Data written to +the null sink is discarded, reads return EOF. + +=head1 NOTES + +A null sink BIO behaves in a similar manner to the Unix /dev/null +device. + +A null bio can be placed on the end of a chain to discard any data +passed through it. + +A null sink is useful if, for example, an application wishes to digest some +data by writing through a digest bio but not send the digested data anywhere. +Since a BIO chain must normally include a source/sink BIO this can be achieved +by adding a null sink BIO to the end of the chain + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +BIO_s_null() returns the null sink BIO method. + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2000-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
