Subject: [PATCH 1/4] drivers/net/enic: decrement sizeof size in strncmp
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 08:48:37 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0911120848100.16627@ask.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
As observed by Joe Perches, sizeof of a constant string includes the
trailing 0. If what is wanted is to check the initial characters of
another string, this trailing 0 should not be taken into account. If an
exact match is wanted, strcmp should be used instead.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
expression foo;
constant char *abc;
@@
strncmp(foo, abc,
- sizeof(abc)
+ sizeof(abc)-1
)
// </smpl>
