/* NAME
/*	scache 3h
/* SUMMARY
/*	generic session cache API
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <scache.h>
/* DESCRIPTION
/* .nf

 /*
  * Utility library.

 /*
  * In order to cache a session, we specify:
  * 
  * - TTL for this session.
  * 
  * - File descriptor.
  * 
  * - Transport name and physical endpoint. The transport name must be included,
  * because fall-back destinations can be transport-dependent, and routing
  * for a given destination may be context dependent.
  * 
  * In the case of SMTP, the physical endpoint is the numerical IP address and
  * TCP port.
  * 
  * - Application-specific endpoint properties.
  * 
  * In the case of SMTP, the properties specify the ESMTP features advertised by
  * the server.
  * 
  * Note: with message delivery transports that have only one endpoint per
  * logical destination, the above is the only information that needs to be
  * maintained in a connection cache.

 /*
  * The following information is stored in order to make a binding from
  * logical destination to physical destination. One logical destination can
  * have multiple physical destinations (and one physical destination can
  * have multiple sessions).
  * 
  * - TTL for this binding.
  * 
  * - Transport name and logical destination.
  * 
  * In the case of SMTP: the next-hop (NOT: fall-back) destination domain and
  * destination network port. It is not useful to create a link for an
  * address literal (but it is not harmful either: it just wastes a few
  * bits). This information specifies the destination domain in [] if no MX
  * lookup is done.
  * 
  * - Application-specific properties.
  * 
  * In case the of SMTP, the properties specify a) whether a physical endpoint
  * is best mx host with respect to a logical or fall-back destination (this
  * information is needed by the loop detection code in smtp_proto.c).
  * 
  * - Transport name and physical endpoint (see above).
  * 
  * Note 1: there is no need to store the binding's MX preference or equivalent
  * with respect to the logical destination; a client should store only the
  * first successful session for a given delivery request (otherwise the
  * client would keep talking to a less preferred server after the cached
  * connection for a more preferred server expires). After a failed delivery,
  * the client should not attempt to cache follow-up sessions with less
  * preferred endpoints under the same logical destination.
  * 
  * Note 2: logical to physical bindings exist independently from cached
  * sessions. The two types of information have independent TTLs; creation
  * and destruction proceed independently. Thus, a logical to physical
  * binding can refer to an endpoint for which all cached connections are
  * occupied or expired.
