[DTrace-devel] [PATCH v2] string: ensure string size is handled correctly

[Eugene Loh]

Typo:  s/strsuze/strsize/

For tracking purposes, should this patch be prefaced 5/5?

I think the .r files need to be updated for

test/unittest/codegen/tst.str_const_length.r
-         0: 61 62 63 64 65 00 abcde.
+         0: 61 62 63 64 00 abcd.

test/unittest/codegen/tst.str_data_size.r
-         0: 64 74 72 61 63 00 dtrac.
+         0: 64 74 72 61 00 dtra.

test/unittest/variables/tvar/tst.str-size.r
-abcdabcdabcd
+abcabcabc

Also, need to check test/unittest/funcs/strlen/tst.capped-sizw.d.
