If these functions are used only by trailer.c, then it would make
sense to move them from trailer.h to trailer.c so that they don't get
defined unnecessarily by each .c file which includes trailer.h.

Why not adjust the loop condition slightly instead so that you can
continue to accept and return size_t?

Ok, I will use "if_exists" instead of "if_exist" and also:

enum action_if_exists { EXISTS_ADD_IF_DIFFERENT, 
EXISTS_ADD_IF_DIFFERENT_NEIGHBOR,
EXISTS_ADD, EXISTS_OVERWRITE, EXISTS_DO_NOTHING };

instead of:

enum action_if_exist { EXIST_ADD_IF_DIFFERENT, EXIST_ADD_IF_DIFFERENT_NEIGHBOR,
EXIST_ADD, EXIST_OVERWRITE, EXIST_DO_NOTHING };

to be consistent.

Thanks,
Christian.

Yeah, I don't plan them to be exposed to other files.

Yeah, it's true that WHERE_AFTER/WHERE_BEFORE does not make sense for
EXIST_OVERWRITE, EXIST_DO_NOTHING and MISSING_DO_NOTHING, but it's a
fact of life that sometimes some options do not make sense with
others.

Yeah, but as Eric suggested to add them like in header files and you
did not reply to him, I thought you agreed with him.
I will remove them.

Ok, I will do that.

Ok, I will make it return an int.

Probably "if_exists" is more gramatically correct.

if (x->if_exists) {
... do this ...
}

would read well, but not "x->if_exist".

All these names and "conf_info" below are not named to be specific
to this little tool.  Can I assume that these will never be exposed
to the rest of the system?  If so, they are fine.

It still feels somewhat strange.  It is true that an item can be
either "exist" or "missing" and it is understandable that it tempts
you to split that into two, but EXIST_OVERWRITE will not trigger
either WHERE_AFTER or WHERE_BEFORE action.

All these "inlines" look premature optimization that can be
delegated to any decent compiler, don't they?

Style:

while (--len >= 0 && !isalnum(buf[len]))
;

You may add a comment on the empty statement to make it stand out
even more, i.e.

; /* nothing */

> + return (size_t) len + 1;

This is somewhat unfortunate.  if the caller wants to receive
size_t, perhaps it should be passing in size_t (or ssize_t) to the
function?  Hard to guess without an actual caller, though.
