/*

  This defines a library of routines for converting between various C
  language types in binary form and ASCII strings.  Types are user
  definable.  Several pre-defined types are supplied, for some common
  C types: structures, variable and fixed length arrays, integer types,
  variable and fixed length strings, IP addresses, etc.

  A netgraph node type may provide a list of types that correspond to
  the structures it expects to send and receive in the arguments field
  of a control message.  This allows these messages to be converted
  between their native binary form and the corresponding ASCII form.

  A future use of the ASCII form may be for inter-machine communication
  of control messages, because the ASCII form is machine independent
  whereas the native binary form is not.

  Syntax
  ------

    Structures:

      '{' [ <name>=<value> ... ] '}'

      Omitted fields have their default values by implication.
      The order in which the fields are specified does not matter.

    Arrays:

      '[' [ [index=]<value> ... ] ']'

      Element value may be specified with or without the "<index>=" prefix;
      If omitted, the index after the previous element is used.
      Omitted fields have their default values by implication.

    Strings:

      "foo bar blah\r\n"

      That is, strings are specified just like C strings. The usual
      backslash escapes are accepted.

    Other simple types (integers, IP addresses) have their obvious forms.

  Example
  -------

    Suppose we have a netgraph command that takes as an argument
    a 'struct foo' shown below.  Here is an example of a possible
    value for the structure, and the corresponding ASCII encoding
    of that value:

	Structure			Binary value
	---------			------------

	struct foo {
	    struct in_addr ip;  	01 02 03 04
	    int bar;			00 00 00 00
	    char label[8];		61 62 63 0a 00 00 00 00
	    u_char alen;		03 00
	    short ary[0];	  	05 00 00 00 0a 00
	};

	ASCII value
	-----------

	{ ip=1.2.3.4 label="abc\n" alen=3 ary=[ 5 2=10 ] }

    Note that omitted fields and array elements get their default
    values ("bar" and ary[2]), and that the alignment is handled
    automatically (the extra 00 byte after "num").  Also, since byte
    order and alignment are inherently machine dependent, so is this
    conversion process.  The above example shows an x86 (little
    endian) encoding.  Also the above example is tricky because the
    structure is variable length, depending on 'alen', the number of
    elements in the array 'ary'.

    Here is how one would define a parse type for the above structure,
    subclassing the pre-defined types below.  We construct the type in
    a 'bottom up' fashion, defining each field's type first, then the
    type for the whole structure ('//' comments used to avoid breakage).

    // Super-type info for 'label' field
    struct ng_parse_fixedstring_info foo_label_info = { 8 };

    // Parse type for 'label' field
    struct ng_parse_type foo_label_type = {
	    &ng_parse_fixedstring_type		// super-type
	    &foo_label_info			// super-type info
    };

    #define OFFSETOF(s, e) ((char *)&((s *)0)->e - (char *)((s *)0))

    // Function to compute the length of the array 'ary', which
    // is variable length, depending on the previous field 'alen'.
    // Upon entry 'buf' will be pointing at &ary[0].
    int
    foo_ary_getLength(const struct ng_parse_type *type,
	    const u_char *start, const u_char *buf)
    {
	    const struct foo *f;

	    f = (const struct foo *)(buf - OFFSETOF(struct foo, ary));
	    return f->alen;
    }

    // Super-type info for 'ary' field
    struct ng_parse_array_info foo_ary_info = {
	    &ng_parse_int16_type,		// element type
	    &foo_ary_getLength			// func to get array length
    }

    // Parse type for 'ary' field
    struct ng_parse_type foo_ary_type = {
	    &ng_parse_array_type,		// super-type
	    &foo_ary_info			// super-type info
    };

    // Super-type info for struct foo
    struct ng_parse_struct_info foo_fields = {
	    { "ip",		&ng_parse_ipaddr_type	},
	    { "bar",	&ng_parse_int32_type	},
	    { "label",	&foo_label_type		},
	    { "alen",	&ng_parse_int8_type	},
	    { "ary",	&foo_ary_type		},
	    { NULL }
    };

    // Parse type for struct foo
    struct ng_parse_type foo_type = {
	    &ng_parse_struct_type,		// super-type
	    &foo_fields				// super-type info
    };

  To define a type, you can define it as a sub-type of a predefined
  type as shown above, possibly overriding some of the predefined
  type's methods, or define an entirely new syntax, with the restriction
  that the ASCII representation of your type's value must not contain
  any whitespace or any of these characters: { } [ ] = "

  See ng_ksocket.c for an example of how to do this for 'struct sockaddr'.
  See ng_parse.c to see implementations of the pre-defined types below.
