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 B<a> is NULL nothing is done. + +=head1 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. + +=head1 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. + +=head1 HISTORY + +BIO_set() was removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0 as BIO type is now opaque. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +Create a memory BIO: + + BIO *mem = BIO_new(BIO_s_mem()); + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2000-2019 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
