13/// The `BufReader<R>` struct adds buffering to any reader.
14///
15/// It can be excessively inefficient to work directly with a [`Read`] instance.
16/// For example, every call to [`read`][`TcpStream::read`] on [`TcpStream`]
17/// results in a system call. A `BufReader<R>` performs large, infrequent reads on
18/// the underlying [`Read`] and maintains an in-memory buffer of the results.
19///
20/// `BufReader<R>` can improve the speed of programs that make *small* and
21/// *repeated* read calls to the same file or network socket. It does not
22/// help when reading very large amounts at once, or reading just one or a few
23/// times. It also provides no advantage when reading from a source that is
24/// already in memory, like a <code>[Vec]\<u8></code>.
25///
26/// When the `BufReader<R>` is dropped, the contents of its buffer will be
27/// discarded. Creating multiple instances of a `BufReader<R>` on the same
28/// stream can cause data loss. Reading from the underlying reader after
29/// unwrapping the `BufReader<R>` with [`BufReader::into_inner`] can also cause
30/// data loss.
31///
32// FIXME(#74481): Hard-links required to link from `alloc` to `std`

561 /// The value returned is equivalent to `self.seek(SeekFrom::Current(0))`
562 /// but does not flush the internal buffer. Due to this optimization the
563 /// function does not guarantee that calling `.into_inner()` immediately
564 /// afterwards will yield the underlying reader at the same position. Use
565 /// [`BufReader::seek`] instead if you require that guarantee.

567 /// # Panics
568 ///
569 /// This function will panic if the position of the inner reader is smaller
570 /// than the amount of buffered data. That can happen if the inner reader
571 /// has an incorrect implementation of [`Seek::stream_position`], or if the
572 /// position has gone out of sync due to calling [`Seek::seek`] directly on
573 /// the underlying reader.
