Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella Oct. 27, 2020, 2:35 p.m. UTC
It uses both a fixed internal buffer with PATH_MAX size to read and
copy the results of the readlink call.

Also, if PATH_MAX is not defined it uses a default value of 1024
as for other stdlib implementations.

The expected stack usage is about 8k on Linux where PATH_MAX is
define as 4096 (plus some internal function usage for local
variable).

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
