NAME
     bsend - sends data to a socket

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <libdill.h>

	    int bsend(
		int s,
		const void* buf,
		size_t len,
		int64_t deadline);

DESCRIPTION
     This  function  sends data to a bytestream socket.  It is a blocking opera-
     tion that unblocks only after all the data are  sent.   There  is	no  such
     thing as partial send.  If a problem, including timeout, occurs while send-
     ing  the  data  error is returned to the user and the socket cannot be used
     for sending from that point on.

     s: The socket to send the data to.

     buf: Buffer to send.

     len: Size of the buffer, in bytes.

     deadline: A point in time when the operation should time out, in  millisec-
     onds.  Use the now function to get your current point in time.  0 means im-
     mediate  timeout, i.e., perform the operation if possible or return without
     blocking if not.  -1 means no deadline, i.e., the call will  block  forever
     if the operation cannot be performed.

RETURN VALUE
     In  case of success the function returns 0.  In case of error it returns -1
     and sets errno to one of the values below.

ERRORS
     * EBADF: Invalid handle.

     * EBUSY: The handle is currently being used by a different coroutine.

     * ECANCELED: Current coroutine was canceled.

     * ECONNRESET: Broken connection.

     * EINVAL: Invalid argument.

     * ENOTSUP: The handle does not support this operation.

     * EPIPE: Closed connection.

     * ETIMEDOUT: Deadline was reached.

EXAMPLE
	    int rc = bsend(s, "ABC", 3, -1);
