ipv4: accept u8 in IP_TOS ancillary data
In commit f02db315 ("ipv4: IP_TOS and IP_TTL can be specified as ancillary data") Francesco added IP_TOS values specified as integer. However, kernel sends to userspace (at recvmsg() time) an IP_TOS value in a single byte, when IP_RECVTOS is set on the socket. It can be very useful to reflect all ancillary options as given by the kernel in a subsequent sendmsg(), instead of aborting the sendmsg() with EINVAL after Francesco patch. So this patch extends IP_TOS ancillary to accept an u8, so that an UDP server can simply reuse same ancillary block without having to mangle it. Jesper can then augment https://github.com/netoptimizer/network-testing/blob/master/src/udp_example02.c to add TOS reflection ;) Fixes: f02db315 ("ipv4: IP_TOS and IP_TTL can be specified as ancillary data") Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Francesco Fusco <ffusco@redhat.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Acked-by: NJesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
