Looking at inet_parse() it cannot be used as-is. The question then becomes: Will refactoring it buy enough?

Thanks, just wanted to be sure.
The syntax it supports is not the same as what's needed for host forwarding.
inet_parse: address:port,option1,option2 (where options are to=,ipv4,etc).
hostfwd: address:port-address:port
If we wanted to have a utility that parsed "address:port" for v4+v6 then
we'd have to split the "address:port" part out of inet_parse.
Plus the way inet_parse() parses the address, which is fine for its
purposes, is with sscanf.
Alas the terminating character is not the same (',' vs '-').
IWBN to retain passing sscanf a constant format string so that the compiler
can catch various errors,
and if one keeps that then any kind of refactor loses some appeal.
[Though one could require all callers to accept either ',' or '-' as the
delimiter.]

I think the key useful part to keep common impl for is the handling
of the [] brackets for IPv6 raw addrs. I'd suggest we try to pull the
"address:port" part out into a new inet_addr_parse() helper that can be
called from inet_pase and from slirp.
inet_parse() can split on the first ",", and then call inet_addr_parse
on the first segment.
slirp can split on "-", and call inet_addr_parse with both segments.
Regards,
Daniel
