NAME
       bio - I/O abstraction

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/bio.h>

       TBA

DESCRIPTION
       A BIO is an I/O abstraction, it hides many of the underlying I/O details from an
       application. If an application uses a BIO for its I/O it can transparently handle SSL
       connections, unencrypted network connections and file I/O.

       There are two type of BIO, a source/sink BIO and a filter BIO.

       As its name implies a source/sink BIO is a source and/or sink of data, examples include a
       socket BIO and a file BIO.

       A filter BIO takes data from one BIO and passes it through to another, or the application.
       The data may be left unmodified (for example a message digest BIO) or translated (for
       example an encryption BIO). The effect of a filter BIO may change according to the I/O
       operation it is performing: for example an encryption BIO will encrypt data if it is being
       written to and decrypt data if it is being read from.

       BIOs can be joined together to form a chain (a single BIO is a chain with one component).
       A chain normally consist of one source/sink BIO and one or more filter BIOs. Data read
       from or written to the first BIO then traverses the chain to the end (normally a
       source/sink BIO).
