*
* This software may be freely distributed and used according to the terms
*
* Generally speaking, a fastbuf consists of a buffer and a set of callbacks.
* All front-end functions operate on the buffer and if the buffer becomes
- * empty or fills up, they ask the corresponding callback to solve the
+ * empty or fills up, they ask the corresponding callback to handle the
* situation. Back-ends then differ just in the definition of the callbacks.
- * The state of the fastbuf is represented by `struct fastbuf`, which
- * is a simple structure describing the state of the buffer and pointers
- * to the callback functions.
- *
- * When we are reading from the fastbuf, the buffer is laid out as follows:
- *
- * +----------------+---------------------------+
- * | read data | free space |
- * +----------------+---------------------------+
- * ^ ^ ^ ^
- * buffer bptr bstop bufend
- *
- * Here `bptr` points to the next character to be read. After the last character is
- * read, `bptr == bstop` and the `refill` callback gets called upon the next read
- * attempt to bring further data. This gives us an easy way how to implement bungetc().
- *
- * When writing, the situation looks like:
- *
- * +--------+--------------+--------------------+
- * | unused | written data | free space |
- * +--------+--------------+--------------------+
- * ^ ^ ^ ^
- * buffer bstop bptr bufend
- *
- * In this case, the `bptr` points at the position where the next character
- * will be written to. When we want to write, but `bptr == bufend`, we call
- * the `spout` hook to flush the data and get an empty buffer.
- *
- * Several dirty tricks can be played:
- *
- * - The `spout`/`refill` hooks can change not only `bptr` and `bstop`, but also
- * the location and size of the buffer; the fb-mem back-end takes advantage of it.
- * - In some cases, the user of the `bdirect` interface can be allowed to modify
- * the data in the buffer to avoid unnecessary copying. If the back-end
- * allows such modifications, it can set `fastbuf->can_overwrite_buffer` accordingly:
- * * 0 if no modification is allowed,
- * * 1 if the user can modify the buffer on the condition that
- * the modifications will be undone before calling the next
- * fastbuf operation
- * * 2 if the user is allowed to overwrite the data in the buffer
- * if bdirect_read_commit_modified() is called afterwards.
- * In this case, the back-end must be prepared for trimming
- * of the buffer which is done by the commit function.
*
+ * The state of the fastbuf is represented by a <<struct_fastbuf,`struct fastbuf`>>,
+ * which is a simple structure describing the state of the buffer (the pointers
+ * `buffer`, `bufend`), the front-end cursor (`bptr`), the back-end cursor (`bstop`),
+ * position of the back-end cursor in the file (`pos`), some flags (`flags`)
+ * and pointers to the callback functions.
+ *
+ * The buffer can be in one of the following states:
+ *
+ * 1. Flushed:
+ *
+ * +------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ * | unused | free space |
+ * +------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ * ^ ^ ^ ^
+ * buffer <= bstop (BE pos) <= bptr (FE pos) <= bufend
+ *
+ * * This schema describes a fastbuf after its initialization or bflush().
+ * * There is no cached data and we are ready for any read or write operation
+ * (well, only if the back-end supports it).
+ * * The interval `[bptr, bufend]` can be used by front-ends
+ * for writing. If it is empty, the `spout` callback gets called
+ * upon the first write attempt to allocate a new buffer. Otherwise
+ * the fastbuf silently comes to the writing mode.
+ * * When a front-end needs to read something, it calls the `refill` callback.
+ * * The pointers can be either all non-`NULL` or all NULL.
+ * * `bstop == bptr` in most back-ends, but it is not necessary. Some
+ * in-memory streams take advantage of this.
+ *
+ * 2. Reading:
+ *
+ * +------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ * | read data | unused |
+ * +------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ * ^ ^ ^ ^
+ * buffer <= bptr (FE pos) <= bstop (BE pos) <= bufend
+ *
+ * * If we try to read something, we get to the reading mode.
+ * * No writing is allowed until a flush operation. But note that @bflush()
+ * will simply set `bptr` to `bstop` before `spout`
+ * and it breaks the position of the front-end's cursor,
+ * so the user should seek afwards.
+ * * The interval `[buffer, bstop]` contains a block of data read by the back-end.
+ * `bptr` is the front-end's cursor which points to the next character to be read.
+ * After the last character is read, `bptr == bstop` and the `refill` callback
+ * gets called upon the next read attempt to bring further data.
+ * This gives us an easy way how to implement @bungetc().
+ *
+ * 3. Writing:
+ *
+ * +-----------------------+----------------+-----------------------+
+ * | unused | written data | free space |
+ * +-----------------------+----------------+-----------------------+
+ * ^ ^ ^ ^
+ * buffer <= bstop (BE pos) < bptr (FE pos) <= bufend
+ *
+ * * This schema corresponds to the situation after a write attempt.
+ * * No reading is allowed until a flush operation.
+ * * The `bptr` points at the position where the next character
+ * will be written to. When we want to write, but `bptr == bufend`, we call
+ * the `spout` hook to flush the witten data and get an empty buffer.
+ * * `bstop` usually points at the beginning of the written data,
+ * but it is not necessary.
+ *
+ *
+ * Rules for back-ends:
+ *
+ * - Front-ends are only allowed to change the value of `bptr`, some flags
+ * and if a fatal error occurs, then also `bstop`. Back-ends can rely on it.
+ * - `buffer <= bstop <= bufend` and `buffer <= bptr <= bufend`.
+ * - `pos` should be the real position in the file corresponding to the location of `bstop` in the buffer.
+ * It can be modified by any back-end's callback, but the position of `bptr` (`pos + (bptr - bstop)`)
+ * must stay unchanged after `refill` or `spout`.
+ * - Failed callbacks (except `close`) should use @bthrow().
+ * - Any callback pointer may be NULL in case the callback is not implemented.
+ * - Callbacks can change not only `bptr` and `bstop`, but also the location and size of the buffer;
+ * the fb-mem back-end takes advantage of it.
+ *
+ * - Initialization:
+ * * out: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (flushed).
+ * * @fb_tie() should be called on the newly created fastbuf.
+ *
+ * - `refill`:
+ * * in: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (reading or flushed).
+ * * out: `buffer <= bptr <= bstop <= bufend` (reading).
+ * * Resulting `bptr == bstop` signals the end of file.
+ * The next reading attempt will again call `refill` which can succeed this time.
+ * * The callback must also return zero on EOF (iff `bptr == bstop`).
+ *
+ * - `spout`:
+ * * in: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (writing or flushed).
+ * * out: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr < bufend` (flushed).
+ *
+ * - `seek`:
+ * * in: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (flushed).
+ * * in: `(ofs >= 0 && whence == SEEK_SET) || (ofs <= 0 && whence == SEEK_END)`.
+ * * out: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (flushed).
+ *
+ * - `close`:
+ * * in: `buffer <= bstop <= bptr <= bufend` (flushed or after @bthrow()).
+ * * `close` must always free all internal structures, even when it throws an exception.
