Subject: [iproute PATCH v4 6/6] lib/ll_map: Choose size of new cache items at run-time
Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2017 11:51:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170824095150.5469-7-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170824095150.5469-1-phil@nwl.cc>
Instead of having a fixed buffer of 16 bytes for the interface name,
tailor size of new ll_cache entry using the interface name's actual
length. This also makes sure the following call to strcpy() is safe.
