- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In string.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn memcmp "const void *b1" "const void *b2" "size_t len"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn memcmp
|
|
function
|
|
compares byte string
|
|
.Fa b1
|
|
against byte string
|
|
.Fa b2 .
|
|
Both strings are assumed to be
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn memcmp
|
|
function
|
|
returns zero if the two strings are identical,
|
|
otherwise returns the difference between the first two differing bytes
|
|
(treated as unsigned char values, so that
|
|
.Sq Li \e200
|
|
is greater than
|
|
.Sq Li \&\e0 ,
|
|
for example).
|
|
Zero-length strings are always identical.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Do not use
|
|
.Fn memcmp
|
|
to compare cryptographic secrets, because the time it takes varies
|
|
depending on how many bytes are the same, and thus leaks information
|
|
about the two strings by a timing side channel.
|
|
To compare secrets, hashes, message authentication codes, etc., use
|
|
.Xr consttime_memequal 3
|
|
instead.
