.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fIBIO_f_ssl()\fR returns the \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 method. This is a filter \s-1BIO\s0 which
is a wrapper round the OpenSSL \s-1SSL\s0 routines adding a \s-1BIO\s0 \*(L"flavour\*(R" to
\&\s-1SSL\s0 I/O. 
.PP
I/O performed on an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 communicates using the \s-1SSL\s0 protocol with
the SSLs read and write BIOs. If an \s-1SSL\s0 connection is not established
then an attempt is made to establish one on the first I/O call.
.PP
If a \s-1BIO\s0 is appended to an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 using \fIBIO_push()\fR it is automatically
used as the \s-1SSL\s0 BIOs read and write BIOs.
.PP
Calling \fIBIO_reset()\fR on an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 closes down any current \s-1SSL\s0 connection
by calling \fISSL_shutdown()\fR. \fIBIO_reset()\fR is then sent to the next \s-1BIO\s0 in
the chain: this will typically disconnect the underlying transport.
The \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 is then reset to the initial accept or connect state.
.PP
If the close flag is set when an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 is freed then the internal
\&\s-1SSL\s0 structure is also freed using \fISSL_free()\fR.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_set_ssl()\fR sets the internal \s-1SSL\s0 pointer of \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR to \fBssl\fR using
the close flag \fBc\fR.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_get_ssl()\fR retrieves the \s-1SSL\s0 pointer of \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR, it can then be
manipulated using the standard \s-1SSL\s0 library functions.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_set_ssl_mode()\fR sets the \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 mode to \fBclient\fR. If \fBclient\fR
is 1 client mode is set. If \fBclient\fR is 0 server mode is set.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_bytes()\fR sets the renegotiate byte count
to \fBnum\fR. When set after every \fBnum\fR bytes of I/O (read and write) 
the \s-1SSL\s0 session is automatically renegotiated. \fBnum\fR must be at
least 512 bytes.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_timeout()\fR sets the renegotiate timeout to
\&\fBseconds\fR. When the renegotiate timeout elapses the session is
automatically renegotiated.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_get_num_renegotiates()\fR returns the total number of session
renegotiations due to I/O or timeout.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_new_ssl()\fR allocates an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 using \s-1SSL_CTX\s0 \fBctx\fR and using
client mode if \fBclient\fR is non zero.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_new_ssl_connect()\fR creates a new \s-1BIO\s0 chain consisting of an
\&\s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 (using \fBctx\fR) followed by a connect \s-1BIO\s0.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_new_buffer_ssl_connect()\fR creates a new \s-1BIO\s0 chain consisting
of a buffering \s-1BIO\s0, an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 (using \fBctx\fR) and a connect
\&\s-1BIO\s0.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_ssl_copy_session_id()\fR copies an \s-1SSL\s0 session id between 
\&\s-1BIO\s0 chains \fBfrom\fR and \fBto\fR. It does this by locating the
\&\s-1SSL\s0 BIOs in each chain and calling \fISSL_copy_session_id()\fR on
the internal \s-1SSL\s0 pointer.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_ssl_shutdown()\fR closes down an \s-1SSL\s0 connection on \s-1BIO\s0
chain \fBbio\fR. It does this by locating the \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 in the
chain and calling \fISSL_shutdown()\fR on its internal \s-1SSL\s0
pointer.
.PP
\&\fIBIO_do_handshake()\fR attempts to complete an \s-1SSL\s0 handshake on the
supplied \s-1BIO\s0 and establish the \s-1SSL\s0 connection. It returns 1
if the connection was established successfully. A zero or negative
value is returned if the connection could not be established, the
call \fIBIO_should_retry()\fR should be used for non blocking connect BIOs
to determine if the call should be retried. If an \s-1SSL\s0 connection has
already been established this call has no effect.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
\&\s-1SSL\s0 BIOs are exceptional in that if the underlying transport
is non blocking they can still request a retry in exceptional
circumstances. Specifically this will happen if a session
renegotiation takes place during a \fIBIO_read()\fR operation, one
case where this happens is when \s-1SGC\s0 or step up occurs.
.PP
In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later the \s-1SSL\s0 flag \s-1SSL_AUTO_RETRY\s0 can be
set to disable this behaviour. That is when this flag is set
an \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 using a blocking transport will never request a
retry.
.PP
Since unknown \fIBIO_ctrl()\fR operations are sent through filter
BIOs the servers name and port can be set using \fIBIO_set_host()\fR
on the \s-1BIO\s0 returned by \fIBIO_new_ssl_connect()\fR without having
to locate the connect \s-1BIO\s0 first.
.PP
Applications do not have to call \fIBIO_do_handshake()\fR but may wish
to do so to separate the handshake process from other I/O
processing.
