From 5b3cc7f9b39a02a981a89e42df12dcbc610bff3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Vesker Date: Fri, 25 May 2018 20:25:59 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: Fix incorrect raw command length parsing [ Upstream commit 603b7bcff824740500ddfa001d7a7168b0b38542 ] The NULL character was not set correctly for the string containing the command length, this caused failures reading the output of the command due to a random length. The fix is to initialize the output length string.
