+// 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.

+
+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.
