I read RFC. Have read "7.2.1. Closure Alerts" once again.
But this is the normative document. I ask: what in practise in terms of OpenSSL 
API?

As I already said some servers don't send "close_notify" and just close the 
connection.

So I think the shutdown algorithm for SSL client must be the following:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
//...
//all data was obtained from the server

if (SSL_shutdown(ssl)==1)
{
  closesocket(s)
  goto l_shutdown_complete;
}

shutdown(s,SD_SEND);

//set timeout for getting "close_notify" from SERVER
//in the cycle... waiting events from socket or timeout (which comes first):
//
//1. process SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ/SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE (in this case only 
SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ because seems to be SSL_shutdown() send "close_notify" 
alert to SERVER), call SSL_shutdown() once again and examine it's return value 
for 1 OR examine SSL_get_shutdown() for 
(SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN|SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN)
//
//2. Wait FD_CLOSE
//
//3. Timeout

//if one of three happens closesocket(s)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I ask: what in practise in terms of OpenSSL API?
If SERVER close the connection after all data has been sent to the client and 
will not wait for "close_notify" alert from CLIENT, will be the session kept 
and valid in OpenSLL API?
I mean, can CLIENT then reuse this session, if it doesn't send "close_notify" 
alert? Or this session will be invalid?
