I think you're trying to get the first element of the array here: why
not just `p8_events = p8_events_arr[0];`?
Yes. Will change it.

You've just saved strlen(start), you could just use len. This also
applies in the next case below.
Yes. That is true.

The strnlen will never be greater than pp->length, so the only case this
will hit is if strnlen(pp->value, pp->length) == pp->length. This also
applies again below.

True will change it.

This is the only case where you actually use the orignal version of len.
This makes me think you could drop the variable entirely and just use
strlen(start) in all cases. I also don't see where `end` is used
anywhere in this function: could that be dropped?
Correct. I guess we can drop both len and end. I used "end" for my prints during debug.

I'm not sure if this is my mailer, but it looks like lines 2 and 3 of
that comment need to be indented to line up under the * in the first
line.
No, it is not your mail :). Will fix the indentation.

As the changed comment indicates, this function changes the behaviour of
nest_ima_detect_parse. Given that it's a new function introduced by this
patch series, maybe it should also change names.

Ok will fix it.
Thanks for the review.
