[fedfs-utils] [PATCH 5/7] libjunction: Don't treat opaque byte array as NUL-terminated

Chuck Lever chuck.lever at oracle.com
Wed Jan 4 13:06:57 PST 2012


junction_get_xattr() returns an opaque byte array, but
junction_restore_mode() treats it like a NUL-terminated string.
Bad function, no biscuit.

Fork off a second API that can return a NUL-terminated string.
Callers will have to take care to choose the correct API.

Introduced in commit 0520ee72: "Initial commit," (March 29, 2011).
