-Subject: [PATCH] configure: check for strlcat & strlcpy
-
-Building tvheadend with uclibc and musl fails:
-
-src/tvh_string.h:50:22: error: static declaration of 'strlcpy' follows non-static declaration
- static inline size_t strlcpy(char *dst, const char *src, size_t size)
-
-src/tvh_string.h:61:22: error: static declaration of 'strlcat' follows non-static declaration
- static inline size_t strlcat(char *dst, const char *src, size_t count)
-
-because they provide strlcat & strlcpy:
-https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/strlcpy
-
-This patch adds configure checks and makes the implementation in
-tvh_string.h optional, the configure log looks like this:
-
-glibc
-  checking for cc strlcat ...                       fail
-  checking for cc strlcpy ...                       fail
-
-musl
-  checking for cc strlcat ...                       ok
-  checking for cc strlcpy ...                       ok
-
-uclibc
-  checking for cc strlcat ...                       ok
-  checking for cc strlcpy ...                       ok
