SSL_free_buffers, SSL_alloc_buffers - manage SSL structure buffers
#include <openssl/ssl.h> int SSL_free_buffers(SSL *ssl); int SSL_alloc_buffers(SSL *ssl);
SSL_free_buffers() frees the read and write buffers of the given ssl. SSL_alloc_buffers() allocates the read and write buffers of the given ssl.
The SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode releases read or write buffers whenever the buffers have been drained. These functions allow applications to manually control when buffers are freed and allocated.
After freeing the buffers, the buffers are automatically reallocated upon a new read or write. The SSL_alloc_buffers() does not need to be called, but can be used to make sure the buffers are preallocated. This can be used to avoid allocation during data processing or with CRYPTO_set_mem_functions() to control where and how buffers are allocated.
The following return values can occur:
ssl(7), SSL_free(3), SSL_clear(3), SSL_new(3), SSL_CTX_set_mode(3), CRYPTO_set_mem_functions(3)
