When not set (the default), +SSL_write() will only report success once the complete chunk was written. +Once SSL_write() returns with r, r bytes have been successfully written +and the next call to SSL_write() must only send the n-r bytes left, +imitating the behaviour of write(). + +=item SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER + +Make it possible to retry SSL_write() with changed buffer location +(the buffer contents must stay the same). This is not the default to avoid +the misconception that non-blocking SSL_write() behaves like +non-blocking write(). + +=item SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY + +Never bother the application with retries if the transport is blocking. +If a renegotiation take place during normal operation, a +L<SSL_read(3)> or L<SSL_write(3)> would return +with -1 and indicate the need to retry with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ. +In a non-blocking environment applications must be prepared to handle +incomplete read/write operations. +In a blocking environment, applications are not always prepared to +deal with read/write operations returning without success report. The +flag SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY will cause read/write operations to only +return after the handshake and successful completion. + +=item SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS + +When we no longer need a read buffer or a write buffer for a given SSL, +then release the memory we were using to hold it. +Using this flag can +save around 34k per idle SSL connection. +This flag has no effect on SSL v2 connections, or on DTLS connections. + +=item SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV + +Send TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV in the ClientHello. +To be set only by applications that reconnect with a downgraded protocol +version; see draft-ietf-tls-downgrade-scsv-00 for details. + +DO NOT ENABLE THIS if your application attempts a normal handshake. +Only use this in explicit fallback retries, following the guidance +in draft-ietf-tls-downgrade-scsv-00. + +=item SSL_MODE_ASYNC + +Enable asynchronous processing. TLS I/O operations may indicate a retry with +SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC with this mode set if an asynchronous capable engine is +used to perform cryptographic operations.
