Here: https://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_shutdown.html I see only this:
-----------------------------------------------------
RETURN VALUES

The following return values can occur:

 1.  The shutdown is not yet finished. Call SSL_shutdown() for a second time, 
if a bidirectional shutdown shall be performed. The output of SSL_get_error may 
be misleading, as an erroneous SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL may be flagged even though no 
error occurred.

 2.  The shutdown was successfully completed. The "close notify" alert was sent 
and the peer's "close notify" alert was received.

    <0

        The shutdown was not successful because a fatal error occurred either 
at the protocol level or a connection failure occurred. It can also occur if 
action is need to continue the operation for non-blocking BIOs. Call 
SSL_get_error with the return value ret to find out the reason.

Seems to be this is right.
This is exactly what I wanted to see here:  
https://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_shutdown.html

I use non-blocking sockets. That's why I got -1 as return value after first 
ssl_shutdown().
I process WANT_READ/WANT_WRITE. But some servers don't send "close_notify", so 
we never got a 1 as a return value.
We must be sure that server got a "close_notify" - this is the question! What 
is the best practise for that?
