177 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
178 \&\fIBIO_f_ssl()\fR returns the \s-1SSL BIO\s0 method. This is a filter \s-1BIO\s0 which
179 is a wrapper round the OpenSSL \s-1SSL\s0 routines adding a \s-1BIO \s0\*(L"flavour\*(R" to
182 I/O performed on an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 communicates using the \s-1SSL\s0 protocol with
183 the SSLs read and write BIOs. If an \s-1SSL\s0 connection is not established
184 then an attempt is made to establish one on the first I/O call.
186 If a \s-1BIO\s0 is appended to an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 using \fIBIO_push()\fR it is automatically
187 used as the \s-1SSL\s0 BIOs read and write BIOs.
189 Calling \fIBIO_reset()\fR on an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 closes down any current \s-1SSL\s0 connection
190 by calling \fISSL_shutdown()\fR. \fIBIO_reset()\fR is then sent to the next \s-1BIO\s0 in
191 the chain: this will typically disconnect the underlying transport.
192 The \s-1SSL BIO\s0 is then reset to the initial accept or connect state.
194 If the close flag is set when an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 is freed then the internal
195 \&\s-1SSL\s0 structure is also freed using \fISSL_free()\fR.
197 \&\fIBIO_set_ssl()\fR sets the internal \s-1SSL\s0 pointer of \s-1BIO \s0\fBb\fR to \fBssl\fR using
198 the close flag \fBc\fR.
200 \&\fIBIO_get_ssl()\fR retrieves the \s-1SSL\s0 pointer of \s-1BIO \s0\fBb\fR, it can then be
201 manipulated using the standard \s-1SSL\s0 library functions.
203 \&\fIBIO_set_ssl_mode()\fR sets the \s-1SSL BIO\s0 mode to \fBclient\fR. If \fBclient\fR
204 is 1 client mode is set. If \fBclient\fR is 0 server mode is set.
206 \&\fIBIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_bytes()\fR sets the renegotiate byte count
207 to \fBnum\fR. When set after every \fBnum\fR bytes of I/O (read and write)
208 the \s-1SSL\s0 session is automatically renegotiated. \fBnum\fR must be at
211 \&\fIBIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_timeout()\fR sets the renegotiate timeout to
212 \&\fBseconds\fR. When the renegotiate timeout elapses the session is
213 automatically renegotiated.
215 \&\fIBIO_get_num_renegotiates()\fR returns the total number of session
216 renegotiations due to I/O or timeout.
218 \&\fIBIO_new_ssl()\fR allocates an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 using \s-1SSL_CTX \s0\fBctx\fR and using
219 client mode if \fBclient\fR is non zero.
221 \&\fIBIO_new_ssl_connect()\fR creates a new \s-1BIO\s0 chain consisting of an
222 \&\s-1SSL BIO \s0(using \fBctx\fR) followed by a connect \s-1BIO.\s0
224 \&\fIBIO_new_buffer_ssl_connect()\fR creates a new \s-1BIO\s0 chain consisting
225 of a buffering \s-1BIO,\s0 an \s-1SSL BIO \s0(using \fBctx\fR) and a connect
228 \&\fIBIO_ssl_copy_session_id()\fR copies an \s-1SSL\s0 session id between
229 \&\s-1BIO\s0 chains \fBfrom\fR and \fBto\fR. It does this by locating the
230 \&\s-1SSL\s0 BIOs in each chain and calling \fISSL_copy_session_id()\fR on
231 the internal \s-1SSL\s0 pointer.
233 \&\fIBIO_ssl_shutdown()\fR closes down an \s-1SSL\s0 connection on \s-1BIO\s0
234 chain \fBbio\fR. It does this by locating the \s-1SSL BIO\s0 in the
235 chain and calling \fISSL_shutdown()\fR on its internal \s-1SSL\s0
238 \&\fIBIO_do_handshake()\fR attempts to complete an \s-1SSL\s0 handshake on the
239 supplied \s-1BIO\s0 and establish the \s-1SSL\s0 connection. It returns 1
240 if the connection was established successfully. A zero or negative
241 value is returned if the connection could not be established, the
242 call \fIBIO_should_retry()\fR should be used for non blocking connect BIOs
243 to determine if the call should be retried. If an \s-1SSL\s0 connection has
244 already been established this call has no effect.
247 \&\s-1SSL\s0 BIOs are exceptional in that if the underlying transport
248 is non blocking they can still request a retry in exceptional
249 circumstances. Specifically this will happen if a session
250 renegotiation takes place during a \fIBIO_read()\fR operation, one
251 case where this happens is when \s-1SGC\s0 or step up occurs.
253 In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later the \s-1SSL\s0 flag \s-1SSL_AUTO_RETRY\s0 can be
254 set to disable this behaviour. That is when this flag is set
255 an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 using a blocking transport will never request a
258 Since unknown \fIBIO_ctrl()\fR operations are sent through filter
259 BIOs the servers name and port can be set using \fIBIO_set_host()\fR
260 on the \s-1BIO\s0 returned by \fIBIO_new_ssl_connect()\fR without having
261 to locate the connect \s-1BIO\s0 first.
263 Applications do not have to call \fIBIO_do_handshake()\fR but may wish
264 to do so to separate the handshake process from other I/O

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