 function] {{{buf_read_from_tls(...)}}} returns an integer. This integer
 can either be {{{<=0}}} (in which case it corresponds to a {{{TOR_TLS_}}}
 status) or a positive number (in which case it corresponds to the number
 of bytes read). This return value is

 used in] {{{connection_buf_read_from_socket()}}} in a large
 {{{switch(result)}}} statement.

 At the beginning of {{{buf_read_from_tls(...)}}}, it returns {{{-1}}} on
 the lines:

 {{{
 IF_BUG_ONCE(buf->datalen >= INT_MAX)
   return -1;
 IF_BUG_ONCE(buf->datalen >= INT_MAX - at_most)
   return -1;
 }}}


 This value of {{{-1}}} is the

 same as] {{{TOR_TLS_WANTWRITE}}}. This causes the switch statement in
 {{{connection_buf_read_from_socket()}}} to interpret the return value as
 {{{TOR_TLS_WANTWRITE}}}, which is not correct for the {{{buf->datalen >=
 INT_MAX}}} bug. I suggest returning {{{TOR_TLS_ERROR_MISC}}} instead of
 {{{-1}}}. Note that this would close the connection.

 I don't think you'll see incorrect behavior due to this, but it might be a
 good idea to fix.
