1. Please, don't include non-system headers using <>. Use "".
The same for box/ibuf.h.

2. It should set a diag error in case of fail.

3. I would better assume all the arguments are not NULL, and document
it. Especially ibuf itself. We need some border where to stop the
sanity checks, and this looks like an overkill already. For example,
box_tuple_ref() also works with a pointer, but it does not check for
it being not NULL. It is just stupid to call method of an object with
that object passed as NULL. The same below.

4. Please, finish sentences with a dot. I don't understand.
Is it so hard for people to put a dot in the end? Does it
cost money or something? Do people write the same way in
other places, like emails, documents? Why is the code allowed
to be treated worse?

Talking of the comments content - they are mostly useless.
What is read range, what is write range? How do they relate?
Is a user supposed to update them manually, when work with the
buffer? Current description makes it impossible to use
box_ibuf_t without reading the source code. What users are
not supposed to do usually to be able to use the API.
