BIO_NEW(3)                          OpenSSL                         BIO_NEW(3)
NAME
       BIO_new, BIO_up_ref, BIO_free, BIO_vfree, BIO_free_all - BIO allocation
       and freeing functions
SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/bio.h>
        BIO *  BIO_new(const BIO_METHOD *type);
        int    BIO_up_ref(BIO *a);
        int    BIO_free(BIO *a);
        void   BIO_vfree(BIO *a);
        void   BIO_free_all(BIO *a);
DESCRIPTION
       The BIO_new() function returns a new BIO using method type.
       BIO_up_ref() increments the reference count associated with the BIO
       object.
       BIO_free() frees up a single BIO, BIO_vfree() also frees up a single
       BIO but it does not return a value.  If a is NULL nothing is done.
       Calling BIO_free() may also have some effect on the underlying I/O
       structure, for example it may close the file being referred to under
       certain circumstances. For more details see the individual BIO_METHOD
       descriptions.
       BIO_free_all() frees up an entire BIO chain, it does not halt if an
       error occurs freeing up an individual BIO in the chain.  If a is NULL
       nothing is done.
RETURN VALUES
       BIO_new() returns a newly created BIO or NULL if the call fails.
       BIO_up_ref() and BIO_free() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
       BIO_free_all() and BIO_vfree() do not return values.
NOTES
       If BIO_free() is called on a BIO chain it will only free one BIO
       resulting in a memory leak.
       Calling BIO_free_all() on a single BIO has the same effect as calling
       BIO_free() on it other than the discarded return value.
HISTORY
       BIO_set() was removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0 as BIO type is now opaque.
EXAMPLES
       Create a memory BIO:
        BIO *mem = BIO_new(BIO_s_mem());
