curr_state can not be state_max_xxx. curr_state must be not bigger
than state_max_xxx. Or am I miss something?

Same here for the event boundary check.

Same here.

If the value of .final_states[state] is 0 or 1, can the type of
.final_states[state] be befined to bool. Or not need to use !! to
explicitly transfer the type to bool. I remember that you define
this as char array and the matrix model value of this array is 0 or 1
see from the next patche. 1 delegate the state it is the initial state.
0 for others.
