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