-1. Overview
-
-  The CQL binary protocol is a frame based protocol. Frames are defined as:
-
-      0         8        16        24        32

-      .                                       .
-      .                                       .
-      +----------------------------------------
-
-  The protocol is big-endian (network byte order).
-
-  Each frame contains a fixed size header (8 bytes) followed by a variable size
-  body. The header is described in Section 2. The content of the body depends
-  on the header opcode value (the body can in particular be empty for some
-  opcode values). The list of allowed opcode is defined Section 2.3 and the
-  details of each corresponding message is described Section 4.
-
-  The protocol distinguishes 2 types of frames: requests and responses. Requests
-  are those frame sent by the clients to the server, response are the ones sent
-  by the server. Note however that while communication are initiated by the
-  client with the server responding to request, the protocol may likely add
-  server pushes in the future, so responses does not obligatory come right after
-  a client request.
-
-  Note to client implementors: clients library should always assume that the
-  body of a given frame may contain more data than what is described in this
-  document. It will however always be safe to ignore the remaining of the frame
-  body in such cases. The reason is that this may allow to sometimes extend the
-  protocol with optional features without needing to change the protocol
-  version.
-
-
-2. Frame header
-
-2.1. version
-
-  The version is a single byte that indicate both the direction of the message
-  (request or response) and the version of the protocol in use. The up-most bit
-  of version is used to define the direction of the message: 0 indicates a
-  request, 1 indicates a responses. This can be useful for protocol analyzers to
-  distinguish the nature of the packet from the direction which it is moving.
-  The rest of that byte is the protocol version (1 for the protocol defined in
-  this document). In other words, for this version of the protocol, version will
-  have one of:
-    0x01    Request frame for this protocol version
-    0x81    Response frame for this protocol version
-
-
-2.2. flags
-
-  Flags applying to this frame. The flags have the following meaning (described
-  by the mask that allow to select them):
-    0x01: Compression flag. If set, the frame body is compressed. The actual
-          compression to use should have been set up beforehand through the
-          Startup message (which thus cannot be compressed; Section 4.1.1).
-    0x02: Tracing flag. For a request frame, this indicate the client requires
-          tracing of the request. Note that not all requests support tracing.
-          Currently, only QUERY, PREPARE and EXECUTE queries support tracing.
-          Other requests will simply ignore the tracing flag if set. If a
-          request support tracing and the tracing flag was set, the response to
-          this request will have the tracing flag set and contain tracing
-          information.
-          If a response frame has the tracing flag set, its body contains
-          a tracing ID. The tracing ID is a [uuid] and is the first thing in
-          the frame body. The rest of the body will then be the usual body
-          corresponding to the response opcode.
-
-  The rest of the flags is currently unused and ignored.
-
-2.3. stream
-
-  A frame has a stream id (one signed byte). When sending request messages, this
-  stream id must be set by the client to a positive byte (negative stream id
-  are reserved for streams initiated by the server; currently all EVENT messages
-  (section 4.2.6) have a streamId of -1). If a client sends a request message
-  with the stream id X, it is guaranteed that the stream id of the response to
-  that message will be X.
-
-  This allow to deal with the asynchronous nature of the protocol. If a client
-  sends multiple messages simultaneously (without waiting for responses), there
-  is no guarantee on the order of the responses. For instance, if the client
-  writes REQ_1, REQ_2, REQ_3 on the wire (in that order), the server might
-  respond to REQ_3 (or REQ_2) first. Assigning different stream id to these 3
-  requests allows the client to distinguish to which request an received answer
-  respond to. As there can only be 128 different simultaneous stream, it is up
-  to the client to reuse stream id.
-
-  Note that clients are free to use the protocol synchronously (i.e. wait for
-  the response to REQ_N before sending REQ_N+1). In that case, the stream id
-  can be safely set to 0. Clients should also feel free to use only a subset of
-  the 128 maximum possible stream ids if it is simpler for those
-  implementation.
-
-2.4. opcode
-
-  An integer byte that distinguish the actual message:
-    0x00    ERROR
-    0x01    STARTUP
-    0x02    READY
-    0x03    AUTHENTICATE
-    0x04    CREDENTIALS
-    0x05    OPTIONS
-    0x06    SUPPORTED
-    0x07    QUERY
-    0x08    RESULT
-    0x09    PREPARE
-    0x0A    EXECUTE
-    0x0B    REGISTER
-    0x0C    EVENT
-
-  Messages are described in Section 4.
-
-
-2.5. length
-
-  A 4 byte integer representing the length of the body of the frame (note:
-  currently a frame is limited to 256MB in length).
-
-
-3. Notations
-
-  To describe the layout of the frame body for the messages in Section 4, we
-  define the following:
-
-    [int]          A 4 byte integer
-    [short]        A 2 byte unsigned integer
-    [string]       A [short] n, followed by n bytes representing an UTF-8
-                   string.
-    [long string]  An [int] n, followed by n bytes representing an UTF-8 string.
-    [uuid]         A 16 bytes long uuid.
-    [string list]  A [short] n, followed by n [string].
-    [bytes]        A [int] n, followed by n bytes if n >= 0. If n < 0,
-                   no byte should follow and the value represented is `null`.
-    [short bytes]  A [short] n, followed by n bytes if n >= 0.
-
-    [option]       A pair of <id><value> where <id> is a [short] representing
-                   the option id and <value> depends on that option (and can be
-                   of size 0). The supported id (and the corresponding <value>)
-                   will be described when this is used.
-    [option list]  A [short] n, followed by n [option].
-    [inet]         An address (ip and port) to a node. It consists of one
-                   [byte] n, that represents the address size, followed by n
-                   [byte] representing the IP address (in practice n can only be
-                   either 4 (IPv4) or 16 (IPv6)), following by one [int]
-                   representing the port.
-    [consistency]  A consistency level specification. This is a [short]
-                   representing a consistency level with the following
-                   correspondance:
-                     0x0000    ANY
-                     0x0001    ONE
-                     0x0002    TWO
-                     0x0003    THREE
-                     0x0004    QUORUM
-                     0x0005    ALL
-                     0x0006    LOCAL_QUORUM
-                     0x0007    EACH_QUORUM
-                     0x000A    LOCAL_ONE
-
-    [string map]      A [short] n, followed by n pair <k><v> where <k> and <v>
-                      are [string].
-    [string multimap] A [short] n, followed by n pair <k><v> where <k> is a
-                      [string] and <v> is a [string list].
-
-
-4. Messages
-
-4.1. Requests
-
-  Note that outside of their normal responses (described below), all requests
-  can get an ERROR message (Section 4.2.1) as response.
-
-4.1.1. STARTUP
-
-  Initialize the connection. The server will respond by either a READY message
-  (in which case the connection is ready for queries) or an AUTHENTICATE message
-  (in which case credentials will need to be provided using CREDENTIALS).
-
-  This must be the first message of the connection, except for OPTIONS that can
-  be sent before to find out the options supported by the server. Once the
-  connection has been initialized, a client should not send any more STARTUP
-  message.
-
-  The body is a [string map] of options. Possible options are:
-    - "CQL_VERSION": the version of CQL to use. This option is mandatory and
-      currenty, the only version supported is "3.0.0". Note that this is
-      different from the protocol version.
-    - "COMPRESSION": the compression algorithm to use for frames (See section 5).
-      This is optional, if not specified no compression will be used.
-
-
-4.1.2. CREDENTIALS
-
-  Provides credentials information for the purpose of identification. This
-  message comes as a response to an AUTHENTICATE message from the server, but
-  can be use later in the communication to change the authentication
-  information.
-
-  The body is a list of key/value informations. It is a [short] n, followed by n
-  pair of [string]. These key/value pairs are passed as is to the Cassandra
-  IAuthenticator and thus the detail of which informations is needed depends on
-  that authenticator.
-
-  The response to a CREDENTIALS is a READY message (or an ERROR message).
-
-
-4.1.3. OPTIONS
-
-  Asks the server to return what STARTUP options are supported. The body of an
-  OPTIONS message should be empty and the server will respond with a SUPPORTED
-  message.
-
-
-4.1.4. QUERY
-
-  Performs a CQL query. The body of the message consists of a CQL query as a [long
-  string] followed by the [consistency] for the operation.
-
-  Note that the consistency is ignored by some queries (USE, CREATE, ALTER,
-  TRUNCATE, ...).
-
-  The server will respond to a QUERY message with a RESULT message, the content
-  of which depends on the query.
-
-
-4.1.5. PREPARE
-
-  Prepare a query for later execution (through EXECUTE). The body consists of
-  the CQL query to prepare as a [long string].
-
-  The server will respond with a RESULT message with a `prepared` kind (0x0004,
-  see Section 4.2.5).
-
-
-4.1.6. EXECUTE
-
-  Executes a prepared query. The body of the message must be:
-    <id><n><value_1>....<value_n><consistency>
-  where:
-    - <id> is the prepared query ID. It's the [short bytes] returned as a
-      response to a PREPARE message.
-    - <n> is a [short] indicating the number of following values.
-    - <value_1>...<value_n> are the [bytes] to use for bound variables in the
-      prepared query.
-    - <consistency> is the [consistency] level for the operation.
-
-  Note that the consistency is ignored by some (prepared) queries (USE, CREATE,
-  ALTER, TRUNCATE, ...).
-
-  The response from the server will be a RESULT message.
-
-
-4.1.7. REGISTER
-
-  Register this connection to receive some type of events. The body of the
-  message is a [string list] representing the event types to register to. See
-  section 4.2.6 for the list of valid event types.
-
-  The response to a REGISTER message will be a READY message.
-
-  Please note that if a client driver maintains multiple connections to a
-  Cassandra node and/or connections to multiple nodes, it is advised to
-  dedicate a handful of connections to receive events, but to *not* register
-  for events on all connections, as this would only result in receiving
-  multiple times the same event messages, wasting bandwidth.
-
-
-4.2. Responses
-
-  This section describes the content of the frame body for the different
-  responses. Please note that to make room for future evolution, clients should
-  support extra informations (that they should simply discard) to the one
-  described in this document at the end of the frame body.
-
-4.2.1. ERROR
-
-  Indicates an error processing a request. The body of the message will be an
-  error code ([int]) followed by a [string] error message. Then, depending on
-  the exception, more content may follow. The error codes are defined in
-  Section 7, along with their additional content if any.
-
-
-4.2.2. READY
-
-  Indicates that the server is ready to process queries. This message will be
-  sent by the server either after a STARTUP message if no authentication is
-  required, or after a successful CREDENTIALS message.
-
-  The body of a READY message is empty.
-
-
-4.2.3. AUTHENTICATE
-
-  Indicates that the server require authentication. This will be sent following
-  a STARTUP message and must be answered by a CREDENTIALS message from the
-  client to provide authentication informations.
-
-  The body consists of a single [string] indicating the full class name of the
-  IAuthenticator in use.
-
-
-4.2.4. SUPPORTED
-
-  Indicates which startup options are supported by the server. This message
-  comes as a response to an OPTIONS message.
-
-  The body of a SUPPORTED message is a [string multimap]. This multimap gives
-  for each of the supported STARTUP options, the list of supported values.
-
-
-4.2.5. RESULT
-
-  The result to a query (QUERY, PREPARE or EXECUTE messages).
-
-  The first element of the body of a RESULT message is an [int] representing the
-  `kind` of result. The rest of the body depends on the kind. The kind can be
-  one of:
-    0x0001    Void: for results carrying no information.
-    0x0002    Rows: for results to select queries, returning a set of rows.
-    0x0003    Set_keyspace: the result to a `use` query.
-    0x0004    Prepared: result to a PREPARE message.
-    0x0005    Schema_change: the result to a schema altering query.
-
-  The body for each kind (after the [int] kind) is defined below.
-
-
-4.2.5.1. Void
-
-  The rest of the body for a Void result is empty. It indicates that a query was
-  successful without providing more information.
-
-
-4.2.5.2. Rows
-
-  Indicates a set of rows. The rest of body of a Rows result is:
-    <metadata><rows_count><rows_content>
-  where:
-    - <metadata> is composed of:
-        <flags><columns_count><global_table_spec>?<col_spec_1>...<col_spec_n>
-      where:
-        - <flags> is an [int]. The bits of <flags> provides information on the
-          formatting of the remaining informations. A flag is set if the bit
-          corresponding to its `mask` is set. Supported flags are, given there
-          mask:
-            0x0001    Global_tables_spec: if set, only one table spec (keyspace
-                      and table name) is provided as <global_table_spec>. If not
-                      set, <global_table_spec> is not present.
-        - <columns_count> is an [int] representing the number of columns selected
-          by the query this result is of. It defines the number of <col_spec_i>
-          elements in and the number of element for each row in <rows_content>.
-        - <global_table_spec> is present if the Global_tables_spec is set in
-          <flags>. If present, it is composed of two [string] representing the
-          (unique) keyspace name and table name the columns return are of.
-        - <col_spec_i> specifies the columns returned in the query. There is
-          <column_count> such column specification that are composed of:
-            (<ksname><tablename>)?<column_name><type>
-          The initial <ksname> and <tablename> are two [string] are only present
-          if the Global_tables_spec flag is not set. The <column_name> is a
-          [string] and <type> is an [option] that correspond to the column name
-          and type. The option for <type> is either a native type (see below),
-          in which case the option has no value, or a 'custom' type, in which
-          case the value is a [string] representing the full qualified class
-          name of the type represented. Valid option ids are:
-            0x0000    Custom: the value is a [string], see above.
-            0x0001    Ascii
-            0x0002    Bigint
-            0x0003    Blob
-            0x0004    Boolean
-            0x0005    Counter
-            0x0006    Decimal
-            0x0007    Double
-            0x0008    Float
-            0x0009    Int
-            0x000A    Text
-            0x000B    Timestamp
-            0x000C    Uuid
-            0x000D    Varchar
-            0x000E    Varint
-            0x000F    Timeuuid
-            0x0010    Inet
-            0x0020    List: the value is an [option], representing the type
-                            of the elements of the list.
-            0x0021    Map: the value is two [option], representing the types of the
-                           keys and values of the map
-            0x0022    Set: the value is an [option], representing the type
-                            of the elements of the set
-    - <rows_count> is an [int] representing the number of rows present in this
-      result. Those rows are serialized in the <rows_content> part.
-    - <rows_content> is composed of <row_1>...<row_m> where m is <rows_count>.
-      Each <row_i> is composed of <value_1>...<value_n> where n is
-      <columns_count> and where <value_j> is a [bytes] representing the value
-      returned for the jth column of the ith row. In other words, <rows_content>
-      is composed of (<rows_count> * <columns_count>) [bytes].
-
-
-4.2.5.3. Set_keyspace
-
-  The result to a `use` query. The body (after the kind [int]) is a single
-  [string] indicating the name of the keyspace that has been set.
-
-
-4.2.5.4. Prepared
-
-  The result to a PREPARE message. The rest of the body of a Prepared result is:
-    <id><metadata>
-  where:
-    - <id> is [short bytes] representing the prepared query ID.
-    - <metadata> is defined exactly as for a Rows RESULT (See section 4.2.5.2).
-
-  Note that prepared query ID return is global to the node on which the query
-  has been prepared. It can be used on any connection to that node and this
-  until the node is restarted (after which the query must be reprepared).
-
-4.2.5.5. Schema_change
-
-  The result to a schema altering query (creation/update/drop of a
-  keyspace/table/index). The body (after the kind [int]) is composed of 3
-  [string]:
-    <change><keyspace><table>
-  where:
-    - <change> describe the type of change that has occured. It can be one of
-      "CREATED", "UPDATED" or "DROPPED".
-    - <keyspace> is the name of the affected keyspace or the keyspace of the
-      affected table.
-    - <table> is the name of the affected table. <table> will be empty (i.e.
-      the empty string "") if the change was affecting a keyspace and not a
-      table.
-
-  Note that queries to create and drop an index are considered changes
-  updating the table the index is on.  Queries that create, alter, or drop
-  user-defined types (availble in Cassandra 2.1+) are considered changes
-  updating the keyspace the type is defined in.
-
-
-4.2.6. EVENT
-
-  And event pushed by the server. A client will only receive events for the
-  type it has REGISTER to. The body of an EVENT message will start by a
-  [string] representing the event type. The rest of the message depends on the
-  event type. The valid event types are:
-    - "TOPOLOGY_CHANGE": events related to change in the cluster topology.
-      Currently, events are sent when new nodes are added to the cluster, and
-      when nodes are removed. The body of the message (after the event type)
-      consists of a [string] and an [inet], corresponding respectively to the
-      type of change ("NEW_NODE", "REMOVED_NODE", or "MOVED_NODE") followed
-      by the address of the new/removed/moved node.
-    - "STATUS_CHANGE": events related to change of node status. Currently,
-      up/down events are sent. The body of the message (after the event type)
-      consists of a [string] and an [inet], corresponding respectively to the
-      type of status change ("UP" or "DOWN") followed by the address of the
-      concerned node.
-    - "SCHEMA_CHANGE": events related to schema change. The body of the message
-      (after the event type) consists of 3 [string] corresponding respectively
-      to the type of schema change ("CREATED", "UPDATED" or "DROPPED"),
-      followed by the name of the affected keyspace and the name of the
-      affected table within that keyspace. For changes that affect a keyspace
-      directly, the table name will be empty (i.e. the empty string "").
-      Changes to user-defined types (available in Cassandra 2.1+) will result
-      in an "UPDATED" change for the keyspace containing the type, and the
-      table name will be empty.
-
-  All EVENT message have a streamId of -1 (Section 2.3).
-
-  Please note that "NEW_NODE" and "UP" events are sent based on internal Gossip
-  communication and as such may be sent a short delay before the binary
-  protocol server on the newly up node is fully started. Clients are thus
-  advise to wait a short time before trying to connect to the node (1 seconds
-  should be enough), otherwise they may experience a connection refusal at
-  first.
-
-  It is possible for the same event to be sent multiple times. Therefore,
-  a client library should ignore the same event if it has already been notified
-  of a change.
-
-5. Compression
-
-  Frame compression is supported by the protocol, but then only the frame body
-  is compressed (the frame header should never be compressed).
-
-  Before being used, client and server must agree on a compression algorithm to
-  use, which is done in the STARTUP message. As a consequence, a STARTUP message
-  must never be compressed.  However, once the STARTUP frame has been received
-  by the server can be compressed (including the response to the STARTUP
-  request). Frame do not have to be compressed however, even if compression has
-  been agreed upon (a server may only compress frame above a certain size at its
-  discretion). A frame body should be compressed if and only if the compressed
-  flag (see Section 2.2) is set.
-
-
-6. Data Type Serialization Formats
-
-  This sections describes the serialization formats for all CQL data types
-  supported by Cassandra through the native protocol.  These serialization
-  formats should be used by client drivers to encode values for EXECUTE
-  messages.  Cassandra will use these formats when returning values in
-  RESULT messages.
-
-  All values are represented as [bytes] in EXECUTE and RESULT messages.
-  The [bytes] format includes an int prefix denoting the length of the value.
-  For that reason, the serialization formats described here will not include
-  a length component.
-
-  For legacy compatibility reasons, note that most non-string types support
-  "empty" values (i.e. a value with zero length).  An empty value is distinct
-  from NULL, which is encoded with a negative length.
-
-  As with the rest of the native protocol, all encodings are big-endian.
-
-6.1. ascii
-
-  A sequence of bytes in the ASCII range [0, 127].  Bytes with values outside of
-  this range will result in a validation error.
-
-6.2 bigint
-
-  An eight-byte two's complement integer.
-
-6.3 blob
-
-  Any sequence of bytes.
-
-6.4 boolean
-
-  A single byte.  A value of 0 denotes "false"; any other value denotes "true".
-  (However, it is recommended that a value of 1 be used to represent "true".)
-
-6.5 decimal
-
-  The decimal format represents an arbitrary-precision number.  It contains an
-  [int] "scale" component followed by a varint encoding (see section 6.17)
-  of the unscaled value.  The encoded value represents "<unscaled>E<-scale>".
-  In other words, "<unscaled> * 10 ^ (-1 * <scale>)".
-
-6.6 double
-
-  An eight-byte floating point number in the IEEE 754 binary64 format.
-
-6.7 float
-
-  An four-byte floating point number in the IEEE 754 binary32 format.
-
-6.8 inet
-
-  A 4 byte or 16 byte sequence denoting an IPv4 or IPv6 address, respectively.
-
-6.9 int
-
-  A four-byte two's complement integer.
-
-6.10 list
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of elements in the list, followed by n
-  elements.  Each element is [short bytes] representing the serialized value.
-
-6.11 map
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of key/value pairs in the map, followed by
-  n entries.  Each entry is composed of two [short bytes] representing the key
-  and value.
-
-6.12 set
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of elements in the set, followed by n
-  elements.  Each element is [short bytes] representing the serialized value.
-
-6.13 text
-
-  A sequence of bytes conforming to the UTF-8 specifications.
-
-6.14 timestamp
-
-  An eight-byte two's complement integer representing a millisecond-precision
-  offset from the unix epoch (00:00:00, January 1st, 1970).  Negative values
-  represent a negative offset from the epoch.
-
-6.15 uuid
-
-  A 16 byte sequence representing any valid UUID as defined by RFC 4122.
-
-6.16 varchar
-
-  An alias of the "text" type.
-
-6.17 varint
-
-  A variable-length two's complement encoding of a signed integer.
-
-  The following examples may help implementors of this spec:
-
-  Value | Encoding
-  ------|---------
-      0 |     0x00
-      1 |     0x01
-    127 |     0x7F
-    128 |   0x0080
-     -1 |     0xFF
-   -128 |     0x80
-   -129 |   0xFF7F
-
-  Note that positive numbers must use a most-significant byte with a value
-  less than 0x80, because a most-significant bit of 1 indicates a negative
-  value.  Implementors should pad positive values that have a MSB >= 0x80
-  with a leading 0x00 byte.
-
-6.18 timeuuid
-
-  A 16 byte sequence representing a version 1 UUID as defined by RFC 4122.
-
-
-7. Error codes
-
-  The supported error codes are described below:
-    0x0000    Server error: something unexpected happened. This indicates a
-              server-side bug.
-    0x000A    Protocol error: some client message triggered a protocol
-              violation (for instance a QUERY message is sent before a STARTUP
-              one has been sent)
-    0x0100    Bad credentials: CREDENTIALS request failed because Cassandra
-              did not accept the provided credentials.
-
-    0x1000    Unavailable exception. The rest of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><required><alive>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <required> is an [int] representing the number of node that
-                           should be alive to respect <cl>
-                <alive> is an [int] representing the number of replica that
-                        were known to be alive when the request has been
-                        processed (since an unavailable exception has been
-                        triggered, there will be <alive> < <required>)
-    0x1001    Overloaded: the request cannot be processed because the
-              coordinator node is overloaded
-    0x1002    Is_bootstrapping: the request was a read request but the
-              coordinator node is bootstrapping
-    0x1003    Truncate_error: error during a truncation error.
-    0x1100    Write_timeout: Timeout exception during a write request. The rest
-              of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><received><blockfor><writeType>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <received> is an [int] representing the number of nodes having
-                           acknowledged the request.
-                <blockfor> is an [int] representing the number of replica whose
-                           acknowledgement is required to achieve <cl>.
-                <writeType> is a [string] that describe the type of the write
-                            that timeouted. The value of that string can be one
-                            of:
-                             - "SIMPLE": the write was a non-batched
-                               non-counter write.
-                             - "BATCH": the write was a (logged) batch write.
-                               If this type is received, it means the batch log
-                               has been successfully written (otherwise a
-                               "BATCH_LOG" type would have been send instead).
-                             - "UNLOGGED_BATCH": the write was an unlogged
-                               batch. Not batch log write has been attempted.
-                             - "COUNTER": the write was a counter write
-                               (batched or not).
-                             - "BATCH_LOG": the timeout occured during the
-                               write to the batch log when a (logged) batch
-                               write was requested.
-    0x1200    Read_timeout: Timeout exception during a read request. The rest
-              of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><received><blockfor><data_present>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <received> is an [int] representing the number of nodes having
-                           answered the request.
-                <blockfor> is an [int] representing the number of replicas whose
-                           response is required to achieve <cl>. Please note that it
-                           is possible to have <received> >= <blockfor> if
-                           <data_present> is false. And also in the (unlikely)
-                           case were <cl> is achieved but the coordinator node
-                           timeout while waiting for read-repair
-                           acknowledgement.
-                <data_present> is a single byte. If its value is 0, it means
-                               the replica that was asked for data has not
-                               responded. Otherwise, the value is != 0.
-
-    0x2000    Syntax_error: The submitted query has a syntax error.
-    0x2100    Unauthorized: The logged user doesn't have the right to perform
-              the query.

-              body will be <ks><table> where:
-                <ks> is a [string] representing either the keyspace that
-                     already exists, or the keyspace in which the table that
-                     already exists is.
-                <table> is a [string] representing the name of the table that
-                        already exists. If the query was attempting to create a
-                        keyspace, <table> will be present but will be the empty
-                        string.
-    0x2500    Unprepared: Can be thrown while a prepared statement tries to be

-1. Overview
-
-  The CQL binary protocol is a frame based protocol. Frames are defined as:
-
-      0         8        16        24        32
-      +---------+---------+---------+---------+
-      | version |  flags  | stream  | opcode  |
-      +---------+---------+---------+---------+
-      |                length                 |
-      +---------+---------+---------+---------+
-      |                                       |
-      .            ...  body ...              .
-      .                                       .
-      .                                       .
-      +----------------------------------------
-
-  The protocol is big-endian (network byte order).
-
-  Each frame contains a fixed size header (8 bytes) followed by a variable size
-  body. The header is described in Section 2. The content of the body depends
-  on the header opcode value (the body can in particular be empty for some
-  opcode values). The list of allowed opcode is defined Section 2.3 and the
-  details of each corresponding message is described Section 4.
-
-  The protocol distinguishes 2 types of frames: requests and responses. Requests
-  are those frame sent by the clients to the server, response are the ones sent
-  by the server. Note however that the protocol supports server pushes (events)
-  so responses does not necessarily come right after a client request.
-
-  Note to client implementors: clients library should always assume that the
-  body of a given frame may contain more data than what is described in this
-  document. It will however always be safe to ignore the remaining of the frame
-  body in such cases. The reason is that this may allow to sometimes extend the
-  protocol with optional features without needing to change the protocol
-  version.
-
-
-
-2. Frame header
-
-2.1. version
-
-  The version is a single byte that indicate both the direction of the message
-  (request or response) and the version of the protocol in use. The up-most bit
-  of version is used to define the direction of the message: 0 indicates a
-  request, 1 indicates a responses. This can be useful for protocol analyzers to
-  distinguish the nature of the packet from the direction which it is moving.
-  The rest of that byte is the protocol version (2 for the protocol defined in
-  this document). In other words, for this version of the protocol, version will
-  have one of:
-    0x02    Request frame for this protocol version
-    0x82    Response frame for this protocol version
-
-  Please note that the while every message ship with the version, only one version
-  of messages is accepted on a given connection. In other words, the first message
-  exchanged (STARTUP) sets the version for the connection for the lifetime of this
-  connection.
-
-  This document describe the version 2 of the protocol. For the changes made since
-  version 1, see Section 9.
-
-
-2.2. flags
-
-  Flags applying to this frame. The flags have the following meaning (described
-  by the mask that allow to select them):
-    0x01: Compression flag. If set, the frame body is compressed. The actual
-          compression to use should have been set up beforehand through the
-          Startup message (which thus cannot be compressed; Section 4.1.1).
-    0x02: Tracing flag. For a request frame, this indicate the client requires
-          tracing of the request. Note that not all requests support tracing.
-          Currently, only QUERY, PREPARE and EXECUTE queries support tracing.
-          Other requests will simply ignore the tracing flag if set. If a
-          request support tracing and the tracing flag was set, the response to
-          this request will have the tracing flag set and contain tracing
-          information.
-          If a response frame has the tracing flag set, its body contains
-          a tracing ID. The tracing ID is a [uuid] and is the first thing in
-          the frame body. The rest of the body will then be the usual body
-          corresponding to the response opcode.
-
-  The rest of the flags is currently unused and ignored.
-
-2.3. stream
-
-  A frame has a stream id (one signed byte). When sending request messages, this
-  stream id must be set by the client to a positive byte (negative stream id
-  are reserved for streams initiated by the server; currently all EVENT messages
-  (section 4.2.6) have a streamId of -1). If a client sends a request message
-  with the stream id X, it is guaranteed that the stream id of the response to
-  that message will be X.
-
-  This allow to deal with the asynchronous nature of the protocol. If a client
-  sends multiple messages simultaneously (without waiting for responses), there
-  is no guarantee on the order of the responses. For instance, if the client
-  writes REQ_1, REQ_2, REQ_3 on the wire (in that order), the server might
-  respond to REQ_3 (or REQ_2) first. Assigning different stream id to these 3
-  requests allows the client to distinguish to which request an received answer
-  respond to. As there can only be 128 different simultaneous stream, it is up
-  to the client to reuse stream id.
-
-  Note that clients are free to use the protocol synchronously (i.e. wait for
-  the response to REQ_N before sending REQ_N+1). In that case, the stream id
-  can be safely set to 0. Clients should also feel free to use only a subset of
-  the 128 maximum possible stream ids if it is simpler for those
-  implementation.
-
-2.4. opcode
-
-  An integer byte that distinguish the actual message:
-    0x00    ERROR
-    0x01    STARTUP
-    0x02    READY
-    0x03    AUTHENTICATE
-    0x05    OPTIONS
-    0x06    SUPPORTED
-    0x07    QUERY
-    0x08    RESULT
-    0x09    PREPARE
-    0x0A    EXECUTE
-    0x0B    REGISTER
-    0x0C    EVENT
-    0x0D    BATCH
-    0x0E    AUTH_CHALLENGE
-    0x0F    AUTH_RESPONSE
-    0x10    AUTH_SUCCESS
-
-  Messages are described in Section 4.
-
-  (Note that there is no 0x04 message in this version of the protocol)
-
-
-2.5. length
-
-  A 4 byte integer representing the length of the body of the frame (note:
-  currently a frame is limited to 256MB in length).
-
-
-3. Notations
-
-  To describe the layout of the frame body for the messages in Section 4, we
-  define the following:
-
-    [int]          A 4 byte integer
-    [short]        A 2 byte unsigned integer
-    [string]       A [short] n, followed by n bytes representing an UTF-8
-                   string.
-    [long string]  An [int] n, followed by n bytes representing an UTF-8 string.
-    [uuid]         A 16 bytes long uuid.
-    [string list]  A [short] n, followed by n [string].
-    [bytes]        A [int] n, followed by n bytes if n >= 0. If n < 0,
-                   no byte should follow and the value represented is `null`.
-    [short bytes]  A [short] n, followed by n bytes if n >= 0.
-
-    [option]       A pair of <id><value> where <id> is a [short] representing
-                   the option id and <value> depends on that option (and can be
-                   of size 0). The supported id (and the corresponding <value>)
-                   will be described when this is used.
-    [option list]  A [short] n, followed by n [option].
-    [inet]         An address (ip and port) to a node. It consists of one
-                   [byte] n, that represents the address size, followed by n
-                   [byte] representing the IP address (in practice n can only be
-                   either 4 (IPv4) or 16 (IPv6)), following by one [int]
-                   representing the port.
-    [consistency]  A consistency level specification. This is a [short]
-                   representing a consistency level with the following
-                   correspondance:
-                     0x0000    ANY
-                     0x0001    ONE
-                     0x0002    TWO
-                     0x0003    THREE
-                     0x0004    QUORUM
-                     0x0005    ALL
-                     0x0006    LOCAL_QUORUM
-                     0x0007    EACH_QUORUM
-                     0x0008    SERIAL
-                     0x0009    LOCAL_SERIAL
-                     0x000A    LOCAL_ONE
-
-    [string map]      A [short] n, followed by n pair <k><v> where <k> and <v>
-                      are [string].
-    [string multimap] A [short] n, followed by n pair <k><v> where <k> is a
-                      [string] and <v> is a [string list].
-
-
-4. Messages
-
-4.1. Requests
-
-  Note that outside of their normal responses (described below), all requests
-  can get an ERROR message (Section 4.2.1) as response.
-
-4.1.1. STARTUP
-
-  Initialize the connection. The server will respond by either a READY message
-  (in which case the connection is ready for queries) or an AUTHENTICATE message
-  (in which case credentials will need to be provided using AUTH_RESPONSE).
-
-  This must be the first message of the connection, except for OPTIONS that can
-  be sent before to find out the options supported by the server. Once the
-  connection has been initialized, a client should not send any more STARTUP
-  message.
-
-  The body is a [string map] of options. Possible options are:
-    - "CQL_VERSION": the version of CQL to use. This option is mandatory and
-      currenty, the only version supported is "3.0.0". Note that this is
-      different from the protocol version.
-    - "COMPRESSION": the compression algorithm to use for frames (See section 5).
-      This is optional, if not specified no compression will be used.
-
-
-4.1.2. AUTH_RESPONSE
-
-  Answers a server authentication challenge.
-
-  Authentication in the protocol is SASL based. The server sends authentication
-  challenges (a bytes token) to which the client answer with this message. Those
-  exchanges continue until the server accepts the authentication by sending a
-  AUTH_SUCCESS message after a client AUTH_RESPONSE. It is however that client that
-  initiate the exchange by sending an initial AUTH_RESPONSE in response to a
-  server AUTHENTICATE request.
-
-  The body of this message is a single [bytes] token. The details of what this
-  token contains (and when it can be null/empty, if ever) depends on the actual
-  authenticator used.
-
-  The response to a AUTH_RESPONSE is either a follow-up AUTH_CHALLENGE message,
-  an AUTH_SUCCESS message or an ERROR message.
-
-
-4.1.3. OPTIONS
-
-  Asks the server to return what STARTUP options are supported. The body of an
-  OPTIONS message should be empty and the server will respond with a SUPPORTED
-  message.
-
-
-4.1.4. QUERY
-
-  Performs a CQL query. The body of the message must be:
-    <query><query_parameters>
-  where <query> is a [long string] representing the query and
-  <query_parameters> must be
-    <consistency><flags>[<n><value_1>...<value_n>][<result_page_size>][<paging_state>][<serial_consistency>]
-  where:
-    - <consistency> is the [consistency] level for the operation.
-    - <flags> is a [byte] whose bits define the options for this query and
-      in particular influence what the remainder of the message contains.
-      A flag is set if the bit corresponding to its `mask` is set. Supported
-      flags are, given there mask:
-        0x01: Values. In that case, a [short] <n> followed by <n> [bytes]
-              values are provided. Those value are used for bound variables in
-              the query.
-        0x02: Skip_metadata. If present, the Result Set returned as a response
-              to that query (if any) will have the NO_METADATA flag (see
-              Section 4.2.5.2).
-        0x04: Page_size. In that case, <result_page_size> is an [int]
-              controlling the desired page size of the result (in CQL3 rows).
-              See the section on paging (Section 7) for more details.
-        0x08: With_paging_state. If present, <paging_state> should be present.
-              <paging_state> is a [bytes] value that should have been returned
-              in a result set (Section 4.2.5.2). If provided, the query will be
-              executed but starting from a given paging state. This also to
-              continue paging on a different node from the one it has been
-              started (See Section 7 for more details).
-        0x10: With serial consistency. If present, <serial_consistency> should be
-              present. <serial_consistency> is the [consistency] level for the
-              serial phase of conditional updates. That consitency can only be
-              either SERIAL or LOCAL_SERIAL and if not present, it defaults to
-              SERIAL. This option will be ignored for anything else that a
-              conditional update/insert.
-
-  Note that the consistency is ignored by some queries (USE, CREATE, ALTER,
-  TRUNCATE, ...).
-
-  The server will respond to a QUERY message with a RESULT message, the content
-  of which depends on the query.
-
-
-4.1.5. PREPARE
-
-  Prepare a query for later execution (through EXECUTE). The body consists of
-  the CQL query to prepare as a [long string].
-
-  The server will respond with a RESULT message with a `prepared` kind (0x0004,
-  see Section 4.2.5).
-
-
-4.1.6. EXECUTE
-
-  Executes a prepared query. The body of the message must be:
-    <id><query_parameters>
-  where <id> is the prepared query ID. It's the [short bytes] returned as a
-  response to a PREPARE message. As for <query_parameters>, it has the exact
-  same definition than in QUERY (see Section 4.1.4).
-
-  The response from the server will be a RESULT message.
-
-
-4.1.7. BATCH
-
-  Allows executing a list of queries (prepared or not) as a batch (note that
-  only DML statements are accepted in a batch). The body of the message must
-  be:
-    <type><n><query_1>...<query_n><consistency>
-  where:
-    - <type> is a [byte] indicating the type of batch to use:
-        - If <type> == 0, the batch will be "logged". This is equivalent to a
-          normal CQL3 batch statement.
-        - If <type> == 1, the batch will be "unlogged".
-        - If <type> == 2, the batch will be a "counter" batch (and non-counter
-          statements will be rejected).
-    - <n> is a [short] indicating the number of following queries.
-    - <query_1>...<query_n> are the queries to execute. A <query_i> must be of the
-      form:
-        <kind><string_or_id><n><value_1>...<value_n>
-      where:
-       - <kind> is a [byte] indicating whether the following query is a prepared
-         one or not. <kind> value must be either 0 or 1.
-       - <string_or_id> depends on the value of <kind>. If <kind> == 0, it should be
-         a [long string] query string (as in QUERY, the query string might contain
-         bind markers). Otherwise (that is, if <kind> == 1), it should be a
-         [short bytes] representing a prepared query ID.
-       - <n> is a [short] indicating the number (possibly 0) of following values.
-       - <value_1>...<value_n> are the [bytes] to use for bound variables.
-    - <consistency> is the [consistency] level for the operation.
-
-  The server will respond with a RESULT message with a `Void` kind (0x0001,
-  see Section 4.2.5).
-
-
-4.1.8. REGISTER
-
-  Register this connection to receive some type of events. The body of the
-  message is a [string list] representing the event types to register to. See
-  section 4.2.6 for the list of valid event types.
-
-  The response to a REGISTER message will be a READY message.
-
-  Please note that if a client driver maintains multiple connections to a
-  Cassandra node and/or connections to multiple nodes, it is advised to
-  dedicate a handful of connections to receive events, but to *not* register
-  for events on all connections, as this would only result in receiving
-  multiple times the same event messages, wasting bandwidth.
-
-
-4.2. Responses
-
-  This section describes the content of the frame body for the different
-  responses. Please note that to make room for future evolution, clients should
-  support extra informations (that they should simply discard) to the one
-  described in this document at the end of the frame body.
-
-4.2.1. ERROR
-
-  Indicates an error processing a request. The body of the message will be an
-  error code ([int]) followed by a [string] error message. Then, depending on
-  the exception, more content may follow. The error codes are defined in
-  Section 8, along with their additional content if any.
-
-
-4.2.2. READY
-
-  Indicates that the server is ready to process queries. This message will be
-  sent by the server either after a STARTUP message if no authentication is
-  required, or after a successful CREDENTIALS message.
-
-  The body of a READY message is empty.
-
-
-4.2.3. AUTHENTICATE
-
-  Indicates that the server require authentication, and which authentication
-  mechanism to use.
-
-  The authentication is SASL based and thus consists on a number of server
-  challenges (AUTH_CHALLENGE, Section 4.2.7) followed by client responses
-  (AUTH_RESPONSE, Section 4.1.2). The Initial exchange is however boostrapped
-  by an initial client response. The details of that exchange (including how
-  much challenge-response pair are required) are specific to the authenticator
-  in use. The exchange ends when the server sends an AUTH_SUCCESS message or
-  an ERROR message.
-
-  This message will be sent following a STARTUP message if authentication is
-  required and must be answered by a AUTH_RESPONSE message from the client.
-
-  The body consists of a single [string] indicating the full class name of the
-  IAuthenticator in use.
-
-
-4.2.4. SUPPORTED
-
-  Indicates which startup options are supported by the server. This message
-  comes as a response to an OPTIONS message.
-
-  The body of a SUPPORTED message is a [string multimap]. This multimap gives
-  for each of the supported STARTUP options, the list of supported values.
-
-
-4.2.5. RESULT
-
-  The result to a query (QUERY, PREPARE, EXECUTE or BATCH messages).
-
-  The first element of the body of a RESULT message is an [int] representing the
-  `kind` of result. The rest of the body depends on the kind. The kind can be
-  one of:
-    0x0001    Void: for results carrying no information.
-    0x0002    Rows: for results to select queries, returning a set of rows.
-    0x0003    Set_keyspace: the result to a `use` query.
-    0x0004    Prepared: result to a PREPARE message.
-    0x0005    Schema_change: the result to a schema altering query.
-
-  The body for each kind (after the [int] kind) is defined below.
-
-
-4.2.5.1. Void
-
-  The rest of the body for a Void result is empty. It indicates that a query was
-  successful without providing more information.
-
-
-4.2.5.2. Rows
-
-  Indicates a set of rows. The rest of body of a Rows result is:
-    <metadata><rows_count><rows_content>
-  where:
-    - <metadata> is composed of:
-        <flags><columns_count>[<paging_state>][<global_table_spec>?<col_spec_1>...<col_spec_n>]
-      where:
-        - <flags> is an [int]. The bits of <flags> provides information on the
-          formatting of the remaining informations. A flag is set if the bit
-          corresponding to its `mask` is set. Supported flags are, given there
-          mask:
-            0x0001    Global_tables_spec: if set, only one table spec (keyspace
-                      and table name) is provided as <global_table_spec>. If not
-                      set, <global_table_spec> is not present.
-            0x0002    Has_more_pages: indicates whether this is not the last
-                      page of results and more should be retrieve. If set, the
-                      <paging_state> will be present. The <paging_state> is a
-                      [bytes] value that should be used in QUERY/EXECUTE to
-                      continue paging and retrieve the remained of the result for
-                      this query (See Section 7 for more details).
-            0x0004    No_metadata: if set, the <metadata> is only composed of
-                      these <flags>, the <column_count> and optionally the
-                      <paging_state> (depending on the Has_more_pages flage) but
-                      no other information (so no <global_table_spec> nor <col_spec_i>).
-                      This will only ever be the case if this was requested
-                      during the query (see QUERY and RESULT messages).
-        - <columns_count> is an [int] representing the number of columns selected
-          by the query this result is of. It defines the number of <col_spec_i>
-          elements in and the number of element for each row in <rows_content>.
-        - <global_table_spec> is present if the Global_tables_spec is set in
-          <flags>. If present, it is composed of two [string] representing the
-          (unique) keyspace name and table name the columns return are of.
-        - <col_spec_i> specifies the columns returned in the query. There is
-          <column_count> such column specifications that are composed of:
-            (<ksname><tablename>)?<name><type>
-          The initial <ksname> and <tablename> are two [string] are only present
-          if the Global_tables_spec flag is not set. The <column_name> is a
-          [string] and <type> is an [option] that correspond to the description
-          (what this description is depends a bit on the context: in results to
-          selects, this will be either the user chosen alias or the selection used
-          (often a colum name, but it can be a function call too). In results to
-          a PREPARE, this will be either the name of the bind variable corresponding
-          or the column name for the variable if it is "anonymous") and type of
-          the corresponding result. The option for <type> is either a native
-          type (see below), in which case the option has no value, or a
-          'custom' type, in which case the value is a [string] representing
-          the full qualified class name of the type represented. Valid option
-          ids are:
-            0x0000    Custom: the value is a [string], see above.
-            0x0001    Ascii
-            0x0002    Bigint
-            0x0003    Blob
-            0x0004    Boolean
-            0x0005    Counter
-            0x0006    Decimal
-            0x0007    Double
-            0x0008    Float
-            0x0009    Int
-            0x000A    Text
-            0x000B    Timestamp
-            0x000C    Uuid
-            0x000D    Varchar
-            0x000E    Varint
-            0x000F    Timeuuid
-            0x0010    Inet
-            0x0020    List: the value is an [option], representing the type
-                            of the elements of the list.
-            0x0021    Map: the value is two [option], representing the types of the
-                           keys and values of the map
-            0x0022    Set: the value is an [option], representing the type
-                            of the elements of the set
-    - <rows_count> is an [int] representing the number of rows present in this
-      result. Those rows are serialized in the <rows_content> part.
-    - <rows_content> is composed of <row_1>...<row_m> where m is <rows_count>.
-      Each <row_i> is composed of <value_1>...<value_n> where n is
-      <columns_count> and where <value_j> is a [bytes] representing the value
-      returned for the jth column of the ith row. In other words, <rows_content>
-      is composed of (<rows_count> * <columns_count>) [bytes].
-
-
-4.2.5.3. Set_keyspace
-
-  The result to a `use` query. The body (after the kind [int]) is a single
-  [string] indicating the name of the keyspace that has been set.
-
-
-4.2.5.4. Prepared
-
-  The result to a PREPARE message. The rest of the body of a Prepared result is:
-    <id><metadata><result_metadata>
-  where:
-    - <id> is [short bytes] representing the prepared query ID.
-    - <metadata> is defined exactly as for a Rows RESULT (See section 4.2.5.2; you
-      can however assume that the Has_more_pages flag is always off) and
-      is the specification for the variable bound in this prepare statement.
-    - <result_metadata> is defined exactly as <metadata> but correspond to the
-      metadata for the resultSet that execute this query will yield. Note that
-      <result_metadata> may be empty (have the No_metadata flag and 0 columns, See
-      section 4.2.5.2) and will be for any query that is not a Select. There is
-      in fact never a guarantee that this will non-empty so client should protect
-      themselves accordingly. The presence of this information is an
-      optimization that allows to later execute the statement that has been
-      prepared without requesting the metadata (Skip_metadata flag in EXECUTE).
-      Clients can safely discard this metadata if they do not want to take
-      advantage of that optimization.
-
-  Note that prepared query ID return is global to the node on which the query
-  has been prepared. It can be used on any connection to that node and this
-  until the node is restarted (after which the query must be reprepared).
-
-4.2.5.5. Schema_change
-
-  The result to a schema altering query (creation/update/drop of a
-  keyspace/table/index). The body (after the kind [int]) is composed of 3
-  [string]:
-    <change><keyspace><table>
-  where:
-    - <change> describe the type of change that has occured. It can be one of
-      "CREATED", "UPDATED" or "DROPPED".
-    - <keyspace> is the name of the affected keyspace or the keyspace of the
-      affected table.
-    - <table> is the name of the affected table. <table> will be empty (i.e.
-      the empty string "") if the change was affecting a keyspace and not a
-      table.
-
-  Note that queries to create and drop an index are considered changes
-  updating the table the index is on.  Queries that create, alter, or drop
-  user-defined types (availble in Cassandra 2.1+) are considered changes
-  updating the keyspace the type is defined in.
-
-
-4.2.6. EVENT
-
-  And event pushed by the server. A client will only receive events for the
-  type it has REGISTER to. The body of an EVENT message will start by a
-  [string] representing the event type. The rest of the message depends on the
-  event type. The valid event types are:
-    - "TOPOLOGY_CHANGE": events related to change in the cluster topology.
-      Currently, events are sent when new nodes are added to the cluster, and
-      when nodes are removed. The body of the message (after the event type)
-      consists of a [string] and an [inet], corresponding respectively to the
-      type of change ("NEW_NODE", "REMOVED_NODE", or "MOVED_NODE") followed
-      by the address of the new/removed/moved node.
-    - "STATUS_CHANGE": events related to change of node status. Currently,
-      up/down events are sent. The body of the message (after the event type)
-      consists of a [string] and an [inet], corresponding respectively to the
-      type of status change ("UP" or "DOWN") followed by the address of the
-      concerned node.
-    - "SCHEMA_CHANGE": events related to schema change. The body of the message
-      (after the event type) consists of 3 [string] corresponding respectively
-      to the type of schema change ("CREATED", "UPDATED" or "DROPPED"),
-      followed by the name of the affected keyspace and the name of the
-      affected table within that keyspace. For changes that affect a keyspace
-      directly, the table name will be empty (i.e. the empty string "").
-      Changes to user-defined types (available in Cassandra 2.1+) will result
-      in an "UPDATED" change for the keyspace containing the type, and the
-      table name will be empty.
-
-  All EVENT message have a streamId of -1 (Section 2.3).
-
-  Please note that "NEW_NODE" and "UP" events are sent based on internal Gossip
-  communication and as such may be sent a short delay before the binary
-  protocol server on the newly up node is fully started. Clients are thus
-  advise to wait a short time before trying to connect to the node (1 seconds
-  should be enough), otherwise they may experience a connection refusal at
-  first.
-
-  It is possible for the same event to be sent multiple times. Therefore,
-  a client library should ignore the same event if it has already been notified
-  of a change.
-
-4.2.7. AUTH_CHALLENGE
-
-  A server authentication challenge (see AUTH_RESPONSE (Section 4.1.2) for more
-  details).
-
-  The body of this message is a single [bytes] token. The details of what this
-  token contains (and when it can be null/empty, if ever) depends on the actual
-  authenticator used.
-
-  Clients are expected to answer the server challenge by an AUTH_RESPONSE
-  message.
-
-4.2.7. AUTH_SUCCESS
-
-  Indicate the success of the authentication phase. See Section 4.2.3 for more
-  details.
-
-  The body of this message is a single [bytes] token holding final information
-  from the server that the client may require to finish the authentication
-  process. What that token contains and whether it can be null depends on the
-  actual authenticator used.
-
-
-5. Compression
-
-  Frame compression is supported by the protocol, but then only the frame body
-  is compressed (the frame header should never be compressed).
-
-  Before being used, client and server must agree on a compression algorithm to
-  use, which is done in the STARTUP message. As a consequence, a STARTUP message
-  must never be compressed.  However, once the STARTUP frame has been received
-  by the server can be compressed (including the response to the STARTUP
-  request). Frame do not have to be compressed however, even if compression has
-  been agreed upon (a server may only compress frame above a certain size at its
-  discretion). A frame body should be compressed if and only if the compressed
-  flag (see Section 2.2) is set.
-
-  As of this version 2 of the protocol, the following compressions are available:
-    - lz4 (https://code.google.com/p/lz4/). In that, note that the 4 first bytes
-      of the body will be the uncompressed length (followed by the compressed
-      bytes).
-    - snappy (https://code.google.com/p/snappy/). This compression might not be
-      available as it depends on a native lib (server-side) that might not be
-      avaivable on some installation.
-
-
-6. Data Type Serialization Formats
-
-  This sections describes the serialization formats for all CQL data types
-  supported by Cassandra through the native protocol.  These serialization
-  formats should be used by client drivers to encode values for EXECUTE
-  messages.  Cassandra will use these formats when returning values in
-  RESULT messages.
-
-  All values are represented as [bytes] in EXECUTE and RESULT messages.
-  The [bytes] format includes an int prefix denoting the length of the value.
-  For that reason, the serialization formats described here will not include
-  a length component.
-
-  For legacy compatibility reasons, note that most non-string types support
-  "empty" values (i.e. a value with zero length).  An empty value is distinct
-  from NULL, which is encoded with a negative length.
-
-  As with the rest of the native protocol, all encodings are big-endian.
-
-6.1. ascii
-
-  A sequence of bytes in the ASCII range [0, 127].  Bytes with values outside of
-  this range will result in a validation error.
-
-6.2 bigint
-
-  An eight-byte two's complement integer.
-
-6.3 blob
-
-  Any sequence of bytes.
-
-6.4 boolean
-
-  A single byte.  A value of 0 denotes "false"; any other value denotes "true".
-  (However, it is recommended that a value of 1 be used to represent "true".)
-
-6.5 decimal
-
-  The decimal format represents an arbitrary-precision number.  It contains an
-  [int] "scale" component followed by a varint encoding (see section 6.17)
-  of the unscaled value.  The encoded value represents "<unscaled>E<-scale>".
-  In other words, "<unscaled> * 10 ^ (-1 * <scale>)".
-
-6.6 double
-
-  An eight-byte floating point number in the IEEE 754 binary64 format.
-
-6.7 float
-
-  An four-byte floating point number in the IEEE 754 binary32 format.
-
-6.8 inet
-
-  A 4 byte or 16 byte sequence denoting an IPv4 or IPv6 address, respectively.
-
-6.9 int
-
-  A four-byte two's complement integer.
-
-6.10 list
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of elements in the list, followed by n
-  elements.  Each element is [short bytes] representing the serialized value.
-
-6.11 map
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of key/value pairs in the map, followed by
-  n entries.  Each entry is composed of two [short bytes] representing the key
-  and value.
-
-6.12 set
-
-  A [short] n indicating the number of elements in the set, followed by n
-  elements.  Each element is [short bytes] representing the serialized value.
-
-6.13 text
-
-  A sequence of bytes conforming to the UTF-8 specifications.
-
-6.14 timestamp
-
-  An eight-byte two's complement integer representing a millisecond-precision
-  offset from the unix epoch (00:00:00, January 1st, 1970).  Negative values
-  represent a negative offset from the epoch.
-
-6.15 uuid
-
-  A 16 byte sequence representing any valid UUID as defined by RFC 4122.
-
-6.16 varchar
-
-  An alias of the "text" type.
-
-6.17 varint
-
-  A variable-length two's complement encoding of a signed integer.
-
-  The following examples may help implementors of this spec:
-
-  Value | Encoding
-  ------|---------
-      0 |     0x00
-      1 |     0x01
-    127 |     0x7F
-    128 |   0x0080
-    129 |   0x0081
-     -1 |     0xFF
-   -128 |     0x80
-   -129 |   0xFF7F
-
-  Note that positive numbers must use a most-significant byte with a value
-  less than 0x80, because a most-significant bit of 1 indicates a negative
-  value.  Implementors should pad positive values that have a MSB >= 0x80
-  with a leading 0x00 byte.
-
-6.18 timeuuid
-
-  A 16 byte sequence representing a version 1 UUID as defined by RFC 4122.
-
-
-7. Result paging
-
-  The protocol allows for paging the result of queries. For that, the QUERY and
-  EXECUTE messages have a <result_page_size> value that indicate the desired
-  page size in CQL3 rows.
-
-  If a positive value is provided for <result_page_size>, the result set of the
-  RESULT message returned for the query will contain at most the
-  <result_page_size> first rows of the query result. If that first page of result
-  contains the full result set for the query, the RESULT message (of kind `Rows`)
-  will have the Has_more_pages flag *not* set. However, if some results are not
-  part of the first response, the Has_more_pages flag will be set and the result
-  will contain a <paging_state> value. In that case, the <paging_state> value
-  should be used in a QUERY or EXECUTE message (that has the *same* query than
-  the original one or the behavior is undefined) to retrieve the next page of
-  results.
-
-  Only CQL3 queries that return a result set (RESULT message with a Rows `kind`)
-  support paging. For other type of queries, the <result_page_size> value is
-  ignored.
-
-  Note to client implementors:
-  - While <result_page_size> can be as low as 1, it will likely be detrimental
-    to performance to pick a value too low. A value below 100 is probably too
-    low for most use cases.
-  - Clients should not rely on the actual size of the result set returned to
-    decide if there is more result to fetch or not. Instead, they should always
-    check the Has_more_pages flag (unless they did not enabled paging for the query
-    obviously). Clients should also not assert that no result will have more than
-    <result_page_size> results. While the current implementation always respect
-    the exact value of <result_page_size>, we reserve ourselves the right to return
-    slightly smaller or bigger pages in the future for performance reasons.
-
-
-8. Error codes
-
-  The supported error codes are described below:
-    0x0000    Server error: something unexpected happened. This indicates a
-              server-side bug.
-    0x000A    Protocol error: some client message triggered a protocol
-              violation (for instance a QUERY message is sent before a STARTUP
-              one has been sent)
-    0x0100    Bad credentials: CREDENTIALS request failed because Cassandra
-              did not accept the provided credentials.
-
-    0x1000    Unavailable exception. The rest of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><required><alive>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <required> is an [int] representing the number of node that
-                           should be alive to respect <cl>
-                <alive> is an [int] representing the number of replica that
-                        were known to be alive when the request has been
-                        processed (since an unavailable exception has been
-                        triggered, there will be <alive> < <required>)
-    0x1001    Overloaded: the request cannot be processed because the
-              coordinator node is overloaded
-    0x1002    Is_bootstrapping: the request was a read request but the
-              coordinator node is bootstrapping
-    0x1003    Truncate_error: error during a truncation error.
-    0x1100    Write_timeout: Timeout exception during a write request. The rest
-              of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><received><blockfor><writeType>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <received> is an [int] representing the number of nodes having
-                           acknowledged the request.
-                <blockfor> is an [int] representing the number of replica whose
-                           acknowledgement is required to achieve <cl>.
-                <writeType> is a [string] that describe the type of the write
-                            that timeouted. The value of that string can be one
-                            of:
-                             - "SIMPLE": the write was a non-batched
-                               non-counter write.
-                             - "BATCH": the write was a (logged) batch write.
-                               If this type is received, it means the batch log
-                               has been successfully written (otherwise a
-                               "BATCH_LOG" type would have been send instead).
-                             - "UNLOGGED_BATCH": the write was an unlogged
-                               batch. Not batch log write has been attempted.
-                             - "COUNTER": the write was a counter write
-                               (batched or not).
-                             - "BATCH_LOG": the timeout occured during the
-                               write to the batch log when a (logged) batch
-                               write was requested.
-    0x1200    Read_timeout: Timeout exception during a read request. The rest
-              of the ERROR message body will be
-                <cl><received><blockfor><data_present>
-              where:
-                <cl> is the [consistency] level of the query having triggered
-                     the exception.
-                <received> is an [int] representing the number of nodes having
-                           answered the request.
-                <blockfor> is an [int] representing the number of replica whose
-                           response is required to achieve <cl>. Please note that it
-                           is possible to have <received> >= <blockfor> if
-                           <data_present> is false. And also in the (unlikely)
-                           case were <cl> is achieved but the coordinator node
-                           timeout while waiting for read-repair
-                           acknowledgement.
-                <data_present> is a single byte. If its value is 0, it means
-                               the replica that was asked for data has not
-                               responded. Otherwise, the value is != 0.
-
-    0x2000    Syntax_error: The submitted query has a syntax error.
-    0x2100    Unauthorized: The logged user doesn't have the right to perform
-              the query.
-    0x2200    Invalid: The query is syntactically correct but invalid.
-    0x2300    Config_error: The query is invalid because of some configuration issue
-    0x2400    Already_exists: The query attempted to create a keyspace or a
-              table that was already existing. The rest of the ERROR message
-              body will be <ks><table> where:
-                <ks> is a [string] representing either the keyspace that
-                     already exists, or the keyspace in which the table that
-                     already exists is.
-                <table> is a [string] representing the name of the table that
-                        already exists. If the query was attempting to create a
-                        keyspace, <table> will be present but will be the empty
-                        string.
-    0x2500    Unprepared: Can be thrown while a prepared statement tries to be
-              executed if the provide prepared statement ID is not known by
-              this host. The rest of the ERROR message body will be [short
-              bytes] representing the unknown ID.
-
-9. Changes from v1
-  * Protocol is versioned to allow old client connects to a newer server, if a
-    newer client connects to an older server, it needs to check if it gets a
-    ProtocolException on connection and try connecting with a lower version.
-  * A query can now have bind variables even though the statement is not
-    prepared; see Section 4.1.4.
-  * A new BATCH message allows to batch a set of queries (prepared or not); see 
-    Section 4.1.7.
-  * Authentication now uses SASL. Concretely, the CREDENTIALS message has been
-    removed and replaced by a server/client challenges/responses exchanges (done
-    through the new AUTH_RESPONSE/AUTH_CHALLENGE messages). See Section 4.2.3 for
-    details.
-  * Query paging has been added (Section 7): QUERY and EXECUTE message have an
-    additional <result_page_size> [int] and <paging_state> [bytes], and
-    the Rows kind of RESULT message has an additional flag and <paging_state> 
-    value. Note that paging is optional, and a client that do not want to handle
-    can simply avoid including the Page_size flag and parameter in QUERY and
-    EXECUTE.
-  * QUERY and EXECUTE statements can request for the metadata to be skipped in
-    the result set returned (for efficiency reasons) if said metadata are known
-    in advance. Furthermore, the result to a PREPARE (section 4.2.5.4) now
-    includes the metadata for the result of executing the statement just
-    prepared (though those metadata will be empty for non SELECT statements).
