301=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
302
303If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
304when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
305avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
306
307Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
308of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
309you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
310can also make it smaller due to compression).
311
312As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
313chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
314manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.

341
342=item keepalive => <boolean>
343
344Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
345normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
346connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
347side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
348TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
349is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
350and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
351to 15 minutes later.
352
353It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
354keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
355is usually a good idea.
356
357=item oobinline => <boolean>
358
359BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
360is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
361implements it slightly differently.
362
363If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
364is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
365putting it into the stream.
366
367Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
368security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
369unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
370establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
371already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
372from most attacks.

1761
1762Checks the input stream for a valid SSL or TLS handshake TLSPaintext
1763record without consuming anything. Only SSL version 3 or higher
1764is handled, up to the fictituous protocol 4.x (but both SSL3+ and
1765SSL2-compatible framing is supported).
1766
1767If it detects that the input data is likely TLS, it calls the callback
1768with a true value for C<$detect> and the (on-wire) TLS version as second
1769and third argument (C<$major> is C<3>, and C<$minor> is 0..3 for SSL
17703.0, TLS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2, respectively). If it detects the input to
1771be definitely not TLS, it calls the callback with a false value for
1772C<$detect>.
1773
1774The callback could use this information to decide whether or not to start
1775TLS negotiation.
1776
1777In all cases the data read so far is passed to the following read
1778handlers.
1779
1780Usually you want to use the C<tls_autostart> read type instead.
1781
1782If you want to design a protocol that works in the presence of TLS
1783dtection, make sure that any non-TLS data doesn't start with the octet 22
1784(ASCII SYN, 16 hex) or 128-255 (i.e. highest bit set). The checks this
1785read type does are a bit more strict, but might losen in the future to
1786accomodate protocol changes.
1787
1788This read type does not rely on L<AnyEvent::TLS> (and thus, not on
1789L<Net::SSLeay>).
1790
1791=item tls_autostart => $tls[, $tls_ctx]
1792
1793Tries to detect a valid SSL or TLS handshake. If one is detected, it tries
1794to start tls by calling C<starttls> with the given arguments.
1795
1796In practise, C<$tls> must be C<accept>, or a Net::SSLeay context that has
1797been configured to accept, as servers do not normally send a handshake on
1798their own and ths cannot be detected in this way.
1799

1475This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>. 1850Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1851of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1852find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1853progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1854function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

1507These methods will have no effect when in TLS mode (as TLS doesn't support 1885In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1508half-duplex connections). 1886as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1887work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1888attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1889amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1890some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1891attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1892during a rehandshake.
1893
1894As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
1895and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

1845 2305
2306=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2307
2308Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2309you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2310considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2311
2312To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2313is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2314an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2315queue.
2316
2317See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2318
2319=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2320
2321Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2322followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2323and handles them, in a loop.
2324
2325There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2326handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2327close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2328client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2329detect an unexpected detection close.
2330
2331To handle this case, always make sure you have a non-empty read queue, by
2332pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2333
2334 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2335 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2336 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2337
2338 ... handle request
2339
2340 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2341 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2342 });
2343
2344 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2345 # now push the first @start_request
2346 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2347
2348By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2349some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2350unexpectedly.
2351
2352The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2353at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2354sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2355failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2356kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2357problem).
2358
2359Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2360C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2361connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2362
2363A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2364callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2365(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2366error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2367and simpler:
2368
2369 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2370 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2371 my ($hdl) = @_;
2372
2373 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2374 # simply start read the request
2375
2376 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2377 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2378
2379 ... handle request
2380
2381 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2382 # let the request queue go empty.
2383 });
2384 });
