SSL_GET_FD(3)		     OpenSSL		    SSL_GET_FD(3)

NAME
     SSL_get_fd - get file descriptor linked to an SSL object

SYNOPSIS
      #include <openssl/ssl.h>

      int SSL_get_fd(const SSL *ssl);
      int SSL_get_rfd(const SSL *ssl);
      int SSL_get_wfd(const SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION
     SSL_get_fd() returns the file descriptor which is linked to
     ssl. SSL_get_rfd() and SSL_get_wfd() return the file
     descriptors for the read or the write channel, which can be
     different. If the read and the write channel are different,
     SSL_get_fd() will return the file descriptor of the read
     channel.

RETURN VALUES
     The following return values can occur:

     -1	 The operation failed, because the underlying BIO is not
	 of the correct type (suitable for file descriptors).

     >=0 The file descriptor linked to ssl.
