.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& #include <openssl/bio.h>
\&
\& const BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_fd(void);
\&

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBBIO_s_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor BIO method. This is a wrapper
round the platforms file descriptor routines such as \fBread()\fR and \fBwrite()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_read_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_write_ex()\fR read or write the underlying descriptor.
\&\fBBIO_puts()\fR is supported but \fBBIO_gets()\fR is not.
.PP
If the close flag is set then \fBclose()\fR is called on the underlying
file descriptor when the BIO is freed.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_reset()\fR attempts to change the file pointer to the start of file
such as by using \fBlseek(fd, 0, 0)\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_seek()\fR sets the file pointer to position \fBofs\fR from start of file
such as by using \fBlseek(fd, ofs, 0)\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_tell()\fR returns the current file position such as by calling
\&\fBlseek(fd, 0, 1)\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_set_fd()\fR sets the file descriptor of BIO \fBb\fR to \fBfd\fR and the close
flag to \fBc\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_get_fd()\fR places the file descriptor of BIO \fBb\fR in \fBc\fR if it is not NULL.
It also returns the file descriptor.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_new_fd()\fR returns a file descriptor BIO using \fBfd\fR and \fBclose_flag\fR.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
The behaviour of \fBBIO_read_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_write_ex()\fR depends on the behavior of the
platforms \fBread()\fR and \fBwrite()\fR calls on the descriptor. If the underlying
file descriptor is in a non blocking mode then the BIO will behave in the
manner described in the \fBBIO_read_ex\fR\|(3) and \fBBIO_should_retry\fR\|(3)
manual pages.
.PP
File descriptor BIOs should not be used for socket I/O. Use socket BIOs
instead.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_set_fd()\fR and \fBBIO_get_fd()\fR are implemented as macros.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBBIO_s_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor BIO method.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_set_fd()\fR returns 1 on success or <=0 for failure.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_get_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor or \-1 if the BIO has not
been initialized. It also returns zero and negative values if other error occurs.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_new_fd()\fR returns the newly allocated BIO or NULL is an error
occurred.
.SH EXAMPLES
.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
This is a file descriptor BIO version of "Hello World":
.PP
.Vb 1
\& BIO *out;
\&
\& out = BIO_new_fd(fileno(stdout), BIO_NOCLOSE);
\& BIO_printf(out, "Hello World\en");
\& BIO_free(out);
