=head1 NAME
BIO_socket_wait,
BIO_wait,
BIO_do_connect_retry
- BIO connection utility functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/bio.h>
#ifndef OPENSSL_NO_SOCK
int BIO_socket_wait(int fd, int for_read, time_t max_time);
#endif
int BIO_wait(BIO *bio, time_t max_time, unsigned int nap_milliseconds);
int BIO_do_connect_retry(BIO *bio, int timeout, int nap_milliseconds);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
BIO_socket_wait() waits on the socket B<fd> for reading if B<for_read> is not 0,
else for writing, at most until B<max_time>.
It succeeds immediately if B<max_time> == 0 (which means no timeout given).
BIO_wait() waits at most until B<max_time> on the given (typically socket-based)
B<bio>, for reading if B<bio> is supposed to read, else for writing.
It is used by BIO_do_connect_retry() and can be used together L<BIO_read(3)>.
It succeeds immediately if B<max_time> == 0 (which means no timeout given).
If sockets are not available it supports polling by succeeding after sleeping
at most the given B<nap_milliseconds> in order to avoid a tight busy loop.
Via B<nap_milliseconds> the caller determines the polling granularity.
BIO_do_connect_retry() connects via the given B<bio>.
It retries BIO_do_connect() as far as needed to reach a definite outcome,
i.e., connection succeeded, timeout has been reached, or an error occurred.
For nonblocking and potentially even non-socket BIOs it polls
every B<nap_milliseconds> and sleeps in between using BIO_wait().
If B<nap_milliseconds> is < 0 then a default value of 100 ms is used.
If the B<timeout> parameter is > 0 this indicates the maximum number of seconds
to wait until the connection is established or a definite error occurred.
A value of 0 enables waiting indefinitely (i.e, no timeout),
while a value < 0 means that BIO_do_connect() is tried only once.
The function may, directly or indirectly, invoke ERR_clear_error().
=head1 RETURN VALUES
BIO_socket_wait(), BIO_wait(), and BIO_do_connect_retry()
return -1 on error, 0 on timeout, and 1 on success.
