iproute has an utility function which checks if a string is a prefix for
another one, to allow use of abbreviated commands, e.g. 'addr' or 'a'
instead of 'address'.
This routine unfortunately considers an empty string as prefix
of any pattern, leading to undefined behaviour when an empty
argument is passed to ip:
# ip ''
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
# tc ''
qdisc noqueue 0: dev lo root refcnt 2
# ip address add 192.0.2.0/24 '' 198.51.100.1 dev dummy0
# ip addr show dev dummy0
6: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 02:9d:5e:e9:3f:c0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.0.2.0/24 brd 198.51.100.1 scope global dummy0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Rewrite matches() so it takes care of an empty input, and doesn't
scan the input strings three times: the actual implementation
does 2 strlen and a memcpy to accomplish the same task.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm
arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
2. make
The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
are in your path.
4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
