The connection already had its handshake completed, app data flow had already occurred (i.e. it is not a new or early’ish context).  So, trying to see if it is possible to serialize the openssl state, shove it through a unix domain socket to the target process and then have the target process unpack the openssl state and resume IO.

For what it’s worth, I have also wished for something like this, where I could pass a file descriptor as well as the OpenSSL state over a socket to a separate process.
