Interestingly, many (all?) of the changes in that patch are wrong
because they don't try to match the terminating '\0'. As a result,
they will match against extensions of the target string as well as the
target string itself.
strNcmp compare N bytes - http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.5/lib/string.c#L270
memcmp compare N bytes - http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.5/lib/string.c#L651
Yes. So if s contains "abcde" then
memcmp(s, "abc", 3) and strncmp(s, "abc", 3) will both return 0, and
memcmp(s, "abc", 4) and strncmp(s, "abc", 4) will both return 1.
No matter what is contained in *s, "abcde" or "abcxxx",
are important first N bytes. The second example, you see,
a little bit stupid, and devoid of logic. :)
