217 // such region will return 0 bytes read (or actually the number of bytes read
218 // before reaching that region).
220 // There are only two streams for sparse entries: a regular control stream
221 // (index 0) that must be accessed through the regular API (ReadData and
222 // WriteData), and one sparse stream that must me accessed through the sparse-
223 // aware API that follows. Calling a non-sparse aware method with an index
224 // argument other than 0 is a mistake that results in implementation specific
225 // behavior. Using a sparse-aware method with an entry that was not stored
226 // using the same API, or with a backend that doesn't support sparse entries
227 // will return ERR_CACHE_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED.
229 // The storage granularity of the implementation should be at least 1 KB. In
230 // other words, storing less than 1 KB may result in an implementation
231 // dropping the data completely, and writing at offsets not aligned with 1 KB,
232 // or with lengths not a multiple of 1 KB may result in the first or last part
233 // of the data being discarded. However, two consecutive writes should not
234 // result in a hole in between the two parts as long as they are sequential
235 // (the second one starts where the first one ended), and there is no other
236 // write between them.
