.SH NAME
SSL_set_fd \- connect the SSL object with a file descriptor
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& #include <openssl/ssl.h>
\&
\& int SSL_set_fd(SSL *ssl, int fd);
\& int SSL_set_rfd(SSL *ssl, int fd);
\& int SSL_set_wfd(SSL *ssl, int fd);

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBSSL_set_fd()\fR sets the file descriptor \fBfd\fR as the input/output facility
for the TLS/SSL (encrypted) side of \fBssl\fR. \fBfd\fR will typically be the
socket file descriptor of a network connection.
.PP
When performing the operation, a \fBsocket BIO\fR is automatically created to
interface between the \fBssl\fR and \fBfd\fR. The BIO and hence the SSL engine
inherit the behaviour of \fBfd\fR. If \fBfd\fR is non-blocking, the \fBssl\fR will
also have non-blocking behaviour.
.PP
If there was already a BIO connected to \fBssl\fR, \fBBIO_free()\fR will be called
(for both the reading and writing side, if different).
.PP
\&\fBSSL_set_rfd()\fR and \fBSSL_set_wfd()\fR perform the respective action, but only
for the read channel or the write channel, which can be set independently.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
The following return values can occur:
.IP 0 4
The operation failed. Check the error stack to find out why.
.IP 1 4
.IX Item "1"
The operation succeeded.
