are called by the stream parser (the callbacks are listed below).
void strp_pause(struct strparser *strp)
::
void strp_pause(struct strparser *strp)
Temporarily pause a stream parser. Message parsing is suspended
and no new messages are delivered to the upper layer.
void strp_unpause(struct strparser *strp)
::
void strp_unpause(struct strparser *strp)
Unpause a paused stream parser.
void strp_stop(struct strparser *strp);
::
void strp_stop(struct strparser *strp);
strp_stop is called to completely stop stream parser operations.
This is called internally when the stream parser encounters an
error, and it is called from the upper layer to stop parsing
operations.
void strp_done(struct strparser *strp);

void strp_done(struct strparser *strp);
strp_done is called to release any resources held by the stream
parser instance. This must be called after the stream processor
has been stopped.
