.. function:: ssl.wrap_socket(sock, server_side=False, keyfile=None, certfile=None, cert_reqs=CERT_NONE, cadata=None, server_hostname=None, do_handshake=True)
Takes a `stream` *sock* (usually socket.socket instance of ``SOCK_STREAM`` type),
and returns an instance of ssl.SSLSocket, which wraps the underlying stream in
an SSL context. Returned object has the usual `stream` interface methods like
``read()``, ``write()``, etc.
A server-side SSL socket should be created from a normal socket returned from
:meth:`~socket.socket.accept()` on a non-SSL listening server socket.
- *do_handshake* determines whether the handshake is done as part of the ``wrap_socket``
or whether it is deferred to be done as part of the initial reads or writes
(there is no ``do_handshake`` method as in CPython).
For blocking sockets doing the handshake immediately is standard. For non-blocking
sockets (i.e. when the *sock* passed into ``wrap_socket`` is in non-blocking mode)
the handshake should generally be deferred because otherwise ``wrap_socket`` blocks
until it completes. Note that in AXTLS the handshake can be deferred until the first
read or write but it then blocks until completion.
Wrap the given *sock* and return a new wrapped-socket object. The implementation
of this function is to first create an `SSLContext` and then call the `SSLContext.wrap_socket`
method on that context object. The arguments *sock*, *server_side* and *server_hostname* are
passed through unchanged to the method call. The argument *do_handshake* is passed through as
*do_handshake_on_connect*. The remaining arguments have the following behaviour:
- *cert_reqs* determines whether the peer (server or client) must present a valid certificate.

class SSLContext

.. class:: SSLContext(protocol, /)
Create a new SSLContext instance. The *protocol* argument must be one of the ``PROTOCOL_*``
constants.
.. method:: SSLContext.wrap_socket(sock, *, server_side=False, do_handshake_on_connect=True, server_hostname=None)

- *server_hostname* is for use as a client, and sets the hostname to check against the received

to present the proper certificate.
