Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/dns_resolver: clean up and simplify dns_query()
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 22:38:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316213846.1049655-3-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
Fold the name length checks into a single early check, and use
kmemdup_nul() for name-only descriptions and snprintf() for
"<type>:<name>" descriptions to simplify dns_query().
Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>

Compile-tested only.
