// CordBuffer
//
// CordBuffer manages memory buffers for purposes such as zero-copy APIs as well
// as applications building cords with large data requiring granular control
// over the allocation and size of cord data. For example, a function creating
// a cord of random data could use a CordBuffer as follows:
//
// absl::Cord CreateRandomCord(size_t length) {
// absl::Cord cord;
// while (length > 0) {
// CordBuffer buffer = CordBuffer::CreateWithDefaultLimit(length);
// absl::Span<char> data = buffer.available_up_to(length);
// FillRandomValues(data.data(), data.size());
// buffer.IncreaseLengthBy(data.size());
// cord.Append(std::move(buffer));
// length -= data.size();
// }
// return cord;
// }
//
// CordBuffer instances are by default limited to a capacity of `kDefaultLimit`
// bytes. `kDefaultLimit` is currently just under 4KiB, but this default may
// change in the future and/or for specific architectures. The default limit is
// aimed to provide a good trade-off between performance and memory overhead.
// Smaller buffers typically incur more compute cost while larger buffers are
// more CPU efficient but create significant memory overhead because of such
// allocations being less granular. Using larger buffers may also increase the
// risk of memory fragmentation.
//
// Applications create a buffer using one of the `CreateWithDefaultLimit()` or
// `CreateWithCustomLimit()` methods. The returned instance will have a non-zero
// capacity and a zero length. Applications use the `data()` method to set the
// contents of the managed memory, and once done filling the buffer, use the
// `IncreaseLengthBy()` or 'SetLength()' method to specify the length of the
// initialized data before adding the buffer to a Cord.
//
// The `CreateWithCustomLimit()` method is intended for applications needing
// larger buffers than the default memory limit, allowing the allocation of up
// to a capacity of `kCustomLimit` bytes minus some minimum internal overhead.
// The usage of `CreateWithCustomLimit()` should be limited to only those use
// cases where the distribution of the input is relatively well known, and/or
// where the trade-off between the efficiency gains outweigh the risk of memory
// fragmentation. See the documentation for `CreateWithCustomLimit()` for more
// information on using larger custom limits.
//
// The capacity of a `CordBuffer` returned by one of the `Create` methods may
// be larger than the requested capacity due to rounding, alignment and
// granularity of the memory allocator. Applications should use the `capacity`
// method to obtain the effective capacity of the returned instance as
// demonstrated in the provided example above.
//
// CordBuffer is a move-only class. All references into the managed memory are
// invalidated when an instance is moved into either another CordBuffer instance
// or a Cord. Writing to a location obtained by a previous call to `data()`
// after an instance was moved will lead to undefined behavior.
//
// A `moved from` CordBuffer instance will have a valid, but empty state.
// CordBuffer is thread compatible.

// `CreateWithDefaultLimit()` method. While small, each internal buffer inside
// a Cord incurs an overhead to manage the length, type and reference count
// for the buffer managed inside the cord tree. Applications can use this
// method to get approximate number of buffers required for a given byte
// size, etc.
//
// For example:
// const size_t payload = absl::CordBuffer::MaximumPayload();
// const size_t buffer_count = (total_size + payload - 1) / payload;
// buffers.reserve(buffer_count);
static constexpr size_t MaximumPayload();
// Overload to the above `MaximumPayload()` except that it returns the
// maximum payload for a CordBuffer returned by the `CreateWithCustomLimit()`
// method given the provided `block_size`.
static constexpr size_t MaximumPayload(size_t block_size);
// CordBuffer::CreateWithDefaultLimit()
//
// Creates a CordBuffer instance of the desired `capacity`, capped at the
// default limit `kDefaultLimit`. The returned buffer has a guaranteed
// capacity of at least `min(kDefaultLimit, capacity)`. See the class comments
// for more information on buffer capacities and intended usage.
static CordBuffer CreateWithDefaultLimit(size_t capacity);
// CordBuffer::CreateWithCustomLimit()
//
// Creates a CordBuffer instance of the desired `capacity` rounded to an
// appropriate power of 2 size less than, or equal to `block_size`.
// Requires `block_size` to be a power of 2.
//
// If `capacity` is less than or equal to `kDefaultLimit`, then this method
// behaves identical to `CreateWithDefaultLimit`, which means that the caller
// is guaranteed to get a buffer of at least the requested capacity.
//
// If `capacity` is greater than or equal to `block_size`, then this method
// returns a buffer with an `allocated size` of `block_size` bytes. Otherwise,
// this methods returns a buffer with a suitable smaller power of 2 block size
// to satisfy the request. The actual size depends on a number of factors, and
// is typically (but not necessarily) the highest or second highest power of 2
// value less than or equal to `capacity`.
//
// The 'allocated size' includes a small amount of overhead required for
// internal state, which is currently 13 bytes on 64-bit platforms. For
// example: a buffer created with `block_size` and `capacity' set to 8KiB
// will have an allocated size of 8KiB, and an effective internal `capacity`
// of 8KiB - 13 = 8179 bytes.
//
// To demonstrate this in practice, let's assume we want to read data from
// somewhat larger files using approximately 64KiB buffers:
//
// absl::Cord ReadFromFile(int fd, size_t n) {
// absl::Cord cord;
// while (n > 0) {
// CordBuffer buffer = CordBuffer::CreateWithCustomLimit(64 << 10, n);
// absl::Span<char> data = buffer.available_up_to(n);
// ReadFileDataOrDie(fd, data.data(), data.size());
// buffer.IncreaseLengthBy(data.size());
// cord.Append(std::move(buffer));
// n -= data.size();
// }
// return cord;
// }
//
// If we'd use this function to read a file of 659KiB, we may get the
// following pattern of allocated cord buffer sizes:
//
// CreateWithCustomLimit(64KiB, 674816) --> ~64KiB (65523)
// CreateWithCustomLimit(64KiB, 674816) --> ~64KiB (65523)
// ...
// CreateWithCustomLimit(64KiB, 19586) --> ~16KiB (16371)
// CreateWithCustomLimit(64KiB, 3215) --> 3215 (at least 3215)
//
// The reason the method returns a 16K buffer instead of a roughly 19K buffer
// is to reduce memory overhead and fragmentation risks. Using carefully
// chosen power of 2 values reduces the entropy of allocated memory sizes.
//
// Additionally, let's assume we'd use the above function on files that are
// generally smaller than 64K. If we'd use 'precise' sized buffers for such
// files, than we'd get a very wide distribution of allocated memory sizes
// rounded to 4K page sizes, and we'd end up with a lot of unused capacity.
//
// In general, application should only use custom sizes if the data they are
// consuming or storing is expected to be many times the chosen block size,
// and be based on objective data and performance metrics. For example, a
// compress function may work faster and consume less CPU when using larger
// buffers. Such an application should pick a size offering a reasonable
// trade-off between expected data size, compute savings with larger buffers,
// and the cost or fragmentation effect of larger buffers.
// Applications must pick a reasonable spot on that curve, and make sure their
// data meets their expectations in size distributions such as "mostly large".
