   4  *        Management of large buffered temporary files.
   5  *
   6  * The BufFile routines provide a partial replacement for stdio atop
   7  * virtual file descriptors managed by fd.c.  Currently they only support
   8  * buffered access to a virtual file, without any of stdio's formatting
   9  * features.  That's enough for immediate needs, but the set of facilities
  10  * could be expanded if necessary.
  11  *
  12  * BufFile also supports working with temporary files that exceed the OS
  13  * file size limit and/or the largest offset representable in an int.
  14  * It might be better to split that out as a separately accessible module,
  15  * but currently we have no need for oversize temp files without buffered
  16  * access.
