aria2-core 0.2.2

//! Zero-copy data transfer utilities using Linux `splice(2)`.
//!
//! `splice(2)` moves data between two file descriptors via a kernel pipe
//! buffer without copying the data through user space. For downloads to
//! regular files this enables the pipeline `socket -> pipe -> file`, all
//! inside the kernel, eliminating the user-space `read`/`write` bounce.
//!
//! # Platform Support
//!
//! - **Linux**: Full `splice(2)` support via [`libc`]. The public
//!   [`splice_transfer`] function performs the kernel-mediated transfer.
//! - **Other platforms** (Windows, macOS, ...): [`splice_transfer`] always
//!   returns [`Err`](std::io::Result::Err) with kind
//!   [`Unsupported`](std::io::ErrorKind::Unsupported). Callers must fall back
//!   to a plain `read` + `write` loop. Use [`is_splice_supported`] to gate
//!   the fast path at runtime.
//!
//! # Safety
//!
//! All `splice(2)` invocations are confined to `#[cfg(target_os = "linux")]`
//! code paths and operate on valid, open file descriptors owned by the
//! caller. A RAII [`PipeGuard`] guarantees the intermediate pipe descriptors
//! are closed on every exit path (including early `return` on error and
//! panics).

// `RawFd` only exists in `std::os::fd` on Unix-like platforms. On Windows we

// only present to satisfy the shared function signature.

/// A temporary kernel pipe is created and used as an intermediate buffer:
/// each round performs `splice(fd_in -> pipe)` followed by a fully draining
/// `splice(pipe -> fd_out)`. This keeps the entire byte path inside the
/// kernel — no user-space buffer is ever touched.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `fd_in`  - Source file descriptor (e.g. a TCP socket). Must be seekable
///   or a stream; if `off_in` is `None`, the fd's current offset is used and
///   advanced by the kernel.
/// * `off_in` - Starting offset in the source. `None` uses / advances the fd's
///   own file offset. When `Some`, the kernel updates the offset in place.
/// * `fd_out` - Destination file descriptor (must be a regular file or a
///   pipe — `splice` cannot target a socket with this helper).
/// * `off_out`- Starting offset in the destination, semantics mirror `off_in`.
/// * `len`    - Maximum number of bytes to transfer.
///
/// # Returns
///
/// The number of bytes actually transferred. `0` indicates EOF on the source
/// before any byte was read in the current call.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns [`io::Error`] on any underlying syscall failure. Transient
/// `EINTR` interruptions are retried automatically and never surface to the
/// caller. On non-Linux platforms this always returns
/// [`Unsupported`](std::io::ErrorKind::Unsupported).
///
