DESCRIPTION
       The BIO_ADDR type is a wrapper around all types of socket addresses
       that OpenSSL deals with, currently transparently supporting AF_INET,
       AF_INET6 and AF_UNIX according to what's available on the platform at
       hand.
       BIO_ADDR_new() creates a new unfilled BIO_ADDR, to be used with
       routines that will fill it with information, such as BIO_accept_ex().
       BIO_ADDR_free() frees a BIO_ADDR created with BIO_ADDR_new().
       BIO_ADDR_clear() clears any data held within the provided BIO_ADDR and
       sets it back to an uninitialised state.
       BIO_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 AF_UNIX
       protocol family, where port is meaningless and therefore ignored) and
       populates the given BIO_ADDR with them.  In case this creates a AF_UNIX
       BIO_ADDR, wherelen is expected to be the length of the path string (not
       including the terminating NUL, such as the result of a call to
       strlen()).  Read on about the addresses in "RAW ADDRESSES" below.
       BIO_ADDR_family() returns the protocol family of the given BIO_ADDR.
       The possible non-error results are one of the constants AF_INET,
       AF_INET6 and AF_UNIX. It will also return AF_UNSPEC if the BIO_ADDR has
       not been initialised.
       BIO_ADDR_rawaddress() will write the raw address of the given BIO_ADDR
       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 NULL.
       The raw address will be in network byte order, most significant byte
       first.  In case this is a AF_UNIX BIO_ADDR, l gets the length of the
       path string (not including the terminating NUL, such as the result of a
       call to strlen()).  Read on about the addresses in "RAW ADDRESSES"
       below.
       BIO_ADDR_rawport() returns the raw port of the given BIO_ADDR.  The raw
       port will be in network byte order.
       BIO_ADDR_hostname_string() returns a character string with the hostname
       of the given BIO_ADDR.  If numeric is 1, the string will contain the
       numerical form of the address.  This only works for BIO_ADDR of the
       protocol families AF_INET and AF_INET6.  The returned string has been
       allocated on the heap and must be freed with OPENSSL_free().
       BIO_ADDR_service_string() returns a character string with the service
       name of the port of the given BIO_ADDR.  If numeric is 1, the string
       will contain the port number.  This only works for BIO_ADDR of the
       protocol families AF_INET and AF_INET6.  The returned string has been
       allocated on the heap and must be freed with OPENSSL_free().
       BIO_ADDR_path_string() returns a character string with the path of the
       given BIO_ADDR.  This only works for BIO_ADDR of the protocol family
       AF_UNIX.  The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must
       be freed with OPENSSL_free().
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 AF_INET), struct in6_addr
       (for AF_INET6) or char * (for AF_UNIX), all depending on the protocol
       family the address is for.
RETURN VALUES
       The string producing functions BIO_ADDR_hostname_string(),
       BIO_ADDR_service_string() and BIO_ADDR_path_string() will return NULL
       on error and leave an error indication on the OpenSSL error stack.
       All other functions described here return 0 or NULL when the
       information they should return isn't available.
