   1 /*
   2  * Networking abstraction in PuTTY.
   3  *
   4  * The way this works is: a back end can choose to open any number
   5  * of sockets - including zero, which might be necessary in some.
   6  * It can register a function to be called when data comes in on
   7  * any given one, and it can call the networking abstraction to
   8  * send data without having to worry about blocking. The stuff
   9  * behind the abstraction takes care of selects and nonblocking
  10  * writes and all that sort of painful gubbins.
  11  *
  12  * If urgent data comes in on a socket, the back end will read and
  13  * discard up to the urgent pointer, then read the urgent byte and
  14  * send _that_ to the receiver function with `urgent' set.
