NAME
       strnlen - determine the length of a fixed-size string

SYNOPSIS
       #include <string.h>

       size_t strnlen(const char *s, size_t maxlen);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       strnlen():
	   Since glibc 2.10:
	       _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
	   Before glibc 2.10:
	       _GNU_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       The  strnlen()  function returns the number of characters in the string pointed to by s, excluding the terminating null byte (''), but at
       most maxlen.  In doing this, strnlen() looks only at the first maxlen characters in the string pointed to by s and never beyond s+maxlen.

RETURN VALUE
       The strnlen() function returns strlen(s), if that is less than maxlen, or maxlen if there is no null terminating  ('')  among	the  first
       maxlen characters pointed to by s.
