/* The BF_* macros designate Buffer Flags, which may be ORed in the bit field
 * member 'flags' in struct buffer. Here we have several types of flags :
 *
 *   - pure status flags, reported by the lower layer, which must be cleared
 *     before doing further I/O :
 *     BF_*_NULL, BF_*_PARTIAL
 *
 *   - pure status flags, reported by mid-layer, which must also be cleared
 *     before doing further I/O :
 *     BF_*_TIMEOUT, BF_*_ERROR
 *
 *   - read-only indicators reported by lower levels :
 *     BF_STREAMER, BF_STREAMER_FAST
 *
 *   - write-once status flags reported by the mid-level : BF_SHUTR, BF_SHUTW
 *
 *   - persistent control flags managed only by higher level :
 *     BF_SHUT*_NOW, BF_*_ENA, BF_HIJACK
 *
 * The flags have been arranged for readability, so that the read and write
 * bits have se same position in a byte (read being the lower byte and write
 * the second one).

/* Note about the buffer structure

   The buffer contains two length indicators, one to_forward counter and one
   send_max limit. First, it must be understood that the buffer is in fact
   split in two parts :
     - the visible data (->data, for ->l bytes)
     - the invisible data, typically in kernel buffers forwarded directly from
       the source stream sock to the destination stream sock (->pipe->data
       bytes). Those are used only during forward.

   In order not to mix data streams, the producer may only feed the invisible
   data with data to forward, and only when the visible buffer is empty. The
   consumer may not always be able to feed the invisible buffer due to platform
   limitations (lack of kernel support).

   Conversely, the consumer must always take data from the invisible data first
   before ever considering visible data. There is no limit to the size of data
   to consume from the invisible buffer, as platform-specific implementations
   will rarely leave enough control on this. So any byte fed into the invisible
   buffer is expected to reach the destination file descriptor, by any means.
   However, it's the consumer's responsibility to ensure that the invisible
   data has been entirely consumed before consuming visible data. This must be
   reflected by ->pipe->data. This is very important as this and only this can
   ensure strict ordering of data between buffers.

   The producer is responsible for decreasing ->to_forward and increasing
   ->send_max. The ->to_forward parameter indicates how many bytes may be fed
   into either data buffer without waking the parent up. The ->send_max
   parameter says how many bytes may be read from the visible buffer. Thus it
   may never exceed ->l. This parameter is updated by any buffer_write() as
   well as any data forwarded through the visible buffer.

   The consumer is responsible for decreasing ->send_max when it sends data
   from the visible buffer, and ->pipe->data when it sends data from the
   invisible buffer.

   A real-world example consists in part in an HTTP response waiting in a
   buffer to be forwarded. We know the header length (300) and the amount of
   data to forward (content-length=9000). The buffer already contains 1000
   bytes of data after the 300 bytes of headers. Thus the caller will set
   ->send_max to 300 indicating that it explicitly wants to send those data,
   and set ->to_forward to 9000 (content-length). This value must be normalised
   immediately after updating ->to_forward : since there are already 1300 bytes
   in the buffer, 300 of which are already counted in ->send_max, and that size
   is smaller than ->to_forward, we must update ->send_max to 1300 to flush the
   whole buffer, and reduce ->to_forward to 8000. After that, the producer may
   try to feed the additional data through the invisible buffer using a
   platform-specific method such as splice().
