- * string_unescape - unquote characters in the given string
- * @src: source buffer (escaped)
- * @dst: destination buffer (unescaped)
- * @size: size of the destination buffer (0 to unlimit)
- * @flags: combination of the flags (bitwise OR):
- * %UNESCAPE_SPACE:
- * '\f' - form feed
- * '\n' - new line
- * '\r' - carriage return
- * '\t' - horizontal tab
- * '\v' - vertical tab
- * %UNESCAPE_OCTAL:
- * '\NNN' - byte with octal value NNN (1 to 3 digits)
- * %UNESCAPE_HEX:
- * '\xHH' - byte with hexadecimal value HH (1 to 2 digits)
- * %UNESCAPE_SPECIAL:
- * '\"' - double quote
- * '\\' - backslash
- * '\a' - alert (BEL)
- * '\e' - escape
- * %UNESCAPE_ANY:
- * all previous together
- *
- * Returns amount of characters processed to the destination buffer excluding
- * trailing '\0'.
- *
- * Because the size of the output will be the same as or less than the size of
- * the input, the transformation may be performed in place.
- *
- * Caller must provide valid source and destination pointers. Be aware that
- * destination buffer will always be NULL-terminated. Source string must be
- * NULL-terminated as well.
