gnutls_record_send(3) gnutls gnutls_record_send(3) NAME gnutls_record_send - API function SYNOPSIS #include <gnutls/gnutls.h> ssize_t gnutls_record_send(gnutls_session_t session, const void * data, size_t data_size); ARGUMENTS gnutls_session_t session is a gnutls_session_t type. const void * data contains the data to send size_t data_size is the length of the data DESCRIPTION This function has the similar semantics with send(). The only difference is that it accepts a GnuTLS session, and uses different error codes. Note that if the send buffer is full, send() will block this function. See the send() documentation for more information. You can replace the default push function which is send(), by using gnutls_transport_set_push_function(). If the EINTR is returned by the internal push function 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 exact same parameters, or provide a NULL pointer for data and 0 for data_size , in order to write the same data as before. If you wish to discard the previous data instead of retrying, you must call gnutls_record_discard_queued() before calling this function with different parameters. Note that the latter works only on special transports (e.g., UDP). cf. gnutls_record_get_direction(). Note that in DTLS this function will return the GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET error code if the send data exceed the data MTU value - as returned by gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu(). The errno value EMSGSIZE also maps to GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET. Note that since 3.2.13 this function can be called under cork in DTLS mode, and will refuse to send data over the MTU size by returning GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET. RETURNS The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The number of bytes sent might be less than data_size . The maximum number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on the negotiated maximum record size. REPORTING BUGS Report bugs to <bugs@gnutls.org>.
