gnutls_record_recv − reads data from the TLS record protocol
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
ssize_t gnutls_record_recv(gnutls_session_t session, void * data, size_t sizeofdata);
gnutls_session_t session
is a gnutls_session_t structure.
void * data |
the buffer that the data will be read into |
size_t sizeofdata
the number of requested bytes
This function has the similar semantics with recv(). The only difference is that is accepts a GNUTLS session, and uses different error codes.
In the special case that a server requests a renegotiation, the client may receive an error code of GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE. This message may be simply ignored, replied with an alert containing NO_RENEGOTIATION, or replied with a new handshake, depending on the client’s will.
If EINTR is returned by the internal push function (the default is code{recv()}) then GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED will be returned. If GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED or GNUTLS_E_AGAIN is returned, you must call this function again, with the same parameters; alternatively you could provide a NULL pointer for data, and 0 for size. cf. code{gnutls_record_get_direction()}.
A server may also receive GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE when a client has initiated a handshake. In that case the server can only initiate a handshake or terminate the connection.
Returns the number of bytes received and zero on EOF. A negative error code is returned in case of an error. The number of bytes received might be less than code{count}.
