2 * "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.
4 * This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
5 * an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
6 * buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.
8 * The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
9 * that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.
11 * Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by
12 * Jens to support splicing to files, network, direct splicing, etc and
13 * fixing lots of bugs.
