// This file implements a simple serialization format for Cap'n Proto messages.  The format
// is as follows:
//
// * 32-bit little-endian segment count (4 bytes).
// * 32-bit little-endian size of each segment (4*(segment count) bytes).
// * Padding so that subsequent data is 64-bit-aligned (0 or 4 bytes).  (I.e., if there are an even
//     number of segments, there are 4 bytes of zeros here, otherwise there is no padding.)
// * Data from each segment, in order (8*sum(segment sizes) bytes)
//
// This format has some important properties:
// - It is self-delimiting, so multiple messages may be written to a stream without any external
//   delimiter.
// - The total size and position of each segment can be determined by reading only the first part
//   of the message, allowing lazy and random-access reading of the segment data.
// - A message is always at least 8 bytes.
// - A single-segment message can be read entirely in two system calls with no buffering.
// - A multi-segment message can be read entirely in three system calls with no buffering.
// - The format is appropriate for mmap()ing since all data is aligned.

// Convenience function which reads a message using `FlatArrayMessageReader` then copies the
// content into the target `MessageBuilder`, verifying that the message structure is valid
// (although not necessarily that it matches the desired schema).
//
// Returns an ArrayPtr containing any words left over in the array after consuming the whole
// message. This is useful when reading multiple messages that have been concatenated. See also
// FlatArrayMessageReader::getEnd().
//
// (Note that it's also possible to initialize a `MessageBuilder` directly without a copy using one
// of `MessageBuilder`'s constructors. However, this approach skips the validation step and is not
// safe to use on untrusted input. Therefore, we do not provide a convenience method for it.)

kj::Array<word> messageToFlatArray(MessageBuilder& builder);
// Constructs a flat array containing the entire content of the given message.
//
// To output the message as bytes, use `.asBytes()` on the returned word array. Keep in mind that
// `asBytes()` returns an ArrayPtr, so you have to save the Array as well to prevent it from being
// deleted. For example:
//
//     kj::Array<capnp::word> words = messageToFlatArray(myMessage);
//     kj::ArrayPtr<kj::byte> bytes = words.asBytes();
//     write(fd, bytes.begin(), bytes.size());

size_t computeSerializedSizeInWords(MessageBuilder& builder);
// Returns the size, in words, that will be needed to serialize the message, including the header.

size_t computeSerializedSizeInWords(kj::ArrayPtr<const kj::ArrayPtr<const word>> segments);
// Version of computeSerializedSizeInWords that takes a raw segment array.

size_t expectedSizeInWordsFromPrefix(kj::ArrayPtr<const word> messagePrefix);
// Given a prefix of a serialized message, try to determine the expected total size of the message,
// in words. The returned size is based on the information known so far; it may be an underestimate
// if the prefix doesn't contain the full segment table.
//
// If the returned value is greater than `messagePrefix.size()`, then the message is not yet
// complete and the app cannot parse it yet. If the returned value is less than or equal to
// `messagePrefix.size()`, then the returned value is the exact total size of the message; any
// remaining bytes are part of the next message.
//
// This function is useful when reading messages from a stream in an asynchronous way, but when
// using the full KJ async infrastructure would be too difficult. Each time bytes are received,
// use this function to determine if an entire message is ready to be parsed.
