5 SSL's Buffers: enumerated and explained.
6
7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
8 incoming:
9
10 gs = ss->gather
11 hs = ss->ssl3->hs
12
13 gs->inbuf SSL3 only: incoming (encrypted) ssl records are placed here,
14 and then decrypted (or copied) to gs->buf.
15
16 gs->buf SSL2: incoming SSL records are put here, and then decrypted
17 in place.
18 SSL3: ssl3_HandleHandshake puts decrypted ssl records here.
19
20 hs.msg_body (SSL3 only) When an incoming handshake message spans more
21 than one ssl record, the first part(s) of it are accumulated
22 here until it all arrives.
23
24 hs.msgState (SSL3 only) an alternative set of pointers/lengths for gs->buf.
25 Used only when a handleHandshake function returns SECWouldBlock.
26 ssl3_HandleHandshake remembers how far it previously got by
27 using these pointers instead of gs->buf when it is called
28 after a previous SECWouldBlock return.
29
30 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
31 outgoing:
32
33 sec = ss->sec
34 ci = ss->sec->ci /* connect info */
35
36 ci->sendBuf Outgoing handshake messages are appended to this buffer.
37 This buffer will then be sent as a single SSL record.
38
39 sec->writeBuf outgoing ssl records are constructed here and encrypted in
40 place before being written or copied to pendingBuf.
41
42 ss->pendingBuf contains outgoing ciphertext that was saved after a write
43 attempt to the socket failed, e.g. EWouldBlock.
44 Generally empty with blocking sockets (should be no incomplete
45 writes).
46
47 ss->saveBuf Used only by socks code. Intended to be used to buffer
48 outgoing data until a socks handshake completes. However,
49 this buffer is always empty. There is no code to put
50 anything into it.
51
52 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
53
54 SECWouldBlock means that the function cannot make progress because it is
55 waiting for some event OTHER THAN socket I/O completion (e.g. waiting for
56 user dialog to finish). It is not the same as EWOULDBLOCK.

80 ss->ssl3 (the pointer)
81 ss->ssl3->current_write* (the pointer and the data in the spec
82 and any data referenced by the spec.

126 Data variables (not const) protected by the "sslGlobalDataLock".
127 Note, this really should be a reader/writer lock.
