Subject: [PATCH] mesh: don't incorrectly use const
Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2026 11:45:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aYh28AFauAnhkzee@c1ec8b16bbaa> (raw)
*name is used by strchr and subsequently modified replacing "="
with '\0'. Remove incorrect and unnecessary const. Passed in argv[]
is editable, and is being modified in the function.
Fixes:
mesh.c: In function 'set_interface_meshparam':
mesh.c:327:23: warning: assignment discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
327 | value = strchr(name, '=');
| ^
