[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #3729] Patch to add support for iovec-based IO in OpenSSL

[Short, Todd via RT]

Hello OpenSSL Org:

This is a change that Akamai has made to its implementation of OpenSSL.

Version: master branch
Description: Add “struct iovec” variants to ssl IO (configurable, disabled by default)

This adds support of iovec-based IO into openSSL. iovec can be faster than normal IO mechanism as there are fewer calls into the kernel.
Regular APIs are modified to use “ssl_bucket” (similar to iovec structures) at the lower level, so the IO path is still the same regardless of whether iovec-based APIs are used or not.

And attachment.

Thank you.
