description:
  This library provides a very thin wrapper around POSIX APIs. It can be
  compiled on any operating system that implements the standard as specified
  in <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/ IEEE Std 1003.1>
  faithfully. It has similar goals as the `unix` package, but its design
  differs in several areas:
  .
  * `ByteArray` and `Addr` are used pervasively. There is no use of
    `String` in this library.
  .
  * Functions do not throw errors. This library uses `IO (Either Errno a)`
    in places where `unix` would use `IO a`.
  .
  * The numeric types from `Foreign.C.Types` and `System.Posix.Types` are
    used in the type signatures of functions so that a haskell function's
    type signature matches its underlying POSIX equivalent exactly.
  .
  * Flags are newtypes over `CInt` (or whatever integral type matches the
    posix specification) rather than enumerations. The data constructors
    are exported, making the types extensible for operating system that
    have additional flags.
  .
  About a dozen other packages offers wrappers for some subset of the POSIX
  specification are strewn across hackage. They include `regex-posix`,
  `posix-paths`, `posix-timer`, `posix-socket`, `posix-filelock`,
  `posix-acl`, etc. This library differs from all off these in various
  ways. Here are some of the design guidelines followed here that distinguish
  this package from some or all of these others:
  .
  * Scope. Although this library does not include all APIs specified by
    POSIX, it welcomes as many of them as anyone is willing to implement.
  .
  * Monomorphization. Effectful functions in this library return their
    results in `IO` rather than using a type that involves `MonadIO`
    or `MonadBaseControl`.
  .
  * Typeclass avoidance. This library does not introduce new typeclasses.
    Overloading is eschewed in favor of providing multiple functions
    with distinct names.
  .
  * Minimality. Functions wrapping the POSIX APIs do little more than
    wrap the underlying functions. The major deviation here is that,
    when applicable, the wrappers allocate buffers are the underlying
    functions fill. This eschews C's characteristic buffer-passing
    in favor of the Haskell convention of allocating internally and returning.
    A more minor deviation is that for safe FFI calls, this library
    will perform additional work to ensure that only pinned byte arrays are
    handed over.
  .
  Unlike `network`, this sockets API in this library does not integrate
  sockets with GHC's event manager. This is geared
  toward an audience that understands how to use `threadWaitRead`
  and `threadWaitWrite` with unsafe FFI calls to avoid blocking
  the runtime.
