When for example a /60 is assigned to a network the last 4 bits of the

did earlier today resulting in spending some time understanding the

Patch applied with some minor tweaks
(https://git.openwrt.org/?p=project/netifd.git;a=commit;h=e45b1408284c05984b38a910a1f0a07d6c761397);
The updated warning message is fine.
I added your SoB as this was missing in the patch
I wonder what the significance of the SoB is given that a) it's not
documented (at least in the netifd sources) and b) it seems to be ok to
"fake" someone else's SoB and c) there are several commits in the newer
history of netifd that don't have a SoB of either Author or Committer
(or both).
For details why a SoB is required; see
https://openwrt.org/submitting-patches#sign_your_work.
If there're any commits in the netifd repo which don't have a SoB this
must rather stay an exception than becoming a general rule.
ok, so you claim my SoB means that *I* confirmed that my change is
compatible to the netifd's license. I didn't do that though.
Even if it was me who added that line I doubt is has any relevance for
netifd because nothing in the netifd sources explains what an SoB means.
And the link you sent applies only to patches for openwrt, not netifd.
(Also if this is the only place for openwrt where the significance of an
SoB is described I wonder if this is relevant given that from the POV of
openwrt.git the wiki is an external resource that can be modified by
anyone. What if someone removes item (d) from the wiki or introduces an
(e)?)
The wiki is not a third party project, the stuff written in the
submission rules was decided by or written by core OpenWrt developers.
Any change to wiki pages is reviewed and if it is wrong it is reverted
by me or tmomas (wiki admins).
That said, I thought netifd is a daemon created by OpenWrt project so
the submission rules should still apply.
