Struct RawDescriptor 

pub struct RawDescriptor(/* private fields */);

A descriptor the caller already owns and has asked us to write to.

Deliberately opaque. Callers hold host-specific things – a RawFd on Unix, a RawHandle on Windows – and there is no honest neutral spelling for what they hold, so the conversion into this type is host-specific and stays at the caller’s edge. What is not host-specific is everything after: writing all of a buffer to it, retrying the partial writes and the interruptions that every host has in its own dialect.

This borrows. It does not close the descriptor, and it does not extend its lifetime: the caller who opened it still decides when it goes away, and using this after that is the same mistake as using the raw value would be.
