Subject: [PATCH 01/18] conf: Split parsing of port specifiers from the rest of -[tuTU] parsing
Date: Tue,  7 Apr 2026 13:16:13 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407031630.2457081-2-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260407031630.2457081-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

conf_ports() is extremely long, but we want to refactor it so that parts
can be shared with the upcoming configuration client.  Make a small start
by separating out the section that parses just the port specification
(not including address and/or interface).

This also allows us to constify a few extra things, and while we're there
replace a few vague error messages with more specific ones.
