__NLA_IS_BEINT_TYPE(tp) isn't useful. NLA_BE16/32 are identical to NLA_U16/32, the only difference is that it tells the netlink validation functions that byteorder conversion might be needed before comparing the value to the policy min/max ones. After this change all policy macros that can be used with UINT types, such as NLA_POLICY_MASK() can also be used with NLA_BE16/32. This will be used to validate nf_tables flag attributes which are in bigendian byte order. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
