The read function has been renamed to readAdvanced since it has slightly different semantics than typical read functions, specifically regarding the end-of-file. A higher level read function is implemented on top. Now, API users may pass small buffers to the read function and everything will work fine. This is done by re-decrypting the same ciphertext record with each call to read() until the record is finished being transmitted. If the buffer supplied to read() is large enough, then any given ciphertext record will only be decrypted once, since it decrypts directly to the read() buffer and therefore does not need any memcpy. On the other hand, if the buffer supplied to read() is small, then the ciphertext is decrypted into a stack buffer, a subset is copied to the read() buffer, and then the entire ciphertext record is saved for the next call to read(). |

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
