From 04804b471056ecef693e08ba8884c83573d76ff8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hou Tao Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2021 22:16:49 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] bpf: Add bpf_strncmp helper The helper compares two strings: one string is a null-terminated read-only string, and another string has const max storage size but doesn't need to be null-terminated. It can be used to compare file name in tracing or LSM program.
