1//! Ancillary data (control message) support for connected streams.
2//!
3//! Ancillary messages are used to pass out-of-band information such as file
4//! descriptors (Unix domain sockets), credentials, or kTLS record types.
5//!
6//! # Types
7//!
8//! - [`AncillaryBuf`]: A fixed-size, properly aligned stack buffer for
9//!   ancillary messages.
10//! - [`AncillaryBuilder`]: A builder for constructing ancillary messages into a
11//!   [`AncillaryBuf`].
12//! - [`AncillaryIter`]: An iterator over a buffer of ancillary messages.
13//! - [`AncillaryRef`]: A reference to a single ancillary data entry.
14//! - [`AncillaryData`]: Trait for types that can be encoded/decoded as
15//!   ancillary data payloads.
16//! - [`CodecError`]: Error type for encoding/decoding operations.
17//!
18//! # Traits
19//!
20//! - [`AsyncReadAncillary`]: read data together with ancillary data
21//! - [`AsyncWriteAncillary`]: write data together with ancillary data
22//!
23//! # Functions
24//!
25//! - [`ancillary_space`]: Helper function to calculate ancillary message size
26//!   for a type.
27//!
28//! # Modules
29//!
30//! - [`bytemuck_ext`]: Extension module for automatic [`AncillaryData`]
31//!   implementation via bytemuck (requires `bytemuck` feature).

302/// Trait for types that can be encoded and decoded as ancillary data payloads.
303///
304/// This trait enables a type to be used as the data payload in control messages
305/// (ancillary data). Types implementing this trait can be passed to
306/// [`AncillaryBuilder::push`] and retrieved via [`AncillaryRef::data`].
307///
308/// # Built-in Implementations
309///
310/// This trait is implemented for the following platform-specific types:
311///
312/// - Unix: `libc::in_addr`, `libc::in_pktinfo`, `libc::in6_pktinfo`
313/// - Windows: `IN_PKTINFO`, `IN6_PKTINFO`
314///
315/// When the `bytemuck` feature is enabled, this trait is also automatically
316/// implemented for types that implement [`bytemuck_ext::BitwiseAncillaryData`]:
317///
318/// - Primitive types: `()`, `u8`, `u16`, `u32`, `u64`, `u128`, `usize`, `i8`,
319///   `i16`, `i32`, `i64`, `i128`, `isize`, `f32`, `f64`
320/// - Fixed-size arrays of the above types (up to size 512)
321///
322/// For custom types with the `bytemuck` feature enabled, you can implement
323/// [`bytemuck_ext::BitwiseAncillaryData`] to automatically get
324/// [`AncillaryData`] (see [`bytemuck_ext`] for details). Otherwise, you must
325/// manually implement this trait with custom encoding/decoding logic.
