/*
 * The syslog-ng persistent state is a set of name-value pairs,
 * updated atomically during syslog-ng runtime. When syslog-ng
 * initializes its configuration it allocates chunks of memory to
 * represent its own state which gets mmapped from a file.
 *
 * Whenever syslog-ng writes to the state memory, it gets atomically
 * written to the persistent file.
 *
 * Allocated blocks have a name in order to make it possible to fetch
 * the same state even between syslog-ng restarts.
 *
 * Thus PersistState has two memory areas to represent the information
 *   - the key store containing names and the associated offset
 *     information basically in a sequential file
 *   - the state area containing the values
 *
 * When a new NV pair is registered, syslog-ng allocates the requested
 * area in the state, and writes a new record to the key store
 * file containing the name of the state entry and its length
 * information. If the same name is reused, it is appended to the
 * key store, never updated in-line.
 *
 * If syslog-ng crashes then both the state and the keystore should be
 * left where it was. The information processed the following way:
 *   - the key store file is read into memory and a new key store file is
 *     produced (to ensure that unused state entries are dropped)
 *   - a new state file is produced, again unused data is dropped
 *
 * Old persist files can be converted the same way.
 *
 * We're using a trick to represent both areas in the same file: some
 * space is allocated initially for the key store and once that fills
 * up, syslog-ng allocates another key store area and chains these
 * areas up using a next pointer.
 *
 * Value blocks are prefixed with an 8 byte header, containing the
 * following information:
 *   - block size (4 bytes)
 *   - format version (1 byte)
 *   - whether the block is in use (1 byte)
 *
 * Cleaning up:
 * ------------
 *
 * It can be seen that no explicit deallocation is performed on the
 * persistent file, in effect it could grow indefinitely. There's a
 * simple cleanup procedure though:
 *
 *  - on every startup, the persist file is rewritten, entries with an
 *    in_use bit set are copied to the new one, with the in_use bit cleared
 *  - whenever syslog-ng looks up (e.g. uses) an entry, its in_use bit is set again
 *
 * This way unused entries in the persist file are reaped when
 * syslog-ng restarts.
 *
 * Trusts:
 * -------
 *
 * We don't trust the on-disk file when following a reference
 * (e.g. offset, or object size) however we do trust the internal hash
 * table built after validating the disk contents. This means that if
 * you look up a key in the hashtable you can use the returned offset
 * blindly without checking. However when reading the same value from
 * the file you need to check it whether it is inside the mapped file.
