You are right. strnchr()'s result can not be used as is. I was a bit
careless when writing my response.

But I still think it is possible to do pointer arithmetic.

len = strnchr(elm->rxbuf, elm->rxfill, '\r') - elm->rxbuf;
(I let you check that I did not do an off by one mistake).

The above should also work with memchr(). Although the C standard
doesn't allow pointer arithmetic on void *, GNU C adds an extension
for that: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Pointer-Arith.html

As I said before, your for loop is not fundamentally wrong, this is
just not my prefered approach. You have my suggestion, choose what you
prefer.
