Downstream crates like
tokio-openssl
andhyper-openssl
currently create possibly-uninitialized slices to feed toSslStream::read
which is not formally sound. Since std'sReadBuf
type isn't yet stable, this PR adds methods that take&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]
slices instead, and provide guarantees about the state after the call in documentation.I also switched over to the
_ex
variants of the core OpenSSL IO functions where possible since it avoids issues around ambiguous handling of empty buffers and int-sized length parameters.
