The .Vt BIO and hence the SSL engine inherit the behaviour of .Fa fd . If .Fa fd is non-blocking, the .Fa ssl will also have non-blocking behaviour. .Pp If there was already a .Vt BIO connected to .Fa ssl , .Xr BIO_free 3 will be called (for both the reading and writing side, if different). .Pp .Fn SSL_set_rfd and .Fn SSL_set_wfd perform the respective action, but only for the read channel or the write channel, which can be set independently. .Sh RETURN VALUES The following return values can occur: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It 0 The operation failed. Check the error stack to find out why. .It 1 The operation succeeded. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr BIO_new 3 , .Xr ssl 3 , .Xr SSL_accept 3 , .Xr SSL_connect 3 , .Xr SSL_get_fd 3 , .Xr SSL_set_bio 3 , .Xr SSL_shutdown 3 .Sh HISTORY .Fn SSL_set_fd appeared in SSLeay 0.4 or earlier. .Fn SSL_set_rfd and .Fn SSL_set_wfd first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.0. These functions have been available since .Ox 2.4 .
