.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.

.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
In OpenSSL versions before 1.0.0 the \fIBIO_pop()\fR call was handled incorrectly,
the I/O \s-1BIO\s0 reference count was incorrectly incremented (instead of
decremented) and dissociated with the \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 even if the \s-1SSL\s0 \s-1BIO\s0 was not
explicitly being popped (e.g. a pop higher up the chain). Applications which
included workarounds for this bug (e.g. freeing BIOs more than once) should
be modified to handle this fix or they may free up an already freed \s-1BIO\s0.
