9 /* SUMMARY
10 /*	generic buffer
11 /* SYNOPSIS
12 /*	#include <vbuf.h>
13 /* DESCRIPTION
14 /* .nf
15 
16  /*
17   * The VBUF buffer is defined by 1) its structure, by 2) the VBUF_GET() and
18   * 3) VBUF_PUT() operations that automatically handle buffer empty and
19   * buffer full conditions, and 4) by the VBUF_SPACE() operation that allows
20   * the user to reserve buffer space ahead of time, to allow for situations
21   * where calling VBUF_PUT() is not possible or desirable.
22   *
23   * The VBUF buffer does not specify primitives for memory allocation or
24   * deallocation. The purpose is to allow different applications to have
25   * different strategies: a memory-resident buffer; a memory-mapped file; or
26   * a stdio-like window to an open file. Each application provides its own
27   * get(), put() and space() methods that perform the necessary magic.
28   *
29   * This interface is pretty normal. With one exception: the number of bytes
30   * left to read is negated. This is done so that we can change direction
31   * between reading and writing on the fly. The alternative would be to use
32   * separate read and write counters per buffer.
