What's the meaning of "timeout"? What can the caller expect from setting
that value? I think it either needs better name or better document.

I don't see EAGAIN handled in the following function. Is that expected?

This is equivalent to always setting adjust to 0.

Actually this "adjust" variable looks useless to me because you always
use "continue" afterwards. It won't ever get used in "while".

Use EOVERFLOW?
