=head1 NAME
SSL_accept_stream, SSL_get_accept_stream_queue_len, SSL_ACCEPT_STREAM_NO_BLOCK -
accept an incoming QUIC stream from a QUIC peer
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
#define SSL_ACCEPT_STREAM_NO_BLOCK
SSL *SSL_accept_stream(SSL *ssl, uint64_t flags);
size_t SSL_get_accept_stream_queue_len(SSL *ssl);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The SSL_accept_stream() function attempts to dequeue an incoming stream from the
given QUIC connection SSL object and returns the newly allocated QUIC stream SSL
object.
If the queue of incoming streams is empty, this function returns NULL (in
nonblocking mode) or waits for an incoming stream (in blocking mode). This
function may still return NULL in blocking mode, for example if the underlying
connection is terminated.
The caller is responsible for managing the lifetime of the returned QUIC stream
SSL object; for more information, see L<SSL_free(3)>.
This function will block if the QUIC connection SSL object is configured in
blocking mode (see L<SSL_set_blocking_mode(3)>), but this may be bypassed by
passing the flag B<SSL_ACCEPT_STREAM_NO_BLOCK> in I<flags>. If this flag is set,
this function never blocks.
SSL_get_accept_stream_queue_len() returns the number of incoming streams
currently waiting in the accept queue.
=begin comment
TODO(QUIC): Revise in MSMT PR to mention threading considerations.
=end comment
Depending on whether default stream functionality is being used, it may be
necessary to explicitly configure the incoming stream policy before streams can
be accepted; see L<SSL_set_incoming_stream_policy(3)>.
=begin comment
TODO(QUIC): Update the above to refer to default stream man(7) page once
man(7) pages are merged
=end comment
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SSL_accept_stream() returns a newly allocated QUIC stream SSL object, or NULL if
no new incoming streams are available, or if the connection has been terminated,
or if called on a SSL object other than a QUIC connection SSL object.
L<SSL_get_error(3)> can be used to obtain further information in this case.
SSL_get_accept_stream_queue_len() returns the number of incoming streams
currently waiting in the accept queue, or 0 if called on a SSL object other than
a QUIC connection SSL object.

=head1 HISTORY
SSL_accept_stream() and SSL_get_accept_stream_queue_len() were added in OpenSSL
3.2.
