Subject: [rtla 06/13] rtla: Use strncmp_static() in more places
Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2025 15:41:13 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251117184409.42831-7-wander@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251117184409.42831-1-wander@redhat.com>
The recently introduced strncmp_static() helper provides a safer way
to compare strings with static strings by determining the length at
compile time.
Replace several open-coded strncmp() calls with strncmp_static() to
improve code readability and robustness. This change affects the
parsing of command-line arguments and environment variables.
