SSL_read() returning SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL with errno 11 EAGAIN

[John Unsworth]

Thanks, the mutex is tied to the SSL session and used for all calls (now!).

The good news is that moving SSL_get_error() into the same mutex unit as SSL_read() has solved the problem.

Thank you for all your help and advice.

Regards,
John.

For the record, though I think you realise this, *both* the SSL_read()
or SSL_write() and the following SSL_get_error() need to be protected
as a unit by the *same* instance of the locked mutex.  It would not
be enough to lock these separately.

    acquire_lock();
        if (reading)
            ret = SSL_read(ssl, ...);
        else
            ret = SSL_write(ssl, ...);
        if (ret <= 0)
            err = SSL_get_error(ssl, ret);
    release_lock();

    /* Handle EOF and errors */
