#include <openssl/ssl.h> void SSL_set_read_ahead(SSL *s, int yes); int SSL_get_read_ahead(const SSL *s); SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx, int yes); long SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx); long SSL_CTX_get_default_read_ahead(SSL_CTX *ctx);
SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead() and SSL_get_read_ahead() indicate whether reading ahead has been set or not. SSL_CTX_get_default_read_ahead() is identical to SSL_CTX_get_read_ahead().
Since SSL_read() can return SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ for non-application data records, and SSL_has_pending() can't tell the difference between processed and unprocessed data, it's recommended that if read ahead is turned on that SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is not turned off using SSL_CTX_clear_mode(). That will prevent getting SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ when there is still a complete record available that hasn't been processed.
If the application wants to continue to use the underlying transport (e.g. TCP connection) after the SSL connection is finished using SSL_shutdown() reading ahead should be turned off. Otherwise the SSL structure might read data that it shouldn't.
