Well it would presumably be a descriptor like source-sink BIO. The
actual base number you give it is fairly arbitrary but cannot exceed
255. You might want to give it a value larger than the existing ones so
it wont clash with any future development, 0x80 for example.
So it would be (0x80 | BIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK | BIO_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR).
Which reminds me, that stuff in bio.h shouldn't have all those hardcoded
values...
