+ * @page unknown_entity
+ *
+ *  This entity is an auxiliary entity dedicated to support analyses.
+ *
+ *  The unknown entity represents that there could be an entity, but it is not
+ *  known.  This entity can be used to initialize fields before an analysis (not known
+ *  yet) or to represent the top of a lattice (could not be determined).  There exists
+ *  exactly one entity unknown. This entity has as owner and as type the unknown type. It is
+ *  allocated when initializing the entity module.
+ *
+ *  The entity can take the role of any entity, also methods.  It returns default
+ *  values in these cases.
+ *
+ *  The following values are set:
+ *    name          = "unknown_entity"
+ *    ld_name       = "unknown_entity"
+ *    owner         = unknown_type
+ *    type          = unknown_type
+ *    visibility    = visibility_external_allocated
+ *    offset        = -1
