This patch fixes the timeout handling. The method dtls1_get_timeout()
was intended to determine the next handshake message timeout when
using select() calls, to set their timeout. This method is renamed to
DTLSv1_get_timeout(), to fit the common naming scheme and the
declaration is moved. It was declared in the wrong file, so the user
was unable to use it. Additionally, the timeout handling is moved to
the method DTLSv1_handle_timeout(), which can be called by the user
when a select() timer expires. Until now expired timers were handled
not until a SSL_read() is called. This is a problem when using
select() on the reading socket, because no call of SSL_read() is done
before data from the peer arrived.
Actually now I think of it perhaps the ctrl() mechanism would be a
better way to implement this.
Hi Steve,
if the application writer chose to use select() in the main thread,
how would you handle timers in the DTLS layer?
Best regards
Michael
