Eric, This v2 series addresses the feedback from the last single patch. The syntax is kept from what we last discussed, I think we're done bikeshedding there. As a compromise we keep the bools to start off with as recently discussed on the mailing list. This is also availabe in git form on my git.kernel.org xfsprogs-dev tree on the 20180517-own-parser branch [0]. Lemme know what you'all think. [0] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/xfsprogs-dev.git/log/?h=20180517-own-parser Luis Chnages from v1: - Stayed with our own parser as its the smallest and we're willing to maintain it as its simple and clear. - Use -c for the configuration file, and drop the "type" nomenclature to avoid confusion on the interwebs. - Start to split files off - Duplicate a bit of items as suggested at LSFMM for the configuration parser structures. We can later consolidate if we think its really needed, however we want the freedom to change these as we see fit and most importantly keep the code apart. - Conflict resolution and validation is managed now by piggy backing off of the idea of using the defaults to instantiate CLI parameters. CLI always overrides. Luis R. Rodriguez (5): mkfs: distinguish between struct sb_feat_args and struct cli_params mkfs: move shared structs and cli params into their own headers mkfs: replace defaults source with an enum mkfs: add helpers to process defaults mkfs.xfs: add configuration file parsing support using our own parser include/builddefs.in | 2 + man/man5/mkfs.xfs.d.5 | 121 ++++++++++ man/man8/mkfs.xfs.8 | 26 +++ mkfs/Makefile | 2 +- mkfs/xfs_mkfs.c | 235 ++++++++------------ mkfs/xfs_mkfs_cli.h | 65 ++++++ mkfs/xfs_mkfs_common.h | 87 ++++++++ mkfs/xfs_mkfs_config.c | 591 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ mkfs/xfs_mkfs_config.h | 11 + 9 files changed, 1002 insertions(+), 138 deletions(-) create mode 100644 man/man5/mkfs.xfs.d.5 create mode 100644 mkfs/xfs_mkfs_cli.h create mode 100644 mkfs/xfs_mkfs_common.h create mode 100644 mkfs/xfs_mkfs_config.c create mode 100644 mkfs/xfs_mkfs_config.h -- 2.16.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
