+=head1 NAME
+d2i_SSL_SESSION, i2d_SSL_SESSION - convert SSL_SESSION object from/to ASN1 representation
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ SSL_SESSION *d2i_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION **a, unsigned char **pp, long length);
+ int i2d_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION *in, unsigned char **pp);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+d2i_SSL_SESSION() transforms the external ASN1 representation of an SSL/TLS
+session, stored as binary data at location B<pp> with length B<length>, into
+an SSL_SESSION object.
+
+i2d_SSL_SESSION() transforms the SSL_SESSION object B<in> into the ASN1
+representation and stores it into the memory location pointed to by B<pp>.
+The length of the resulting ASN1 representation is returned. If B<pp> is
+the NULL pointer, only the length is calculated and returned.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The SSL_SESSION object is built from several malloc()ed parts, it can
+therefore not be moved, copied or stored directly. In order to store
+session data on disk or into a database, it must be transformed into
+a binary ASN1 representation.
+
+When using d2i_SSL_SESSION(), the SSL_SESSION object is automatically
+allocated.
+
+When using i2d_SSL_SESSION(), the memory location pointed to by B<pp> must be
+large enough to hold the binary representation of the session. There is no
+known limit on the size of the created ASN1 representation, so the necessary
+amount of space should be obtained by first calling i2d_SSL_SESSION() with
+B<pp=NULL>, and obtain the size needed, then allocate the memory and
+call i2d_SSL_SESSION() again.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+d2i_SSL_SESSION() returns a pointer to the newly allocated SSL_SESSION
+object. In case of failure the NULL-pointer is returned and the error message
+can be retrieved from the error stack.
+
+i2d_SSL_SESSION() returns the size of the ASN1 representation in bytes.
+When the session is not valid, B<0> is returned and no operation is performed.
