.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

way too many mistakes in technical documents.

"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" The \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 type is a wrapper around all types of socket addresses that OpenSSL deals with, currently transparently supporting \s-1AF_INET, AF_INET6\s0 and \s-1AF_UNIX\s0 according to what's available on the platform at hand.

\fBBIO_ADDR_new() creates a new unfilled \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0, to be used with routines that will fill it with information, such as \fBBIO_accept_ex().

\fBBIO_ADDR_free() frees a \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 created with BIO_ADDR_new().

\fBBIO_ADDR_clear() clears any data held within the provided \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 and sets it back to an uninitialised state.

\fBBIO_ADDR_rawmake() takes a protocol family, a byte array of size wherelen with an address in network byte order pointed at by where and a port number in network byte order in port (except for the \s-1AF_UNIX\s0 protocol family, where port is meaningless and therefore ignored) and populates the given \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 with them. In case this creates a \s-1AF_UNIX\s0 \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0, wherelen is expected to be the length of the path string (not including the terminating \s-1NUL,\s0 such as the result of a call to strlen()). Read on about the addresses in \*(L"\s-1RAW ADDRESSES\*(R"\s0 below.

\fBBIO_ADDR_family() returns the protocol family of the given \fB\s-1BIO_ADDR\s0. The possible non-error results are one of the constants \s-1AF_INET, AF_INET6\s0 and \s-1AF_UNIX.\s0 It will also return \s-1AF_UNSPEC\s0 if the \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 has not been initialised.

\fBBIO_ADDR_rawaddress() will write the raw address of the given \fB\s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 in the area pointed at by p if p is non-NULL, and will set *l to be the amount of bytes the raw address takes up if l is non-NULL. A technique to only find out the size of the address is a call with p set to \s-1NULL\s0. The raw address will be in network byte order, most significant byte first. In case this is a \s-1AF_UNIX\s0 \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0, l gets the length of the path string (not including the terminating \s-1NUL,\s0 such as the result of a call to strlen()). Read on about the addresses in \*(L"\s-1RAW ADDRESSES\*(R"\s0 below.

\fBBIO_ADDR_rawport() returns the raw port of the given \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0. The raw port will be in network byte order.

\fBBIO_ADDR_hostname_string() returns a character string with the hostname of the given \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0. If numeric is 1, the string will contain the numerical form of the address. This only works for \fB\s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 of the protocol families \s-1AF_INET\s0 and \s-1AF_INET6.\s0 The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with OPENSSL_free().

\fBBIO_ADDR_service_string() returns a character string with the service name of the port of the given \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0. If numeric is 1, the string will contain the port number. This only works for \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 of the protocol families \s-1AF_INET\s0 and \s-1AF_INET6.\s0 The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with OPENSSL_free().

\fBBIO_ADDR_path_string() returns a character string with the path of the given \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0. This only works for \s-1BIO_ADDR\s0 of the protocol family \s-1AF_UNIX.\s0 The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with OPENSSL_free().

"RAW ADDRESSES"
Header "RAW ADDRESSES" Both BIO_ADDR_rawmake() and BIO_ADDR_rawaddress() take a pointer to a network byte order address of a specific site. Internally, those are treated as a pointer to struct in_addr (for \s-1AF_INET\s0), struct in6_addr (for \s-1AF_INET6\s0) or char * (for \s-1AF_UNIX\s0), all depending on the protocol family the address is for.
"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" The string producing functions BIO_ADDR_hostname_string(), \fBBIO_ADDR_service_string() and BIO_ADDR_path_string() will return \s-1NULL\s0 on error and leave an error indication on the OpenSSL error stack.

All other functions described here return 0 or \s-1NULL\s0 when the information they should return isn't available.
