From 930345ea630405aa6e6f42efcb149c3f360a6b67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Benc Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2015 16:59:25 +0200 Subject: netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions to do that. For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is used to store IPv4 address.
