tools: ynl-gen: split presence metadata
Each YNL struct contains the data and a sub-struct indicating which
fields are valid. Something like:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
u32 bin_len;
} _present;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
};
Note that the bin object 'bin' has a length stored, and that length
has a _len suffix added to the field name. This breaks if there
is a explicit field called bin_len, which is the case for some
TC actions. Move the length fields out of the _present struct,
create a new struct called _len:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
} _present;
struct {
u32 bin;
} _len;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
};
This should prevent name collisions and help with the packing
of the struct.
Unfortunately this is a breaking change, but hopefully the migration
isn't too painful.
