|

|
|
<p><code>BIO_read_ex()</code> attempts to read <strong>dlen</strong> bytes from BIO <strong>b</strong> and places the data
|
|
|
|
in <strong>data</strong>. If any bytes were successfully read then the number of bytes read is
|
|
|
|
stored in <strong>*readbytes</strong>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_write_ex()</code> attempts to write <strong>dlen</strong> bytes from <strong>data</strong> to BIO <strong>b</strong>. If
|
|
|
|
successful then the number of bytes written is stored in <strong>*written</strong>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_read()</code> attempts to read <strong>len</strong> bytes from BIO <strong>b</strong> and places
|
|
|
|
the data in <strong>buf</strong>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_gets()</code> performs the BIOs "gets" operation and places the data
|
|
|
|
in <strong>buf</strong>. Usually this operation will attempt to read a line of data
|
|
|
|
from the BIO of maximum length <strong>size-1</strong>. There are exceptions to this,
|
|
|
|
however; for example, <code>BIO_gets()</code> on a digest BIO will calculate and
|
|
|
|
return the digest and other BIOs may not support <code>BIO_gets()</code> at all.
|
|
|
|
The returned string is always NUL-terminated and the '\n' is preserved
|
|
|
|
if present in the input data.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_write()</code> attempts to write <strong>len</strong> bytes from <strong>buf</strong> to BIO <strong>b</strong>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_puts()</code> attempts to write a NUL-terminated string <strong>buf</strong> to BIO <strong>b</strong>.</p>

<h1><a name="return_values">RETURN VALUES</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>BIO_read_ex()</code> and <code>BIO_write_ex()</code> return 1 if data was successfully read or
|
|
|
|
written, and 0 otherwise.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>All other functions return either the amount of data successfully read or
|
|
|
|
written (if the return value is positive) or that no data was successfully
|
|
|
|
read or written if the result is 0 or -1. If the return value is -2 then
|
|
|
|
the operation is not implemented in the specific BIO type. The trailing
|
|
|
|
NUL is not included in the length returned by <code>BIO_gets()</code>.</p>

|
|
|
|
<p>A 0 or -1 return is not necessarily an indication of an error. In
|
|
|
|
particular when the source/sink is non-blocking or of a certain type
|
|
|
|
it may merely be an indication that no data is currently available and that
|
|
|
|
the application should retry the operation later.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>One technique sometimes used with blocking sockets is to use a system call
|
|
|
|
(such as <code>select()</code>, <code>poll()</code> or equivalent) to determine when data is available
|
|
|
|
and then call <code>read()</code> to read the data. The equivalent with BIOs (that is call
|
|
|
|
<code>select()</code> on the underlying I/O structure and then call <code>BIO_read()</code> to
|
|
|
|
read the data) should <strong>not</strong> be used because a single call to <code>BIO_read()</code>
|
|
|
|
can cause several reads (and writes in the case of SSL BIOs) on the underlying
|
|
|
|
I/O structure and may block as a result. Instead <code>select()</code> (or equivalent)
|
|
|
|
should be combined with non blocking I/O so successive reads will request
|
|
|
|
a retry instead of blocking.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>See <em>BIO_should_retry(3)</em> for details of how to
|
|
|
|
determine the cause of a retry and other I/O issues.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If the <code>BIO_gets()</code> function is not supported by a BIO then it possible to
|
|
|
|
work around this by adding a buffering BIO <em>BIO_f_buffer(3)</em>
|
|
|
|
to the chain.</p>

<p><code>BIO_gets()</code> on 1.1.0 and older when called on <code>BIO_fd()</code> based BIO does not
|

keep the '\n' at the end of the line in the buffer.</p>
