Subject: ring name length simplification in
ipsec_mb_qp_create_processed_ops_ring
I was looking at places in DPDK that are using rte_strlcpy which should be
using strlcpy
directly instead. Looking at this code in ipsec_mb, the use of strlcpy is
actually
not needed at all.
/** Create a ring to place processed operations on */
static struct rte_ring
*ipsec_mb_qp_create_processed_ops_ring(
struct ipsec_mb_qp *qp, unsigned int ring_size, int socket_id)
{
struct rte_ring *r;
char ring_name[RTE_CRYPTODEV_NAME_MAX_LEN];
unsigned int n = rte_strlcpy(ring_name, qp->name, sizeof(ring_name));
if (n >= sizeof(ring_name))
return NULL;
r = rte_ring_lookup(ring_name);
1. The maximum length name allowed for rte_ring is 30 characters which comes
from
RTE_MEMZONE_NAMESIZE- sizeof(RTE_RING_MZ_PREFIX) + 1 = 32 - 3 + 1 = 30
2. RTE_CRYPTODEV_NAME_MAX_LEN is 64, qp->name is in struct ipsec_mb_qp is
always the same size.
3. Ring create already does a copy of name, so making a copy here is not needed.
Therefore copying the name is not going to ever catch any errors. And if
qp->name is
too long it won't fail until ring_create().
Would be better to just do something simpler like:
