34 * Convenience wrappers around some commonly used system calls. The *NoInt

59 * Wrapper around read() (and pread()) that, in addition to retrying on
60 * EINTR, will loop until all data is read.
62 * This wrapper is only useful for blocking file descriptors (for non-blocking
63 * file descriptors, you have to be prepared to deal with incomplete reads
64 * anyway), and only exists because POSIX allows read() to return an incomplete
65 * read if interrupted by a signal (instead of returning -1 and setting errno
68 * Note that this wrapper weakens the thread safety of read(): the file pointer
69 * is shared between threads, but the system call is atomic. If multiple
70 * threads are reading from a file at the same time, you don't know where your
71 * data came from in the file, but you do know that the returned bytes were
72 * contiguous. You can no longer make this assumption if using readFull().
73 * You should probably use pread() when reading from the same file descriptor
74 * from multiple threads simultaneously, anyway.
76 * Note that readvFull and preadvFull require iov to be non-const, unlike
77 * readv and preadv. The contents of iov after these functions return
80 ssize_t readFull(int fd, void* buf, size_t n);
81 ssize_t preadFull(int fd, void* buf, size_t n, off_t offset);
82 ssize_t readvFull(int fd, iovec* iov, int count);
83 ssize_t preadvFull(int fd, iovec* iov, int count, off_t offset);
86 * Similar to readFull and preadFull above, wrappers around write() and
87 * pwrite() that loop until all data is written.
89 * Generally, the write() / pwrite() system call may always write fewer bytes
90 * than requested, just like read(). In certain cases (such as when writing to
91 * a pipe), POSIX provides stronger guarantees, but not in the general case.
92 * For example, Linux (even on a 64-bit platform) won't write more than 2GB in
93 * one write() system call.
95 * Note that writevFull and pwritevFull require iov to be non-const, unlike
96 * writev and pwritev. The contents of iov after these functions return
99 ssize_t writeFull(int fd, const void* buf, size_t n);
100 ssize_t pwriteFull(int fd, const void* buf, size_t n, off_t offset);
101 ssize_t writevFull(int fd, iovec* iov, int count);
102 ssize_t pwritevFull(int fd, iovec* iov, int count, off_t offset);
105 * Read entire file (if num_bytes is defaulted) or no more than
106 * num_bytes (otherwise) into container *out. The container is assumed
107 * to be contiguous, with element size equal to 1, and offer size(),
108 * reserve(), and random access (e.g. std::vector<char>, std::string,
111 * Returns: true on success or false on failure. In the latter case
112 * errno will be set appropriately by the failing system primitive.
