array_length(3) 					     Library Functions Manual						   array_length(3)

NAME

       array_length - get number of allocated members in array

SYNTAX

       #include <array.h>

       int64 array_length(array* x,uint64 membersize);

	 array x;
	 int64 members = array_length(&x,sizeof(t));

DESCRIPTION

       array_length returns the number of initialized bytes in x, divided by the size of t. In other words, array_get will succeed for positions 0
       through array_length-1; it will fail for position array_length.

       If x is unallocated, array_length and array_bytes return 0.

iob_send(3)						     Library Functions Manual						       iob_send(3)

NAME

       iob_send - send I/O batch

SYNTAX

       #include <iob.h>

       int64 iob_send(int64 s,io_batch* b);

DESCRIPTION

       iob_send sends the (rest of) b over the socket s.

       iob_send  returns  the number of bytes written, 0 if there were no more bytes to be written in the batch, -1 for EAGAIN, or -3 for a perma-
       nent error (for example "connection reset by peer").

       The normal usage pattern is using io_wait to know when a descriptor is writable, and then calling iob_send until it returns 0, -1 or -3.

       If it returns 0, terminate the loop (everything was written OK).  If it returns -1, call io_wait again.	If it returned -3, signal an error
       and close the socket.

       The benefit of the I/O batch API is that it exploits platform specific APIs like FreeBSD's sendfile.  The file contents will always be sent
       in a way that allows the operating systems to perform zero copy TCP, and the buffers will always be sent using as few syscalls as  possible
       and avoiding unnecessary copying (using writev).
