//
// acl_comment - "ignore" ACL subject type.
//
// CommentAclSubjects were a bad idea, badly implemented. The code below
// exists solely to keep existing (external) ACL forms from blowing up the
// ACL reader machinery and crashing the evaluation host.
// The original serialization code was not architecture independent - for either
// pointer sizes(!) or byte ordering. Yes, that was a stupid mistake.
// The following code is intentionally, wilfully violating the layer separation
// of the ACL reader/writer machine to deduce enough information about the
// originating architecture to cleanly consume (just) the bytes making up this
// ACL's external representation. We make no use of the bytes read; thankfully,
// the semantics of a CommentAclSubject have always been "never matches."
// We do not preserve them on write-out; a newly-written ACL will contain no data
// (and will read cleanly).
// If you use this code as a template for anything (other than a how-not-to-write-code
// seminar), your backups shall rot right after your main harddrive crashes, and
// you have only yourself to blame.

//
// This is the nasty code. We don't really care what data was originally baked
// into this ACL's external (stream) form, but since there's no external framing
// to delimit it, we need to figure out how many bytes to consume to keep the
// reader from going out of sync. And that's not pretty, since the external form
// contains (stupidly!) a pointer, so we have all permutations of byte order and
// pointer size to worry about.
//
CommentAclSubject *CommentAclSubject::Maker::make(Version, Reader &pub, Reader &) const
{
	//
	// At this point, the Reader is positioned at data that was once written using
	// this code:
	//	pub(ptr);  // yes, that's a pointer
    //	pub.countedData(ptr, size);
	// We know ptr was a non-NULL pointer (4 or 8 bytes, alas).
	// CountedData writes a 4-byte NBO length followed by that many bytes.
	// The data written starts with a CSSM_LIST structure in native architecture.
	// That in turn begins with a CSSM_LIST_TYPE (4 bytes, native, 0<=type<=2).
	// So to summarize (h=host byte order, n=network byte order), we might be looking at:
	//   32 bits:  | P4h | L4n | T4h | (L-4 bytes) |
	//   64 bits:  |    P8h    | L4n |  (L bytes)  |
	// It's the T4h-or-L4n bytes that save our day, since we know that
	//	0 <= T <= 2 (definition of CSSM_LIST_TYPE)
	//	16M > L >= sizeof(CSSM_LIST) >= 12
	// Phew. I'd rather be lucky than good...
	//
	// So let's get started:
	static const size_t minCssmList = 12;	// min(sizeof(CSSM_LIST)) of all architectures
	pub.get<void>(4);			// skip first 4 bytes
	uint32_t lop; pub(lop);		// read L4n-or-(bottom of)P8h
	uint32_t tol; pub(tol);		// read T4h-or-L4n
	if (tol <= 2 || flip(tol) <= 2) {	// 32 bits
		// the latter can't be a very big (flipped) L because we know 12 < L < 16M,
		// and you'd have to be a multiple of 2^24 to pass that test
		size_t length = n2h(lop);
		assert(length >= minCssmList);
		pub.get<void>(length - sizeof(tol)); // skip L-4 bytes
	} else {							// 64 bits
		size_t length = n2h(tol);
		assert(length >= minCssmList);
		pub.get<void>(length); // skip L bytes
	}
	
	// we've successfully thrown out the garbage. What's left is a data-less subject
	return new CommentAclSubject();		// no data
}
