  fnctl(fd, F_GETPIPE_SZ)—Return the buffer capacity of a pipe.
• fcntl_setpipe_size
  fnctl(fd, F_SETPIPE_SZ)—Set the buffer capacity of a pipe.
• pipe
  pipe()—Creates a pipe.
• pipe_with
  pipe2(flags)—Creates a pipe, with flags.
• splice
  splice(fd_in, off_in, fd_out, off_out, len, flags)—Transfer data between a file and a pipe.
