.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is turned on, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

way too many mistakes in technical documents.
"NAME"
SSL_want, SSL_want_nothing, SSL_want_read, SSL_want_write, SSL_want_x509_lookup - obtain state information TLS/SSL I/O operation
"SYNOPSIS"
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/ssl.h> \& int SSL_want(const SSL *ssl); int SSL_want_nothing(const SSL *ssl); int SSL_want_read(const SSL *ssl); int SSL_want_write(const SSL *ssl); int SSL_want_x509_lookup(const SSL *ssl); .Ve
"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fISSL_want() returns state information for the \s-1SSL\s0 object ssl.

The other SSL_want_*() calls are shortcuts for the possible states returned by SSL_want().

"NOTES"
Header "NOTES" \fISSL_want() examines the internal state information of the \s-1SSL\s0 object. Its return values are similar to that of SSL_get_error\|(3). Unlike SSL_get_error\|(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 non-blocking I/O. Error conditions are not handled and must be treated using SSL_get_error\|(3).

The result returned by SSL_want() should always be consistent with the result of SSL_get_error\|(3).

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" The following return values can currently occur for SSL_want():
"\s-1SSL_NOTHING\s0" 4
Item "SSL_NOTHING" There is no data to be written or to be read.
"\s-1SSL_WRITING\s0" 4
Item "SSL_WRITING" There are data in the \s-1SSL\s0 buffer that must be written to the underlying \fB\s-1BIO\s0 layer in order to complete the actual SSL_*() operation. A call to SSL_get_error\|(3) should return \s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE.\s0
"\s-1SSL_READING\s0" 4
Item "SSL_READING" More data must be read from the underlying \s-1BIO\s0 layer in order to complete the actual SSL_*() operation. A call to SSL_get_error\|(3) should return \s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ.\s0
"\s-1SSL_X509_LOOKUP\s0" 4
Item "SSL_X509_LOOKUP" The operation did not complete because an application callback set by \fISSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb() has asked to be called again. A call to SSL_get_error\|(3) should return \s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_X509_LOOKUP.\s0

\fISSL_want_nothing(), SSL_want_read(), SSL_want_write(), SSL_want_x509_lookup() return 1, when the corresponding condition is true or 0 otherwise.
