     BIO_s_socket() returns the socket BIO method. This is a
     wrapper round the platform's socket routines.

     BIO_read() and BIO_write() read or write the underlying
     socket.  BIO_puts() is supported but BIO_gets() is not.

     If the close flag is set then the socket is shut down and
     closed when the BIO is freed.

     BIO_set_fd() sets the socket of BIO bbbb to ffffdddd and the close
     flag to cccclllloooosssseeee_ffffllllaaaagggg.

     BIO_get_fd() places the socket in cccc if it is not NULL, it
     also returns the socket. If cccc is not NULL it should be of
     type (int *).

     BIO_new_socket() returns a socket BIO using ssssoooocccckkkk and
     cccclllloooosssseeee_ffffllllaaaagggg.

     Socket BIOs also support any relevant functionality of file
     descriptor BIOs.

     The reason for having separate file descriptor and socket
     BIOs is that on some platforms sockets are not file
     descriptors and use distinct I/O routines, Windows is one
     such platform. Any code mixing the two will not work on all
     platforms.

     BIO_set_fd() and BIO_get_fd() are macros.

     BIO_s_socket() returns the socket BIO method.

     BIO_set_fd() always returns 1.

     BIO_get_fd() returns the socket or -1 if the BIO has not
     been initialized.

     BIO_new_socket() returns the newly allocated BIO or NULL is
     an error occurred.
