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 	{ ip=1.2.3.4 label="abc\n" alen=3 ary=[ 5 2=10 ] }
113 
114     Note that omitted fields and array elements get their default
115     values ("bar" and ary[2]), and that the alignment is handled
116     automatically (the extra 00 byte after "alen").  Also, since byte
117     order and alignment are inherently machine dependent, so is this
118     conversion process.  The above example shows an x86 (little
119     endian) encoding.  Also the above example is tricky because the
120     structure is variable length, depending on 'alen', the number of
121     elements in the array 'ary'.
122 
123     Here is how one would define a parse type for the above structure,
124     subclassing the pre-defined types below.  We construct the type in
125     a 'bottom up' fashion, defining each field's type first, then the
126     type for the whole structure ('//' comments used to avoid breakage).
127 
128     // Super-type info for 'label' field
129     struct ng_parse_fixedstring_info foo_label_info = { 8 };
130 
131     // Parse type for 'label' field
132     struct ng_parse_type foo_label_type = {
133 	    &ng_parse_fixedstring_type		// super-type
134 	    &foo_label_info			// super-type info
135     };
136 
137     #define OFFSETOF(s, e) ((char *)&((s *)0)->e - (char *)((s *)0))
138 
139     // Function to compute the length of the array 'ary', which
140     // is variable length, depending on the previous field 'alen'.
141     // Upon entry 'buf' will be pointing at &ary[0].
142     int
143     foo_ary_getLength(const struct ng_parse_type *type,
144 	    const u_char *start, const u_char *buf)
145     {
146 	    const struct foo *f;
147 
148 	    f = (const struct foo *)(buf - OFFSETOF(struct foo, ary));
149 	    return f->alen;
150     }
151 
152     // Super-type info for 'ary' field
153     struct ng_parse_array_info foo_ary_info = {
154 	    &ng_parse_int16_type,		// element type
155 	    &foo_ary_getLength			// func to get array length
156     }
157 
158     // Parse type for 'ary' field
159     struct ng_parse_type foo_ary_type = {
160 	    &ng_parse_array_type,		// super-type
161 	    &foo_ary_info			// super-type info
162     };
163 
164     // Super-type info for struct foo
165     struct ng_parse_struct_field foo_fields[] = {
166 	    { "ip",	&ng_parse_ipaddr_type	},
167 	    { "bar",	&ng_parse_int32_type	},
168 	    { "label",	&foo_label_type		},
169 	    { "alen",	&ng_parse_uint8_type	},
170 	    { "ary",	&foo_ary_type		},
171 	    { NULL }
172     };
173 
174     // Parse type for struct foo
175     struct ng_parse_type foo_type = {
176 	    &ng_parse_struct_type,		// super-type
177 	    &foo_fields				// super-type info
178     };
179 
180   To define a type, you can define it as a sub-type of a predefined
181   type as shown above, possibly overriding some of the predefined
182   type's methods, or define an entirely new syntax, with the restriction
183   that the ASCII representation of your type's value must not contain
184   any whitespace or any of these characters: { } [ ] = "
185 
186   See ng_ksocket.c for an example of how to do this for 'struct sockaddr'.
187   See ng_parse.c to see implementations of the pre-defined types below.
