Re: Sudden control data sent during large transfer.

I found the real issue... recently I fixed a signed/unsigned comparison warning by adding a (int) to the unsigned side, which made the result of send() be compared differently, and was triggering when send() would return -1 (with EAGAIN/WSAEWOULDBLOCK) would cause me to think it was a short send ( result < amount_to_send ) { /* sent less than full packet */ }  so I ended up backing up the send offset by 1 byte instead of 0 bytes... this was then injecting 1 extra byte into the TCP layer.

How can I know what/why openssl is sending control data?

It's variable by the time it starts sending 31 byte packets... Also depends on the connection; although at this time I'm able to generate the problem on localhost... I was able to transfer from a remote server to myself with no issues...

I think you need to be a lot more clear for anyone to understand your
problem.

What exactly do you mean by "control data"?

alerts/HelloRequest/renegotation?
 

What is the layering of protocols here?
Is it:
   bulk data ="" WebSockets => TLS => TCP => network

In what direction is the bulk data being sent: TLS client to TLS
server or TLS server to TLS client?
server to client. 

In what direction is the initial 31 byte "control packet" being
sent: TLS client to TLS server or TLS server to TLS client?

client to server 
Also, if possible, could you report the (decrypted if applicable)
content of those initial 31 bytes?  Perhaps also the later 31 byte
packets (including their order of occurrence and direction of
transmission)?

Can you see what the "packets" are?

I wouldn't know the decrypted bytes because I would get them from the wbio from the TLS Object.
Well that's kinda what I was more asking; can I somehow register a callback for when alerts are generated so I can see what they are?  Otherwise I really don't know.

 

For example, are they TLS alert messages?

Are they TLS HelloRequest messages?


Enjoy
