C APIs are synchronous, which means client sends a request and waits until server responds. This makes applications to not do anything until server sends a response. There can be a requirement where client is not bothered about when server sends data back, client can submit a query, do some other tasks and when in need of server response, client can check if server has sent the response and act accordingly. Thus making a need to implement asynchronous communication between client and server. This WL introduces new non blocking version of above C APIs which does not wait for data to be available on the socket to be read. These APIs will return immediately with a return status. Return status is used to decide if the API has completed its operation or needs to be called again at some later point in time to complete the operation.
