//! Since we already have some reuseable code(which is from linux source tree), we'd like to 
//! use those to get a overall representation instead of use a hand written one which may be
//! error prone. This uses [rust-bindgen][1] to make the binding from C header file we can 
//! find that describes the overall structure of some format.
//!
