SSL_PENDING(3) OpenSSL SSL_PENDING(3)
SSL_pending - obtain number of readable bytes buffered in an
SSL object
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_pending(const SSL *ssl);
SSL_pending() returns the number of bytes which are avail-
able inside ssl for immediate read.
Data are received in blocks from the peer. Therefore data
can be buffered inside ssl and are ready for immediate
retrieval with SSL_read(3).
The number of bytes pending is returned.
SSL_pending() takes into account only bytes from the TLS/SSL
record that is currently being processed (if any). If the
SSL object's read_ahead flag is set, additional protocol
bytes may have been read containing more TLS/SSL records;
these are ignored by SSL_pending().
Up to OpenSSL 0.9.6, SSL_pending() does not check if the
record type of pending data is application data.
