* [PATCH] iproute2: support dotted-quad netmask notation.

Suggested patch for allowing netmask to be specified in dotted quad format.
See http://bugs.debian.org/357172

(Known problem: this will not prevent some invalid syntaxes,
ie. "255.0.255.0" will be treated as "255.255.255.0")

Comments? Suggestions? Improvements?

Fix the bug you mentioned?

/* a valid netmask must be 2^n - 1 (n = 1..31) */
static int is_valid_netmask(const inet_prefix *addr)
{
	uint32_t host;

	if (addr->family != AF_INET)
		return 0;

	host = ~ntohl(addr->data[0]);
	if (host == 0 || ~host == 0)
		return 0;

	return (host & (host + 1)) == 0;
}

Updated patch, added your netmask validation code but without the check
that made 0.0.0.0 (default) and 255.255.255.255 (one address) invalid
netmasks as they are permitted in CIDR format.

I think both previous patches where broken on big-endian platforms.
Here's an updated patch again. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience!

Just to make sure.... It looks on git.kernel.org like you applied the wrong
patch. (Maybe you just haven't pushed out the latest changes there yet.)
Please double-check that you actually applied the latest version (which is
the one in the mail you replied "applied" to, important part quoted above). 


Additionally, there's still a couple of trivial patches pending in
the "patches" branch of 
git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/pkg-iproute.git

Please see the original thread[1], where Patrick McHarding had some concerns
about one of the patches. It's exactly the same changes you made in commit
660818498d0f5a3f52c05355a3e82c23f670fcc1 [2] though, so I don't really see the
problem. I have an additional patch[3] available, that makes MAX_ROUNDS
configurable which Patrick requested.

Please comment on the way forward there....


[1]: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg44800.html
[2]: Where the comment seems to be wrong about "Limit ip route flush...",
     since it's actually "ip neigh flush" that's being modified.
[3]: I have a slightly updated patch, but it's basically the same as
     http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg45080.html
	 Will send updated version if the patches it's based on goes in.

Actually, I took your logic and moved it to a new function:

static unsigned cidr(const inet_prefix *addr)
{
	unsigned bits = 0;
	u_int32_t mask;

	for (mask = ntohl(addr->data[0]); mask; mask <<= 1)
		++bits;

	return bits;
}
