8 * Write a packetized stream, where each line is preceded by
9 * its length (including the header) as a 4-byte hex number.
10 * A length of 'zero' means end of stream (and a length of 1-3
11 * would be an error).
13 * This is all pretty stupid, but we use this packetized line
14 * format to make a streaming format possible without ever
15 * over-running the read buffers. That way we'll never read
16 * into what might be the pack data (which should go to another
17 * process entirely).
19 * The writing side could use stdio, but since the reading
20 * side can't, we stay with pure read/write interfaces.

36 * Read a packetized line into the buffer, which must be at least size bytes
37 * long. The return value specifies the number of bytes read into the buffer.
39 * If src_buffer and *src_buffer are not NULL, it should point to a buffer
40 * containing the packet data to parse, of at least *src_len bytes. After the
41 * function returns, src_buf will be incremented and src_len decremented by the
42 * number of bytes consumed.
44 * If src_buffer (or *src_buffer) is NULL, then data is read from the
45 * descriptor "fd".
47 * If options does not contain PACKET_READ_GENTLE_ON_EOF, we will die under any
48 * of the following conditions:
50 * 1. Read error from descriptor.
52 * 2. Protocol error from the remote (e.g., bogus length characters).
54 * 3. Receiving a packet larger than "size" bytes.
56 * 4. Truncated output from the remote (e.g., we expected a packet but got
57 * EOF, or we got a partial packet followed by EOF).
59 * If options does contain PACKET_READ_GENTLE_ON_EOF, we will not die on
60 * condition 4 (truncated input), but instead return -1. However, we will still
61 * die for the other 3 conditions.
63 * If options contains PACKET_READ_CHOMP_NEWLINE, a trailing newline (if
64 * present) is removed from the buffer before returning.
