Coiby Xu 1ca1b71780 Implement IP netmask calculation to replace "ipcalc -m"
Recently, dracut-network drops depedency on dhcp-client which requires
ipcalc. Thus the dependency chain
"kexec-tools -> dracut-network -> dhcp-client -> ipcalc"
is broken. When NIC is configured to a static IP, kexec-tools depended
on "ipcalc -m" to get netmask. This commit implements the shell
equivalent of "ipcalc -m".

The following test code shows cal_netmask_by_prefix is consistent with
"ipcalc -m",

    #!/bin/bash
    . dracut-module-setup.sh

    for i in {0..128}; do
        mask_expected=$(ipcalc -m fe::/$i| cut -d"=" -f2)
        mask_actual=$(cal_netmask_by_prefix $i "-6")
        if [[ "$mask_expected" != "$mask_actual" ]]; then
            echo "prefix="$i, "expected="$mask_expected, "acutal="$mask_actual
            exit
        fi
    done

    echo "IPv6 tests passed"

    for i in {0..32}; do
        mask_expected=$(ipcalc -m 8.8.8.8/$i| cut -d"=" -f2)
        mask_actual=$(cal_netmask_by_prefix $i "")
        if [[ "$mask_expected" != "$mask_actual" ]]; then
            echo "prefix="$i, "expected="$mask_expected, "acutal="$mask_actual
            exit
        fi
    done

    echo "IPv4 tests passed"

    i=-2
    res=$(cal_netmask_by_prefix "$i" "")
    if [[ $? -ne 1 ]]; then
        echo "cal_netmask_by_prefix should exit when prefix<0"
        exit
    fi

    res=$(cal_netmask_by_prefix "$i" "")
    if [[ $? -ne 1 ]]; then
        echo "cal_netmask_by_prefix should exit when prefix<0"
        exit
    fi

    i=33
    $(cal_netmask_by_prefix $i "")
    if [[ $? -ne 1 ]]; then
        echo "cal_netmask_by_prefix should exit when prefix>32 for IPv4"
        exit
    fi

    i=129
    $(cal_netmask_by_prefix $i "-6")
    if [[ $? -ne 1 ]]; then
        echo "cal_netmask_by_prefix should exit when prefix>128 for IPv4"
        exit
    fi

    echo "Bad prefixes tests passed"

    echo "All tests passed"
