.... 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'.

Title "BIO_S_ACCEPT 3"
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
Using accept BIOs, \s-1TCP/IP\s0 connections can be accepted and data transferred using only \s-1BIO\s0 routines. In this way any platform specific operations are hidden by the \s-1BIO\s0 abstraction.
Read and write operations on an accept \s-1BIO\s0 will perform I/O on the underlying connection. If no connection is established and the port (see below) is set up properly then the \s-1BIO\s0 waits for an incoming connection.
Accept BIOs support BIO_puts() but not BIO_gets().
If the close flag is set on an accept \s-1BIO\s0 then any active connection on that chain is shutdown and the socket closed when the \s-1BIO\s0 is freed.
Calling BIO_reset() on an accept \s-1BIO\s0 will close any active connection and reset the \s-1BIO\s0 into a state where it awaits another incoming connection.
\fBBIO_get_fd() and BIO_set_fd() can be called to retrieve or set the accept socket. See BIO_s_fd\|(3)
\fBBIO_set_accept_name() uses the string name to set the accept name. The name is represented as a string of the form \*(L"host:port\*(R", where \*(L"host\*(R" is the interface to use and \*(L"port\*(R" is the port. The host can be \*(L"*\*(R" or empty which is interpreted as meaning any interface. If the host is an IPv6 address, it has to be enclosed in brackets, for example \*(L"[::1]:https\*(R". \*(L"port\*(R" has the same syntax as the port specified in BIO_set_conn_port() for connect BIOs, that is it can be a numerical port string or a string to lookup using getservbyname() and a string table.
\fBBIO_set_accept_port() uses the string port to set the accept port. \*(L"port\*(R" has the same syntax as the port specified in \fBBIO_set_conn_port() for connect BIOs, that is it can be a numerical port string or a string to lookup using getservbyname() and a string table.
\fBBIO_new_accept() combines BIO_new() and BIO_set_accept_name() into a single call: that is it creates a new accept \s-1BIO\s0 with port \fBhost_port.
\fBBIO_set_nbio_accept() sets the accept socket to blocking mode (the default) if n is 0 or non blocking mode if n is 1.
\fBBIO_set_accept_bios() can be used to set a chain of BIOs which will be duplicated and prepended to the chain when an incoming connection is received. This is useful if, for example, a buffering or \s-1SSL BIO\s0 is required for each connection. The chain of BIOs must not be freed after this call, they will be automatically freed when the accept \s-1BIO\s0 is freed.
\fBBIO_set_bind_mode() and BIO_get_bind_mode() set and retrieve the current bind mode. If \s-1BIO_BIND_NORMAL\s0 (the default) is set then another socket cannot be bound to the same port. If \fB\s-1BIO_BIND_REUSEADDR\s0 is set then other sockets can bind to the same port. If \s-1BIO_BIND_REUSEADDR_IF_UNUSED\s0 is set then and attempt is first made to use \s-1BIO_BIN_NORMAL,\s0 if this fails and the port is not in use then a second attempt is made using \s-1BIO_BIND_REUSEADDR\s0.
\fBBIO_do_accept() serves two functions. When it is first called, after the accept \s-1BIO\s0 has been setup, it will attempt to create the accept socket and bind an address to it. Second and subsequent calls to BIO_do_accept() will await an incoming connection, or request a retry in non blocking mode.
When a connection is established a new socket \s-1BIO\s0 is created for the connection and appended to the chain. That is the chain is now accept->socket. This effectively means that attempting I/O on an initial accept socket will await an incoming connection then perform I/O on it.
If any additional BIOs have been set using BIO_set_accept_bios() then they are placed between the socket and the accept \s-1BIO,\s0 that is the chain will be accept->otherbios->socket.
If a server wishes to process multiple connections (as is normally the case) then the accept \s-1BIO\s0 must be made available for further incoming connections. This can be done by waiting for a connection and then calling:
.Vb 1 connection = BIO_pop(accept); .Ve
After this call connection will contain a \s-1BIO\s0 for the recently established connection and accept will now be a single \s-1BIO\s0 again which can be used to await further incoming connections. If no further connections will be accepted the accept can be freed using BIO_free().
If only a single connection will be processed it is possible to perform I/O using the accept \s-1BIO\s0 itself. This is often undesirable however because the accept \s-1BIO\s0 will still accept additional incoming connections. This can be resolved by using BIO_pop() (see above) and freeing up the accept \s-1BIO\s0 after the initial connection.
If the underlying accept socket is nonblocking and BIO_do_accept() is called to await an incoming connection it is possible for \fBBIO_should_io_special() with the reason \s-1BIO_RR_ACCEPT.\s0 If this happens then it is an indication that an accept attempt would block: the application should take appropriate action to wait until the underlying socket has accepted a connection and retry the call.
\fBBIO_set_accept_name(), BIO_get_accept_name(), BIO_set_accept_port(), \fBBIO_get_accept_port(), BIO_set_nbio_accept(), BIO_set_accept_bios(), \fBBIO_get_peer_name(), BIO_get_peer_port(), \fBBIO_get_accept_ip_family(), BIO_set_accept_ip_family(), \fBBIO_set_bind_mode(), BIO_get_bind_mode() and BIO_do_accept() are macros.
\fBBIO_get_accept_name() returns the accept name or \s-1NULL\s0 on error. \fBBIO_get_peer_name() returns the peer name or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.
\fBBIO_get_accept_port() returns the accept port as a string or \s-1NULL\s0 on error. \fBBIO_get_peer_port() returns the peer port as a string or \s-1NULL\s0 on error. \fBBIO_get_accept_ip_family() returns the \s-1IP\s0 family or -1 on error.
\fBBIO_get_bind_mode() returns the set of \s-1BIO_BIND\s0 flags, or -1 on failure.
\fBBIO_new_accept() returns a \s-1BIO\s0 or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.
