Subject: [PATCH v3 3/6] dhcp: Add option type table and value parser
Date: Mon,  1 Jun 2026 13:07:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260601073758.1571317-4-anskuma@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260601073758.1571317-1-anskuma@redhat.com>

Add an RFC 2132 type lookup table mapping DHCP option codes to their
expected value formats, and a dhcp_opt_parse() function that converts
CLI string values into their binary wire representation.

Wire dhcp_opt_parse() into dhcp_add_option() so that values are
validated and encoded at configuration time.

v3:
  - Replaced DHCP_OPT_INTEGER with separate DHCP_OPT_INT8/INT16/INT32
    enums, removed dhcp_opt_int_width[] array.
  - Shared logic between DHCP_OPT_IPV4 and DHCP_OPT_IPV4_LIST — parse
    both as list, error if >1 in single case.
  - Added errno = 0 before strtoul() and check after.
  - Fixed range check: 1ULL << (width * 8) for all widths including
    width==4.
  - strncpy → memcpy for DHCP_OPT_STR.
  - Moved enum to dhcp.c since not used in other files.
  - Removed options 55, 61 (client-only), 119 (DNS compression, use
    --dhcp-search instead), 33 (IP pairs not supported).
  - DHCP_OPT_PARSE_BUF 1024 → char tmp[256].
  - Upgraded dhcp_add_option() to call dhcp_opt_parse() and populate
    val[]/len.
  - Aligned array entries for readability.
  - Added tab after @DHCP_OPT_IPV4_LIST: in kerneldoc.
  - Reject empty value strings before parsing
  - Reject leading/trailing/consecutive commas in IP list values.

v2:
  - Replaced struct lookup table + dhcp_opt_type_lookup() function with flat dhcp_opt_types[256] array indexed by code.
  - Consolidated DHCP_OPT_UINT8/UINT16/UINT32 into single DHCP_OPT_INTEGER with dhcp_opt_int_width[256] table.
  - Dropped DHCP_OPT_ROUTES / option 121 entirely.
  - Added kerneldoc for enum dhcp_opt_type values.
  - Removed curly braces from switch cases, declarations before switch.
  - Added newlines before return statements.
  - Changed IP list delimiter from space to comma (--dhcp-opt 6,1.1.1.1,8.8.8.8).
  - Defined DHCP_OPT_PARSE_BUF constant for bare 1024.
  - Added len and val[255] fields to struct here (moved from patch 1).
  - Added kerneldoc for @custom_opts.len and @custom_opts.val.
  - Wired dhcp_opt_parse() into case 32 (--dhcp-boot) to populate val/len.
