Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] net, treewide: define and use MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN
Date: Wed, 05 Feb 2025 22:21:30 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250205-netconsole-v3-1-132a31f17199@purestorage.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250205-netconsole-v3-0-132a31f17199@purestorage.com>
There are a few places in the tree which compute the length of the
string representation of a MAC address as 3 * ETH_ALEN - 1. Define a
constant for this and use it where relevant. No functionality changes
are expected.
