This is more easy on the user, as (I would assume) people keep more bits than zeroing, so, an example: Action: Set bit 0x01. before (&): iptables -j TOS --set-tos 0x01/0xFE after (&~): iptables -j TOS --set-tos 0x01/0x01 This is not too "tragic" with xt_TOS, but where larger fields are used (e.g. proposed xt_MARK v2), `--set-xmar 0x01/0x01` vs. `--set-xmark 0x01/0xFFFFFFFE` really makes a difference. Other target(!) modules, such as xt_TPROXY also use &~ rather than &, so let's get to a common ground. (Since xt_TOS has not yet left the development tree en direction to mainline, the semantic can be changed as proposed without breaking iptables.)
