/**
 * @file
 * @brief Feature Subgraph Ordering.

    Dynamically compute feature subgraph ordering by performing a
    topological sort across a set of "feature A before feature B" and
    "feature C after feature B" constraints.

    Use the topological sort result to set up vnet_config_main_t's for
    use at runtime.

    Feature subgraph arcs are simple enough. They start at specific
    fixed nodes, and end at specific fixed nodes.  In between, a
    per-interface current feature configuration dictates which
    additional nodes each packet visits. Each so-called feature node
    can [of course] drop any specific packet.

    See ip4_forward.c, ip6_forward.c in this directory to see the
    current rx-unicast, rx-multicast, and tx feature subgraph arc
    definitions.

    Let's say that we wish to add a new feature to the ip4 unicast
    feature subgraph arc, which needs to run before @c ip4-lookup.  In
    either base code or a plugin,
    <CODE><PRE>
    \#include <vnet/feature/feature.h>
    </PRE></CODE>

    and add the new feature as shown:

    <CODE><PRE>
    VNET_FEATURE_INIT (ip4_lookup, static) =
    {
      .arch_name = "ip4-unicast",
      .node_name = "my-ip4-unicast-feature",
      .runs_before = VLIB_FEATURES ("ip4-lookup")
    };
    </PRE></CODE>

    Here's the standard coding pattern to enable / disable
    @c my-ip4-unicast-feature on an interface:

    <CODE><PRE>

    sw_if_index = <interface-handle>
    vnet_feature_enable_disable ("ip4-unicast", "my-ip4-unicast-feature",
                                 sw_if_index, 1 );
    </PRE></CODE>

    Here's how to obtain the correct next node index in packet
    processing code, aka in the implementation of @c my-ip4-unicast-feature:

    <CODE><PRE>
    vnet_feature_next (sw_if_index0, &next0, b0);

    </PRE></CODE>

    Nodes are free to drop or otherwise redirect packets. Packets
    which "pass" should be enqueued via the next0 arc computed by
    vnet_feature_next.
