.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn tlv_encode
and
.Fn tlv_decode
functions are helpers to manipulate TLV (Text-Length-Value) data.
.Pp
The
.Fn tlv_encode
function converts the
.Ar isize
bytes long
.Ar istream
message into a TLV stream of type
.Ar type
and set the value of
.Ar osize
to the length of the returned stream.
.Pp
The
.Fn tlv_decode
function converts the
.Ar istream
TLV stream and set the
.Ar type
argument according to the type of the stream, and set the
.Ar size
argument to the length of the returned stream.
