+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+BIO_f_ssl() returns the SSL BIO method. This is a filter BIO which
+is a wrapper round the OpenSSL SSL routines adding a BIO "flavour" to
+SSL I/O.
+
+I/O performed on an SSL BIO communicates using the SSL protocol with
+the SSLs read and write BIOs.
+
+If a BIO is appended to an SSL BIO using BIO_push() it is automatically
+used as the SSL BIOs read and write BIOs.
+
+Calling BIO_reset() on an SSL BIO closes down any current SSL connection
+by calling SSL_shutdown(). BIO_reset() is then sent to the next BIO in
+the chain: this will typically disconnect the underlying transport.
+The SSL BIO is then reset to the initial accept or connect state.
+
+If the close flag is set when an SSL BIO is freed then the internal
+SSL structure is also freed using SSL_free().
+
+BIO_set_ssl() sets the internal SSL pointer of BIO B<b> to B<ssl> using
+the close flag B<c>.
+
+BIO_get_ssl() retrieves the SSL pointer of BIO B<b>, it can then be
+manipulated using the standard SSL library functions.
+
+BIO_set_ssl_mode() sets the SSL BIO mode to B<client>. If B<client>
+is 1 client mode is set. If B<client> is 0 server mode is set.
+
+BIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_bytes() sets the renegotiate byte count
+to B<num>. When set after every B<num> bytes of I/O (read and write)
+the SSL session is automatically renegotiated. B<num> must be at
+least 512 bytes.
+
+BIO_set_ssl_renegotiate_timeout() sets the renegotiate timeout to
+B<seconds>. When the renegotiate timeout elapses the sesssion is
+automatically renegotiated.
+
+BIO_get_num_renegotiates() returns the total number of session
+renegotiations due to I/O or timeout.
+
+BIO_new_ssl() allocates an SSL BIO using SSL_CTX B<ctx> and using
+client mode if B<client> is non zero.
+
+BIO_new_ssl_connect() creates a new BIO chain consisting of an
+SSL BIO (using B<ctx>) followed by a connect BIO.
+
+BIO_new_buffer_ssl_connect() creates a new BIO chain consisting
+of a buffering BIO, an SSL BIO (using B<ctx>) and a connect
+BIO.
+
+BIO_ssl_copy_session_id() copies an SSL session id between
+BIO chains B<from> and B<to>. It does this by locating the
+SSL BIOs in each chain and calling SSL_copy_session_id() on
+the internal SSL pointer.
+
+BIO_ssl_shutdown() closes down an SSL connection on BIO
+chain B<bio>. It does this by locating the SSL BIO in the
+chain and calling SSL_shutdown() on its internal SSL
+pointer.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+SSL 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 BIO_read() operation, one
+case where this happens is when SGC or step up occurs.
+
+In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later the SSL flag SSL_AUTO_RETRY can be
+set to disable this behaviour. That is when this flag is set
+an SSL BIO using a blocking transport will never request a
+retry.
+
+Since unknown BIO_ctrl() operations are sent through filter
+BIOs the servers name and port can be set using BIO_set_host()
+on the BIO returned by BIO_new_ssl_connect() without having
+to locate the connect BIO first.

+
+This SSL/TLS client example, attempts to retrieve a page from an
+SSL/TLS web server. The I/O routines are identical to those of the
+unencrypted example in L<BIO_s_connect(3)|BIO_s_connect(3)>.

+ /* We'd normally set some stuff like the verify paths and
+ * mode here because as things stand this will connect to
+ * any server whose certificate is signed by any CA.
