Also related to this I find that the HWSIM_ATTR_RADIO_NAME attributes emitted contain the name string and are exactly of the right length while the HWSIM_ATTR_RADIO_NAME attributes received by the kernel are assumed to be NUL-terminated. Is there a guarantee that a 0-byte follows an attribute, or should this be changed for consistency? Best regards
