1//! Uniform interface to send and receive UDP packets with advanced features useful for QUIC
2//!
3//! This crate exposes kernel UDP stack features available on most modern systems which are required
4//! for an efficient and conformant QUIC implementation. As of this writing, these are not available
5//! in std or major async runtimes, and their niche character and complexity are a barrier to adding
6//! them. Hence, a dedicated crate.
7//!
8//! Exposed features include:
9//!
10//! - Segmentation offload for bulk send and receive operations, reducing CPU load.
11//! - Reporting the exact destination address of received packets and specifying explicit source
12//!   addresses for sent packets, allowing responses to be sent from the address that the peer
13//!   expects when there are multiple possibilities. This is common when bound to a wildcard address
14//!   in IPv6 due to [RFC 8981] temporary addresses.
15//! - [Explicit Congestion Notification], which is required by QUIC to prevent packet loss and reduce
16//!   latency on congested links when supported by the network path.
17//! - Disabled IP-layer fragmentation, which allows the true physical MTU to be detected and reduces
18//!   risk of QUIC packet loss.
19//!
20//! Some features are unavailable in some environments. This can be due to an outdated operating
21//! system or drivers. Some operating systems may not implement desired features at all, or may not
22//! yet be supported by the crate. When support is unavailable, functionality will gracefully
23//! degrade.
24//!
25//! [RFC 8981]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8981.html
26//! [Explicit Congestion Notification]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3168.html
