+/**
+ @file event2/bufferevent.h
+
+ Functions for buffering data for network sending or receiving. Bufferevents
+ are higher level than evbuffers: each has an underlying evbuffer for reading
+ and one for writing, and callbacks that are invoked under certain
+ circumstances.
+
+ A bufferevent provides input and output buffers that get filled and
+ drained automatically. The user of a bufferevent no longer deals
+ directly with the I/O, but instead is reading from input and writing
+ to output buffers.
+
+ Once initialized, the bufferevent structure can be used repeatedly
+ with bufferevent_enable() and bufferevent_disable().
+
+ When reading is enabled, the bufferevent will try to read from the
+ file descriptor onto its input buffer, and call the read callback.
+ When writing is enabled, the bufferevent will try to write data onto its
+ file descriptor when the output buffer has enough data, and call the write
+ callback when the output buffer is sufficiently drained.
+
+ Bufferevents come in several flavors, including:
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt>Socket-based bufferevents</dt>
+ <dd>A bufferevent that reads and writes data onto a network
+ socket. Created with bufferevent_socket_new().</dd>
+
+ <dt>Paired bufferevents</dt>
+ <dd>A pair of bufferevents that send and receive data to one
+ another without touching the network. Created with
+ bufferevent_pair_new().</dd>
+
+ <dt>Filtering bufferevents</dt>
+ <dd>A bufferevent that transforms data, and sends or receives it
+ over another underlying bufferevent. Created with
+ bufferevent_filter_new().</dd>
+
+ <dt>SSL-backed bufferevents</dt>
+ <dd>A bufferevent that uses the openssl library to send and
+ receive data over an encrypted connection. Created with
+ bufferevent_openssl_socket_new() or
+ bufferevent_openssl_filter_new().</dd>
+ </dl>
