Subject: [PATCH 4/5] module/dups: Use strcmp() to compare module names
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 14:15:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720121621.750661-5-petr.pavlu@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260720121621.750661-1-petr.pavlu@suse.com>

Use strcmp() instead of strlen()+memcmp() to compare module names in
kmod_dup_request_lookup(), since all strings are NUL-terminated.
