Subject: modprobe_path & hotplug_path
Date: Sat, 22 May 2004 15:05:28 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040522150054.R26485-100000@attu1.cs.washington.edu> (raw)

Hi,

Just wanted to inquire about something curious that I saw in the kernel 
subtree...

Currently modprobe_path and hotplug_path are declared as "char ...[256]", 
though it seems to me (unless I've missed something), that they only ever 
hold "/sbin/modprobe" and "/sbin/hotplug", respectively. Any reason why we 
couldn't simply declare them "char ...[]", and let them be sized 
appropriately?

Let me know if I've missed something.

Thanks,
Vadim Lobanov
