Even though this is a very minor and clean change I don't like this approach. We're again implicitly assume something. IMHO much better approach would be to include a compile test for small source that uses scanf() with "%as"/"%ms". That way we may remove all dependencies on either GLIBC/UCLIBC/MUSL etc. -Alexey _______________________________________________ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
