Subject: [PATCH v3 1/9] streaming: void pointer instead of char pointer

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 3 May 2012 08:51:00 +0700

From: René Scharfe <[email-masked]>

Allow any kind of buffer to be fed to read_istream() without an explicit
cast by making it's buf argument a void pointer.  It's about arbitrary
data, not only characters.
