.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
"NAME"
SSL_free_buffers, SSL_alloc_buffers - manage SSL structure buffers
"SYNOPSIS"
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/ssl.h> \& int SSL_free_buffers(SSL *ssl); int SSL_alloc_buffers(SSL *ssl); .Ve
"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fBSSL_free_buffers() frees the read and write buffers of the given ssl. \fBSSL_alloc_buffers() allocates the read and write buffers of the given ssl.

The \s-1SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS\s0 mode releases read or write buffers whenever the buffers have been drained. These functions allow applications to manually control when buffers are freed and allocated.

After freeing the buffers, the buffers are automatically reallocated upon a new read or write. The SSL_alloc_buffers() does not need to be called, but can be used to make sure the buffers are preallocated. This can be used to avoid allocation during data processing or with CRYPTO_set_mem_functions() to control where and how buffers are allocated.

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" The following return values can occur:
"0 (Failure)" 4
Item "0 (Failure)" The SSL_free_buffers() function returns 0 when there is pending data to be read or written. The SSL_alloc_buffers() function returns 0 when there is an allocation failure.
"1 (Success)" 4
Item "1 (Success)" The SSL_free_buffers() function returns 1 if the buffers have been freed. This value is also returned if the buffers had been freed before calling \fBSSL_free_buffers(). The SSL_alloc_buffers() function returns 1 if the buffers have been allocated. This value is also returned if the buffers had been allocated before calling \fBSSL_alloc_buffers().
