NAME
   Sys::Sendfile::FreeBSD - Wrapper for the FreeBSD sendfile(2) function.

SYNOPSIS
   use Sys::Sendfile::FreeBSD qw(sendfile);

   open(F, "file.txt");
   my $lengh = (stat("file.txt"))[7];
   my $socket = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => "127.0.0.1:1234");
   my $offset = 0;
   my $bytes_sent = 0;
   my $result = sendfile(fileno(F), fileno($socket), $offset, $length, $bytes_sent);
   close(F);
   close($sock);

DESCRIPTION
   Uses the FreeBSD sendfile(2) function to send the contents of an open
   file handle directly to an open socket. See the sendfile(2) manual page
   for more details.

   Note that this module does not currently support the header/trailer
   functionality of the sendfile(2) function, nor does it allow the flags
   argument to be set.
