hostname: do not use gethostbyname() for "hostname -s"
There's no reason to call gethostbyname() on the value returned by uname() when asked just for a short name of a host. This may also be wrong, when uname is set to one value, but in /etc/hosts (or elsewhere) the "canonical" name is different. This is often the case for localhost entry in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost myname With this content of /etc/hosts, and uname being set to myname, busybox hostname -s will return localhost, while regular hostname utility returns myname. Fix this by not calling gethostbyname() for the simple 'hostname -s' use. Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>
