The stringnozescapes does not make sense with filename,
also we may need similar escaping for string flags.
Handle escaped strings on ast level instead.
This avoids introducing new type and works seamleassly with flags.
As alternative I've also tried using strconv.Quote/Unquote
but it leads to ugly half-escaped strings:
"\xb0\x80s\xe8\xd4N\x91\xe3ڒ,\"C\x82D\xbb\x88\\i\xe2i\xc8\xe9\xd85\xb1\x14):M\xdcn"
Make hex-encoded strings a separate string format instead.
If we are going to write all values, don't write field names.
This only increases size of generated files.
The change reduces size of generated files by 5.8%
(62870496-59410354=3460142 bytes saved).
Stop at the fist varlen field, but check the preceeding ones.
Frequently the varlen array is the last field,
so we should get good checking for these cases.
Update #590
Handle NLA_BITFIELD32.
Match string attribtues better.
Calculate and check min size for varlen structs.
Fix NLA_UNSPEC size check.
Fix some things in descriptions.
Update #590
As far as I understand most subsystems don't care about
the nest flag, but some do. But marking them as nest
won't harm (?). Let's mark all of them.
Caught several cases where should have been used array[policy]
but used just policy.
Update #590
1. Match policies that has a _suffix in our descriptions
(we frequently do this to improve precision or avoid dup names).
2. Rename policies in descriptions to match kernel names.
3. Match policy if there are several such names in kernel.
4. Recognize policies with helper sub-policies.
Update #590
They can't be a bitmask. This fixes important cases
of "0, 1" and "0, 1, 2" flags. Fix some descriptions
that added 0 to bitmasks explicitly (we should do it
automatically instead).
Will simplify runtime analysis of flags.
Also just no reason to make it more deterministic
and avoid unnecessary diffs in future if values are reordered.
Generate const[0] for flags without values and for flags
with a single value which is 0.
This is the intention in all existing cases (e.g. an enum with types
of something, but there is really only 1 type exists).
They mostly duplicate the warnings we already have for amd64/386.
But uncovered few very interesting local things (e.g. epoll_event
is packed only on amd64, so arm/arm64 layout is wrong, but 386
is correct because int64 alignment is different).
