From 2c16db6c92b0ee4aa61e88366df82169e83c3f7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Maciej=20=C5=BBenczykowski?= Date: Wed, 5 May 2021 09:58:31 -0700 Subject: net: fix nla_strcmp to handle more then one trailing null character Android userspace has been using TCA_KIND with a char[IFNAMESIZ] many-null-terminated buffer containing the string 'bpf'. This works on 4.19 and ceases to work on 5.10. I'm not entirely sure what fixes tag to use, but I think the issue was likely introduced in the below mentioned 5.4 commit.
