Subject: [libnftnl PATCH v3] utils: fix arp family number
Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2014 13:52:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141020115049.27980.35459.stgit@nfdev.cica.es> (raw)

NFPROTO_ARP = 3 in kernel space.

We need the same value here in userspace in order to correctly communicate
with the kernel.

The failure solved by this patch made that {XML|JSON}-parsed tables of ARP
family unable to be directly injected into kernel.

To prevent future errors, this patch changes raw and AF_* values by the mathing
NFPROTO_* couterpart as seen in linux/netfilter.h in both functions:
 * nft_family2str()
 * nft_str2family()

Signed-off-by: Arturo Borrero Gonzalez <arturo.borrero.glez@gmail.com>
---
v2: rework+fix using the array-matching approach suggested by Pablo.
v3: constify both the pointer and the data, suggested by Jan.
    Keep setting errno to EAFNOSUPPORT in nft_str2family().
