+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_new_stream, SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI - create a new locally-initiated QUIC stream
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ #define SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI (1U << 0)
+ SSL *SSL_new_stream(SSL *ssl, uint64_t flags);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The SSL_new_stream() function, when passed a QUIC connection SSL object, creates
+a new locally-initiated bidirectional or unidirectional QUIC stream and returns
+the newly created QUIC stream SSL object.
+
+If the B<SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI> flag is passed, a unidirectional stream is
+created; else a bidirectional stream is created.
+
+To retrieve the stream ID of the newly created stream, use
+L<SSL_get_stream_id(3)>.
+
+It is the caller's responsibility to free the QUIC stream SSL object using
+L<SSL_free(3)>. The lifetime of the QUIC connection SSL object must exceed that
+of the QUIC stream SSL object; in other words, the QUIC stream SSL object must
+be freed first.
+
+Once a stream has been created using SSL_new_stream(), it may be used in the
+normal way using L<SSL_read(3)> and L<SSL_write(3)>.
+
+This function can only be used to create stream objects for locally-initiated
+streams. To accept incoming streams initiated by a peer, use
+L<SSL_accept_stream(3)>.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_new_stream() returns a new stream object, or NULL on error.
+
+This function fails if called on a QUIC stream SSL object or on a non-QUIC SSL
+object.
