packet_read() does NUL-terminate for you. It gets the extra bytes because it doesn't store the 4-byte size in the output (whereas the client does not ever send anything over LARGE_PACKET_MAX, _including_ those bytes, so we always have room to store its result in our LARGE_PACKET_MAX buffer, plus the NUL, with 3 bytes to spare). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
