Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] netfilter: uapi: Use UAPI definition of INT_MAX and INT_MIN
Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2026 08:44:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260113-uapi-limits-v2-3-93c20f4b2c1a@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260113-uapi-limits-v2-0-93c20f4b2c1a@linutronix.de>
Using <limits.h> to gain access to INT_MAX and INT_MIN introduces a
dependency on a libc, which UAPI headers should not do.
Use the equivalent UAPI constants.
