Why not changing the definition itself to uint16_t and verifying each
occurence of ip_off and ip_len ?
Indeed, why not. This is the solution adopted by Apple's OpenDarwin
(another BSD derivative). The attached patch changes the signed
definitions to unsigned.
I tried to verify by inspecting each occurrence of ip_off and ip_len;
in cases where the values are implicitly converted, the unsigned short
is converted to a signed int, which should be OK assuming 32-bit ints.
Does qemu support any platforms with 16-bit ints?
I also ran some tests (on i386 Linux) to ensure that slirp still works
as expected, and also handles packets > 32KB. Of course, more testing
on other platforms would be welcome.
