[PATCH 1/2] util: hash: Improve debugability of "Duplicate key" error message

Thu Jan 16 14:34:30 UTC 2020


If we get an user reporting this error message being shown it's pretty
useless in terms of actually debugging it since we don't know which hash
and which key are actually subject to the error.

This patch adds a new hash table callback which formats the
user-readable version of the hash key and reports it in the new message
which will look like:

"Duplicate hash table key 'blah'"

That way we will at least have an anchor point where to start the
search.

There are two special implementations of keys which are numeric so we
add specific printer functions for them.
