[PATCH net-next v5 11/11] tools: ynl: add ipv4-or-v6 display hint
Posted by Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen 2 weeks, 2 days ago
The attribute WGALLOWEDIP_A_IPADDR can contain either an IPv4
or an IPv6 address depending on WGALLOWEDIP_A_FAMILY, however
in practice it is enough to look at the attribute length.

This patch implements an ipv4-or-v6 display hint, that can
deal with this kind of attribute.

It only implements this display hint for genetlink-legacy, it
can be added to other protocol variants if needed, but we don't
want to encourage it's use.
