[PATCH 1/2] Monitor: use devname as char array instead of pointer

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

 



Device name wasn't filled properly due to incorrect use of strcpy.
Strcpy was used twice. Firstly to fill devname with "/dev/md/"
and then to add chosen name. First strcpy result was overwritten by
second one (as a result <device_name> instead of "/dev/md/<device_name>"
was assigned). This commit changes this implementation to use snprintf
and devname with fixed size.
