+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+BIO_set_callback_ex() and BIO_get_callback_ex() set and retrieve the BIO
+callback. The callback is called during most high level BIO operations. It can
+be used for debugging purposes to trace operations on a BIO or to modify its
+operation.
+
+BIO_set_callback() and BIO_get_callback() set and retrieve the old format BIO
+callback. New code should not use these functions, but they are retained for
+backwards compatibility. Any callback set via BIO_set_callback_ex() will get
+called in preference to any set by BIO_set_callback().
+
+BIO_set_callback_arg() and BIO_get_callback_arg() are macros which can be
+used to set and retrieve an argument for use in the callback.
+
+BIO_debug_callback() is a standard debugging callback which prints
+out information relating to each BIO operation. If the callback
+argument is set it is interpreted as a BIO to send the information
+to, otherwise stderr is used.
+
+BIO_callback_fn_ex() is the type of the callback function and BIO_callback_fn()
+is the type of the old format callback function. The meaning of each argument
+is described below:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<b>
+
+The BIO the callback is attached to is passed in B<b>.
+
+=item B<oper>
+
+B<oper> is set to the operation being performed. For some operations
+the callback is called twice, once before and once after the actual
+operation, the latter case has B<oper> or'ed with BIO_CB_RETURN.
+
+=item B<len>
+
+The length of the data requested to be read or written. This is only useful if
+B<oper> is BIO_CB_READ, BIO_CB_WRITE or BIO_CB_GETS.
+
+=item B<argp> B<argi> B<argl>
+
+The meaning of the arguments B<argp>, B<argi> and B<argl> depends on
+the value of B<oper>, that is the operation being performed.
+
+=item B<processed>
+
+B<processed> is a pointer to a location which will be updated with the amount of
+data that was actually read or written. Only used for BIO_CB_READ, BIO_CB_WRITE,
+BIO_CB_GETS and BIO_CB_PUTS.
+
+=item B<ret>
+
+B<ret> is the return value that would be returned to the
+application if no callback were present. The actual value returned
+is the return value of the callback itself. In the case of callbacks
+called before the actual BIO operation 1 is placed in B<ret>, if
+the return value is not positive it will be immediately returned to
+the application and the BIO operation will not be performed.
+
+=back
+
+The callback should normally simply return B<ret> when it has
+finished processing, unless it specifically wishes to modify the
+value returned to the application.
+
+=head1 CALLBACK OPERATIONS
+
+In the notes below, B<callback> defers to the actual callback
+function that is called.
