same_ssid

Description:

public bool same_ssid (uint8[] ssid1, uint8[] ssid2, bool ignore_trailing_null)

Earlier versions of the Linux kernel added a NULL byte to the end of the SSID to enable easy printing of the SSID on the console or in a terminal, but this behavior was problematic (SSIDs are simply byte arrays, not strings) and thus was changed.

This function compensates for that behavior at the cost of some compatibility with odd SSIDs that may legitimately have trailing NULLs, even though that is functionally pointless.

Parameters:

ssid1	the first SSID to compare
ssid2	the second SSID to compare
ignore_trailing_null	true to ignore one trailing NULL byte
len1	length of the SSID data in `ssid1`
len2	length of the SSID data in `ssid2`

Returns:

true if the SSIDs are the same, false if they are not
