SSLgetfd(3) OpenSSL SSLgetfd(3)

NAME
       SSLgetfd - get file descriptor linked to an SSL object

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        int SSLgetfd(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSLgetrfd(const SSL *ssl);
        int SSLgetwfd(const SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION
       SSLgetfd() returns the file descriptor which is linked to ssssll.
       SSLgetrfd() and SSLgetwfd() return the file descriptors for the
       read or the write channel, which can be different. If the read and the
       write channel are different, SSLgetfd() 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 ssssll.
