SSL_get_fd(3)

NAME

SSL_get_fd - Get file descriptor linked to an SSL object

SYNOPSIS

#include <openssl/ssl.h> int SSL_get_fd( SSL *ssl ); int SSL_get_rfd( SSL *ssl ); int SSL_get_wfd( SSL *ssl );

DESCRIPTION

The SSL_get_fd() function returns the file descriptor which is linked to ssl. The SSL_get_rfd() and SSL_get_wfd() functions return the file descriptors for the read or the write channel, which can be different. If the read and the write channel are different, the SSL_get_fd() function will return the file descriptor of the read channel.

RETURN VALUES

The following return values can occur: --1 The operation failed, because the underlying BIO is not of the correct type (suitable for file descriptors). >=0 The file descriptor linked to ssl.
