Actually, I've had a look at the Linux and Windows documentation, and sir_name is NUL-terminated. I've also had a look at the kernel source, and it treats sir_name as NUL-terminated, so it should be safe. Here's a new patch, with a couple new constants, documentation update and some - really basic - tests. I guess Gregory is right, and we could push this as-is, and wait until some users is interested in improving the support and tests. ---------- keywords: +needs review _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1522400> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
