Why do you say that it's normal to return -1 and set errno to 0? For non-blocking sockets or not? Even AIX manual says it should be set to EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK. What is more likely to happen is that OpenSSL was compiled without threads support. In this case error value will go to thread-specific errno, while BIO_sock_should_retry would attempt to read global errno presumably from main thread. In this case question is where does your OpenSSL come from? Was it compiled without MT support? Why do you use it in MT application? If it's not case, then it's rather AIX bug than OpenSSL. The fact that removing #ifdef make the trick doesn't change the fact that it's AIX bug. What's your 'openssl version -a'? ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [email protected] Automated List Manager [email protected]
