> Subject: [PATCH v2] ether: fix invalid string length in ethdev name comparison
> 
> The current code compares two strings upto the length of 1st string
> (searched name). If the 1st string is prefix of 2nd string (existing name),
> the string comparison returns the port_id of earliest prefix matches.
> This patch fixes the bug by using strcmp instead of strncmp.

> Fixes: 9c5b8d8b9fe ("ethdev: clean port id retrieval when attaching")
