NAME

     putter -- Pass-to-Userspace Transporter


DESCRIPTION

     The putter subsystem is used for request-response handling of userspace
     components.  It currently provides routines for associating a file
     descriptor with a subsystem data structure instance and I/O routines.
     Users of the facility must fill out the callbacks in struct putter_ops to
     integrate with putter.
