Well, in that case, you need to provide more detail.  Does the handshake
complete?  If not, at what stage does it fail?

A PCAP file may be needed.  And you need to explain what operation
fails with SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL, and do an "strace" or equivalent to
understand what the relevant socket read calls returned.
