     SSL_set_fd() sets the file descriptor ffffdddd as the input/output
     facility for the TLS/SSL (encrypted) side of ssssssssllll. ffffdddd will
     typically be the socket file descriptor of a network
     connection.

     When performing the operation, a ssssoooocccckkkkeeeetttt BBBBIIIIOOOO is automatically
     created to interface between the ssssssssllll and ffffdddd. The BIO and
     hence the SSL engine inherit the behaviour of ffffdddd. If ffffdddd is
     non-blocking, the ssssssssllll will also have non-blocking behaviour.

     If there was already a BIO connected to ssssssssllll, BIO_free() will
     be called (for both the reading and writing side, if
     different).

     SSL_set_rfd() and SSL_set_wfd() perform the respective
     action, but only for the read channel or the write channel,
     which can be set independently.

     The following return values can occur:

     0   The operation failed. Check the error stack to find out
         why.

     1   The operation succeeded.
