Its return values are similar to that of \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3). Unlike \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3), which also evaluates the error queue, the results are obtained by examining an internal state flag only. The information must therefore only be used for normal operation under nonblocking I/O. Error conditions are not handled and must be treated using \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3). .PP The result returned by \fBSSL_want()\fR should always be consistent with the result of \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3). .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" The following return values can currently occur for \fBSSL_want()\fR: .IP SSL_NOTHING 4 .IX Item "SSL_NOTHING" There is no data to be written or to be read. .IP SSL_WRITING 4 .IX Item "SSL_WRITING" There are data in the SSL buffer that must be written to the underlying \&\fBBIO\fR layer in order to complete the actual SSL_*() operation. A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE\fR. .IP SSL_READING 4 .IX Item "SSL_READING" More data must be read from the underlying \fBBIO\fR layer in order to complete the actual SSL_*() operation. A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_READ\fR. .IP SSL_X509_LOOKUP 4 .IX Item "SSL_X509_LOOKUP" The operation did not complete because an application callback set by \&\fBSSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb()\fR has asked to be called again. A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_X509_LOOKUP\fR. .IP SSL_RETRY_VERIFY 4 .IX Item "SSL_RETRY_VERIFY" The operation did not complete because a certificate verification callback has asked to be called again via \fBSSL_set_retry_verify\fR\|(3). A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_RETRY_VERIFY\fR. .IP SSL_ASYNC_PAUSED 4 .IX Item "SSL_ASYNC_PAUSED" An asynchronous operation partially completed and was then paused. See \&\fBSSL_get_all_async_fds\fR\|(3). A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \&\fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC\fR. .IP SSL_ASYNC_NO_JOBS 4 .IX Item "SSL_ASYNC_NO_JOBS" The asynchronous job could not be started because there were no async jobs available in the pool (see \fBASYNC_init_thread\fR\|(3)). A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC_JOB\fR. .IP SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_CB 4 .IX Item "SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_CB" The operation did not complete because an application callback set by \&\fBSSL_CTX_set_client_hello_cb()\fR has asked to be called again. A call to \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) should return \fBSSL_ERROR_WANT_CLIENT_HELLO_CB\fR. .PP \&\fBSSL_want_nothing()\fR, \fBSSL_want_read()\fR, \fBSSL_want_write()\fR, \&\fBSSL_want_x509_lookup()\fR, \fBSSL_want_retry_verify()\fR, \&\fBSSL_want_async()\fR, \fBSSL_want_async_job()\fR, and \fBSSL_want_client_hello_cb()\fR return 1 when the corresponding condition is true or 0 otherwise. .SH "QUIC-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS" .IX Header "QUIC-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS" For QUIC, these functions relate only to the TLS handshake layer. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBssl\fR\|(7), \fBSSL_get_error\fR\|(3) .SH HISTORY .IX Header "HISTORY" The \fBSSL_want_client_hello_cb()\fR function and the SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_CB return value were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1. .SH COPYRIGHT .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2001\-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
