An open source, portable, easy to use, readable and flexible TLS library, and reference implementation of the PSA Cryptography API. Releases are on a varying cadence, typically around 3 - 6 months between releases.
mbedtls currently uses select() to get the status of sockets. This has known limitations, e.g. as described in check_fd(). A more capable alternative is to use poll(), which doesn't have such limitations. Is there a reason select() is still being used?
Justification
Mbed TLS needs this to be more robust with what is supported.
