The coder/decoder implements both transport-facing protocol and protocol-facing transport.\n\nReturn the created two-interface instance. After await, the protocol must stop using the original transport and communicate with the returned object only because the coder caches protocol-side data and sporadically exchanges extra TLS session packets with transport.\n\nIn some situations (e.g. when the passed transport is already closing) this may return None.\n\ntransport and protocol instances that methods like ~loop.create_server and ~loop.create_connection return.\n\nsslcontext: a configured instance of ~ssl.SSLContext.\n\nserver_side pass True when a server-side connection is being upgraded (like the one created by ~loop.create_server).\n\nserver_hostname: sets or overrides the host name that the target server's certificate will be matched against.\n\nssl_handshake_timeout is (for a TLS connection) the time in seconds to wait for the TLS handshake to complete before aborting the connection. 60.0 seconds if None (default).\n\nssl_shutdown_timeout is the time in seconds to wait for the SSL shutdown to complete before aborting the connection. 30.0 seconds if None (default).\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
