Subject: [PATCH v3 02/11] ip: Add IN4_MASK() macro for IPv4 netmask calculation
Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2026 16:44:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260130214447.2540791-3-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260130214447.2540791-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>
Add a convenience macro to compute an IPv4 netmask from a prefix length.
This simplifies netmask calculations throughout the codebase.
