 Defines protocol that communicates with `kextinterface` / Portmaster.
 
+The crate implements simple binary protocol. The communications is designed to be concurrent stream of packets.
+Input and output work independent of each other.
+ - Pormtaster can read multiple info packets from the queue with single read request.
+ - Portmaster can write one command packet to the kernel extension with single write request.
+
+## Info: Kext -> Portmaster
+
+Info is a packet that sends information/events from the kernel extension to portmaster.
+For example: `new connection`, `end of connection`, `bandwidth stats` ... check `info.rs` for full list.
+
+The Info packet contains a header that is 5 bytes

+## Command: Portmaster -> Kext
+
+Command is a packet that portmaster sends to the kernel extension.
+For example: `verdict response`, `shutdown`, `get logs` ... check `command.rs` for full list.

+The header of the command packet is 1 byte
