ytsaurus-rpc 0.3.0

//! Bus packet framing: the sans-io half of layer 1.
//!
//! A packet is a 36-byte fixed header, an optional variable header of per-part
//! sizes and checksums, and then the parts themselves. Everything is
//! little-endian. The layout is `TPacketHeader` in
//! `yt/yt/core/bus/tcp/packet.cpp`, declared under `#pragma pack(push, 4)`, so
//! the `ui64` checksum sits at offset 28 with no padding in front of it:
//!
//! ```text
//! offset  size  field
//!      0     4  signature = 0x78616d4f
//!      4     2  type      (EPacketType)
//!      6     2  flags     (EPacketFlags)
//!      8    16  packet id (four little-endian u32 words)
//!     24     4  part count
//!     28     8  checksum of bytes 0..28
//! ```
//!
//! followed, when the packet has a variable header, by
//!
//! ```text
//!   u32 part_sizes[part_count]
//!   u64 part_checksums[part_count]
//!   u64 checksum of everything above in this block
//! ```
//!
//! and then each non-null part's bytes back to back.
//!
//! There is no `async` in this file, and there must not be: it is the part that
//! parses untrusted bytes off a socket, so it stays a pure function of its
//! input and is tested without a runtime. Fuzzing it is gate E in
//! `docs/rpc-compatibility.md`, and is not done yet.
