+
+/**
+ * @defgroup tsocket The tsocket API
+ *
+ * The tsocket abstraction is split into two different kinds of
+ * communication interfaces.
+ *
+ * There's the "tstream_context" interface with abstracts the communication
+ * through a bidirectional byte stream between two endpoints.
+ *
+ * And there's the "tdgram_context" interface with abstracts datagram based
+ * communication between any number of endpoints.
+ *
+ * Both interfaces share the "tsocket_address" abstraction for endpoint
+ * addresses.
+ *
+ * The whole library is based on the talloc(3) and 'tevent' libraries and
+ * provides "tevent_req" based "foo_send()"/"foo_recv()" functions pairs for
+ * all abstracted methods that need to be async.
+ *
+ * @section vsock Virtual Sockets
+ *
+ * The abstracted layout of tdgram_context and tstream_context allow
+ * implementations around virtual sockets for encrypted tunnels (like TLS,
+ * SASL or GSSAPI) or named pipes over smb.
+ *
+ * @section npa Named Pipe Auth (NPA) Sockets
+ *
+ * Samba has an implementation to abstract named pipes over smb (within the
+ * server side). See libcli/named_pipe_auth/npa_tstream.[ch] for the core code.
+ * The current callers are located in source4/ntvfs/ipc/vfs_ipc.c and
+ * source4/rpc_server/service_rpc.c for the users.
