17/*
18 * An lttng_payload_view references a payload and allows code to share
19 * a `const` version of a subset of a payload.
20 *
21 * A payload view is invalidated whenever its source (a payload, or another
22 * payload view) is modified.
23 *
24 * While a payload view does not allow users to modify the underlying bytes
fe489250
JG
25 * of the payload, it can be used to 'pop' file descriptor handles using an
26 * iterator belonging to the top-level payload view.
c0a66c84
JG
27 *
28 * Hence, a payload view created from a payload or a dynamic buffer contains
fe489250
JG
29 * an implicit file descriptor handle iterator. Any payload view created from
30 * another payload view will share the same underlying file descriptor handle
31 * iterator.
c0a66c84 32 *
fe489250
JG
33 * The rationale for this is that a payload is never consumed directly, it must
34 * be consumed through a payload view.
c0a66c84
JG
35 *
36 * Typically, a payload view will be used to rebuild a previously serialized
37 * object hierarchy. Sharing an underlying iterator allows aggregate objects
38 * to provide a restricted view of the payload to their members, which will
fe489250 39 * report the number of bytes consumed and `pop` the file descriptor handle they
c0a66c84 40 * should own. In return, those objects can create an even narrower view for
fe489250 41 * their children, allowing them to also consume file descriptor handles.
c0a66c84
JG
42 *
43 * Note that a payload view never assumes any ownership of the underlying
44 * payload.
