[PATCH 2/3] Documentation: freefall: simplify pathnames

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From:	Pavel Machek <pavel@xxxxxx>

Copying to local variable is actually not neccessary, if all we need
to do is snprintf(). This also removes problem where devname could be
missing zero termination.
