I have no idea. I thought the SSL library can do so whenever it feels like it, but I'm not sure. The other problem scenario was that the server receive only the first half of an SSL packet. That doesn't produce any data available to read with SSL_read(), so SSL_read() will block, but it does wake up a select(). -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
