47 
48   This defines a library of routines for converting between various C
49   language types in binary form and ASCII strings.  Types are user
50   definable.  Several pre-defined types are supplied, for some common
51   C types: structures, variable and fixed length arrays, integer types,
52   variable and fixed length strings, IP addresses, etc.
53 
54   A netgraph node type may provide a list of types that correspond to
55   the structures it expects to send and receive in the arguments field
56   of a control message.  This allows these messages to be converted
57   between their native binary form and the corresponding ASCII form.
58 
59   A future use of the ASCII form may be for inter-machine communication
60   of control messages, because the ASCII form is machine independent
61   whereas the native binary form is not.
62 
63   Syntax
64   ------
65 
66     Structures:
67 
68       '{' [ <name>=<value> ... ] '}'
69 
70       Omitted fields have their default values by implication.
71       The order in which the fields are specified does not matter.
72 
73     Arrays:
74 
75       '[' [ [index=]<value> ... ] ']'
76 
77       Element value may be specified with or without the "<index>=" prefix;
78       If omitted, the index after the previous element is used.
79       Omitted fields have their default values by implication.
80 
81     Strings:
82 
83       "foo bar blah\r\n"
84 
85       That is, strings are specified just like C strings. The usual
86       backslash escapes are accepted.
87 
88     Other simple types (integers, IP addresses) have their obvious forms.
89 
90   Example
91   -------
92 
93     Suppose we have a netgraph command that takes as an argument
94     a 'struct foo' shown below.  Here is an example of a possible
95     value for the structure, and the corresponding ASCII encoding
96     of that value:
97 
98 	Structure			Binary value
99 	---------			------------
100 
101 	struct foo {
102 	    struct in_addr ip;  	01 02 03 04
103 	    int bar;			00 00 00 00
104 	    char label[8];		61 62 63 0a 00 00 00 00
105 	    u_char alen;		03 00
106 	    short ary[];	  	05 00 00 00 0a 00
107 	};
108 
109 	ASCII value
110 	-----------
111 	{ ip=1.2.3.4 label="abc\n" alen=3 ary=[ 5 2=10 ] }
112 
113     Note that omitted fields and array elements get their default
114     values ("bar" and ary[2]), and that the alignment is handled
115     automatically (the extra 00 byte after "alen").  Also, since byte
116     order and alignment are inherently machine dependent, so is this
117     conversion process.  The above example shows an x86 (little
118     endian) encoding.  Also the above example is tricky because the
119     structure is variable length, depending on 'alen', the number of
120     elements in the array 'ary'.
121 
122     Here is how one would define a parse type for the above structure,
123     subclassing the pre-defined types below.  We construct the type in
124     a 'bottom up' fashion, defining each field's type first, then the
125     type for the whole structure ('//' comments used to avoid breakage).
126 
127     // Super-type info for 'label' field
128     struct ng_parse_fixedstring_info foo_label_info = { 8 };
129 
130     // Parse type for 'label' field
131     struct ng_parse_type foo_label_type = {
132 	    &ng_parse_fixedstring_type		// super-type
133 	    &foo_label_info			// super-type info
134     };
135 
136     #define OFFSETOF(s, e) ((char *)&((s *)0)->e - (char *)((s *)0))
137 
138     // Function to compute the length of the array 'ary', which
139     // is variable length, depending on the previous field 'alen'.
140     // Upon entry 'buf' will be pointing at &ary[0].
141     int
142     foo_ary_getLength(const struct ng_parse_type *type,
143 	    const u_char *start, const u_char *buf)
144     {
145 	    const struct foo *f;
146 
147 	    f = (const struct foo *)(buf - OFFSETOF(struct foo, ary));
148 	    return f->alen;
149     }
150 
151     // Super-type info for 'ary' field
152     struct ng_parse_array_info foo_ary_info = {
153 	    &ng_parse_int16_type,		// element type
154 	    &foo_ary_getLength			// func to get array length
155     }
156 
157     // Parse type for 'ary' field
158     struct ng_parse_type foo_ary_type = {
159 	    &ng_parse_array_type,		// super-type
160 	    &foo_ary_info			// super-type info
161     };
162 
163     // Super-type info for struct foo
164     struct ng_parse_struct_field foo_fields[] = {
165 	    { "ip",	&ng_parse_ipaddr_type	},
166 	    { "bar",	&ng_parse_int32_type	},
167 	    { "label",	&foo_label_type		},
168 	    { "alen",	&ng_parse_uint8_type	},
169 	    { "ary",	&foo_ary_type		},
170 	    { NULL }
171     };
172 
173     // Parse type for struct foo
174     struct ng_parse_type foo_type = {
175 	    &ng_parse_struct_type,		// super-type
176 	    &foo_fields				// super-type info
177     };
178 
179   To define a type, you can define it as a sub-type of a predefined
180   type as shown above, possibly overriding some of the predefined
181   type's methods, or define an entirely new syntax, with the restriction
182   that the ASCII representation of your type's value must not contain
183   any whitespace or any of these characters: { } [ ] = "
184 
185   See ng_ksocket.c for an example of how to do this for 'struct sockaddr'.
186   See ng_parse.c to see implementations of the pre-defined types below.
