From 2e73e44502fd12735061584a52da36f00d81575d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2010 15:54:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net/9p: Mount only matching virtio channels p9_virtio_create will only compare the the channel's tag characters against the device name till the end of the channel's tag but not till the end of the device name. This means that if a user defines channels with the tags foo and foobar then he would mount foo when he requested foonot and may mount foo when he requested foobar. Thus it is necessary to check both string lengths against each other in case of a successful partial string match. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann Signed-off-by: David S.
