/*
 * The goal of this file is to provide convenient message writing KPI on top of
 * different storage methods (mbufs, uio, temporary memory chunks).
 *
 * The main KPI guarantee is the the (last) message always resides in the contiguous
 *  memory buffer, so one is able to update the header after writing the entire message.
 *
 * This guarantee comes with a side effect of potentially reallocating underlying
 *  buffer, so one needs to update the desired pointers after something is added
 *  to the header.
 *
 * Messaging layer contains hooks performing transparent Linux translation for the messages.
 *
 * There are 3 types of supported targets:
 *  * socket (adds mbufs to the socket buffer, used for message replies)
 *  * group (sends mbuf/chain to the specified groups, used for the notifications)
 *  * chain (returns mbuf chain, used in Linux message translation code)
 *
 * There are 3 types of storage:
 * * NS_WRITER_TYPE_MBUF (mbuf-based, most efficient, used when a single message
 *    fits in MCLBYTES)
 * * NS_WRITER_TYPE_BUF (fallback, malloc-based, used when a single message needs
 *    to be larger than one supported by NS_WRITER_TYPE_MBUF)
 * * NS_WRITER_TYPE_LBUF (malloc-based, similar to NS_WRITER_TYPE_BUF, used for
 *    Linux sockets, calls translation hook prior to sending messages to the socket).
 *
 * Internally, KPI switches between different types of storage when memory requirements
 *  change. It happens transparently to the caller.
