+/* Try to open a new Qemu fast-pipe. This function returns a file descriptor
+ * that can be used to communicate with a named service managed by the
+ * emulator.
+ *
+ * This file descriptor can be used as a standard pipe/socket descriptor.
+ *
+ * 'pipeName' is the name of the emulator service you want to connect to.
+ * E.g. 'opengles' or 'camera'.
+ *
+ * On success, return a valid file descriptor
+ * Returns -1 on error, and errno gives the error code, e.g.:
+ *
+ *    EINVAL  -> unknown/unsupported pipeName
+ *    ENOSYS  -> fast pipes not available in this system.
+ *
+ * ENOSYS should never happen, except if you're trying to run within a
+ * misconfigured emulator.
+ *
+ * You should be able to open several pipes to the same pipe service,
+ * except for a few special cases (e.g. GSM modem), where EBUSY will be
+ * returned if more than one client tries to connect to it.
