.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBSSL_CTX_set_read_ahead()\fR and \fBSSL_set_read_ahead()\fR set whether we should read as
many input bytes as possible (for nonblocking reads) or not. For example if
\&\fBx\fR bytes are currently required by OpenSSL, but \fBy\fR bytes are available from
the underlying \s-1BIO\s0 (where \fBy\fR > \fBx\fR), then OpenSSL will read all \fBy\fR bytes
into its buffer (providing that the buffer is large enough) if reading ahead is
on, or \fBx\fR bytes otherwise.
Setting the parameter \fByes\fR to 0 turns reading ahead is off, other values turn
it on.
\&\fBSSL_CTX_set_default_read_ahead()\fR is identical to \fBSSL_CTX_set_read_ahead()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBSSL_CTX_get_read_ahead()\fR and \fBSSL_get_read_ahead()\fR indicate whether reading
ahead has been set or not.
\&\fBSSL_CTX_get_default_read_ahead()\fR is identical to \fBSSL_CTX_get_read_ahead()\fR.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
These functions have no impact when used with \s-1DTLS.\s0 The return values for
\&\fBSSL_CTX_get_read_head()\fR and \fBSSL_get_read_ahead()\fR are undefined for \s-1DTLS.\s0 Setting
\&\fBread_ahead\fR can impact the behaviour of the \fBSSL_pending()\fR function
(see \fBSSL_pending\fR\|(3)).
.PP
Since \fBSSL_read()\fR can return \fB\s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ\s0\fR for non-application data
records, and \fBSSL_has_pending()\fR can't tell the difference between processed and
unprocessed data, it's recommended that if read ahead is turned on that
\&\fB\s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0\fR is not turned off using \fBSSL_CTX_clear_mode()\fR.
That will prevent getting \fB\s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ\s0\fR when there is still a complete
record available that hasn't been processed.
.PP
If the application wants to continue to use the underlying transport (e.g. \s-1TCP\s0
connection) after the \s-1SSL\s0 connection is finished using \fBSSL_shutdown()\fR reading
ahead should be turned off.
Otherwise the \s-1SSL\s0 structure might read data that it shouldn't.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBSSL_get_read_ahead()\fR and \fBSSL_CTX_get_read_ahead()\fR return 0 if reading ahead is off,
and non zero otherwise.
