"""
Python wrappers for libzfs_core interfaces.

As a rule, there is a Python function for each C function.
The signatures of the Python functions generally follow those of the
functions, but the argument types are natural to Python.
nvlists are wrapped as dictionaries or lists depending on their usage.
Some parameters have default values depending on typical use for
increased convenience.  Output parameters are not used and return values
are directly returned.  Error conditions are signalled by exceptions
rather than by integer error codes.

        The underlying implementation reports an individual, per-snapshot error

        In all other cases a single error is reported without connection to any

        * if multiple error conditions are encountered only one of them is
          reported

        * unless only one snapshot is requested then it is impossible to tell
          how many snapshots are problematic and what they are

        * only if there are no other error conditions :exc:`.SnapshotExists`
          is reported for all affected snapshots

        * :exc:`.NameTooLong` can behave either in the same way as
          :exc:`.SnapshotExists` or as all other exceptions.
          The former is the case where the full snapshot name exceeds the
          maximum allowed length but the short snapshot name (after '@') is
          within the limit.
          The latter is the case when the short name alone exceeds the maximum

    which the receiving system must support (as indicated by support
    for the *embedded_data* feature).

    If ``flags`` contains *"compress"*, the stream is generated by using
    compressed WRITE records for blocks which are compressed on disk and
    in memory.  If the *lz4_compress* feature is active on the sending
    system, then the receiving system must have that feature enabled as well.

    If ``flags`` contains *"raw"*, the stream is generated, for encrypted
    datasets, by sending data exactly as it exists on disk.  This allows
    backups to be taken even if encryption keys are not currently loaded.

    .. note::
        ``lzc_send`` can actually accept a filesystem name as the ``snapname``.
        In that case ``lzc_send`` acts as if a temporary snapshot was created
        after the start of the call and before the stream starts being
        produced.

    .. note::
        ``lzc_send`` does not return until all of the stream is written to
        ``fd``.

    .. note::
        ``lzc_send`` does *not* close ``fd`` upon returning.
