From a8f77c1f66bdc9fc10539f9cee6c1231856bbd86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ed Schouten Date: Sat, 11 Feb 2012 11:11:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Set read buffer size to multiple of sizeof(struct futx). If the utmpx database gets updated while an application is reading it, there is a chance the reading application processes partially overwritten entries. To solve this, make sure we always read a multiple of sizeof(struct futx) at a time.
