Subject: [PATCH 08/18] conf: Pass protocol explicitly to conf_ports_range_except()
Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2026 13:16:20 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407031630.2457081-9-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260407031630.2457081-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
Currently conf_ports_range_except() deduces the protocol to use from the
option name. This is correct, but a DRY violation, since we check the
option name at several points in the callchain.
Instead pass the protocol explicitly to conf_ports_range_except() and
conf_ports_spec(), computing it from the option name in conf_ports(). This
is redundant for now, but means the optname and optarg parameters to the
lower-level functions are used only for debugging output and will be
removable in future.
