+# socket will probably switch to a TLV scheme:
+# 32 bit TL, 8 bits of type code and 24 bit size
+# type codes:
+# 0: string data
+# 1: json data
+# 24 bit size allows the peer to avoid having to do any particular parsing to
+# understand message boundaries (which is a significant burden on the xCAT
+# protocol)
