+// Slice API
+// =========
+//
+// Adding a "slice" clause to the +marshal directive for structs or newtypes on
+// primitives like this:
+//
+// // +marshal slice:FooSlice
+// type Foo struct { ... }
+//
+// Generates four additional functions for marshalling slices of Foos like this:
+//
+// // MarshalUnsafeFooSlice is like Foo.MarshalUnsafe, buf for a []Foo. It's
+// // more efficient that repeatedly calling calling Foo.MarshalUnsafe over a
+// // []Foo in a loop.
+// func MarshalUnsafeFooSlice(src []Foo, dst []byte) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// // UnmarshalUnsafeFooSlice is like Foo.UnmarshalUnsafe, buf for a []Foo. It's
+// // more efficient that repeatedly calling calling Foo.UnmarshalUnsafe over a
+// // []Foo in a loop.
+// func UnmarshalUnsafeFooSlice(dst []Foo, src []byte) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// // CopyFooSliceIn copies in a slice of Foo objects from the task's memory.
+// func CopyFooSliceIn(task marshal.Task, addr usermem.Addr, dst []Foo) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// // CopyFooSliceIn copies out a slice of Foo objects to the task's memory.
+// func CopyFooSliceOut(task marshal.Task, addr usermem.Addr, src []Foo) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// The name of the functions are of the format "Copy%sIn" and "Copy%sOut", where
+// %s is the first argument to the slice clause. This directive is not supported
+// for newtypes on arrays.
+//
+// The slice clause also takes an optional second argument, which must be the
+// value "inner":
+//
+// // +marshal slice:Int32Slice:inner
+// type Int32 int32
+//
+// This is only valid on newtypes on primitives, and causes the generated
+// functions to accept slices of the inner type instead:
+//
+// func CopyInt32SliceIn(task marshal.Task, addr usermem.Addr, dst []int32) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// Without "inner", they would instead be:
+//
+// func CopyInt32SliceIn(task marshal.Task, addr usermem.Addr, dst []Int32) (int, error) { ... }
+//
+// This may help avoid a cast depending on how the generated functions are used.
