write()\fR and a response read with \fIBIO_read()\fR, this can occur during an
|
|
\&\s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake for example. \fIBIO_write()\fR will succeed and place data in the write
|
|
buffer. \fIBIO_read()\fR will initially fail and \fIBIO_should_read()\fR will be true. If
|
|
the application then waits for data to be available on the underlying transport
|
|
before flushing the write buffer it will never succeed because the request was
|
|
never sent!

As the \s-1BIO\s0 pair will only buffer the data and never directly access the
|
|
connection, it behaves non-blocking and will return as soon as the write
|
|
buffer is full or the read buffer is drained. Then the application has to
|
|
flush the write buffer and/or fill the read buffer.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Use the \fIBIO_ctrl_pending()\fR, to find out whether data is buffered in the \s-1BIO\s0
|
|
and must be transfered to the network. Use \fIBIO_ctrl_get_read_request()\fR to
|

find out, how many bytes must be written into the buffer before the

\&\fISSL_operation()\fR can successfully be continued.

.SH "WARNING"

.IX Header "WARNING"
|
|
As the data is buffered, \fISSL_operation()\fR may return with a \s-1ERROR_SSL_WANT_READ\s0
|
|
condition, but there is still data in the write buffer. An application must
|
|
not rely on the error value of \fISSL_operation()\fR but must assure that the
|
|
write buffer is always flushed first. Otherwise a deadlock may occur as
|
|
the peer might be waiting for the data before being able to continue.
