57 * Execution Path
58 * ==============
59 *
60 * Three stylized functions accompany each of these data structures:
61 *
62 * "pre-run" "run" "post-run"
63 * --------------- ------------ -----------------
64 * *ctl ->prerequisites ->run ->postprocess
65 *
66 * Any *ctl command implementation should go through the following execution
67 * path:
68 *
69 * 1. parses user command-line input and finds the corresponding syntax
70 * structures.
71 *
72 * 2. calls prerequisites() for getting the columns or tables used by each
73 * command.
74 *
75 * 3. calls run() to execute each command and to generate output.
76 *
77 * 4. calls postprocess() after output has been committed. (Only needed
78 * by 'create' command sofar)
79 *
80 * Execution Context
81 * =================
82 *
83 * Each of the stylized functions requires the 'struct ctl_context' as input
84 * to provide context e.g. command-line arguments, table to be modified. User
85 * may define more specific context (by inheriting 'struct ctl_context') and
86 * write stylized functions that use it. In that case, CONTAINER_OF() can
87 * be used to cast the generic context to the specific one.
