# @DataFormat:

# An enumeration of data format.

#
# Since: 1.4
##
{ 'enum': 'DataFormat',

##
# @ringbuf-write:
#
# Write to a ring buffer character device.
#
# @device: the ring buffer character device name
#
# @data: data to write
#
# @format: data encoding (default 'utf8').
#
# - base64: data must be base64 encoded text. Its binary
# decoding gets written.
# - utf8: data's UTF-8 encoding is written
# - data itself is always Unicode regardless of format, like
# any other string.
#
# Returns: Nothing on success
#
# Since: 1.4
#
# Example:

#
# Read from a ring buffer character device.
#
# @device: the ring buffer character device name
#
# @size: how many bytes to read at most
#
# @format: data encoding (default 'utf8').
#
# - base64: the data read is returned in base64 encoding.
# - utf8: the data read is interpreted as UTF-8.
# Bug: can screw up when the buffer contains invalid UTF-8
# sequences, NUL characters, after the ring buffer lost
# data, and when reading stops because the size limit is
# reached.
# - The return value is always Unicode regardless of format,
# like any other string.
#
# Returns: data read from the device
#
# Since: 1.4
#
# Example:
