From fa7726a4d9b91e0a8fb6fbbd819cd20f116f6c21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin Stitt Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2023 03:51:04 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] i3c: replace deprecated strncpy `strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. We should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We expect adap->name to be NUL-terminated based on i2c_adapter name use: | dev_dbg(&adap->dev, "adapter [%s] registered\n", adap->name); NUL-padding does not seem to be required as `master` is zero-allocated and `i3c_master_to_i2c_adapter` simply returns a field from within `master`: | master = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*master), GFP_KERNEL); ... | struct i2c_adapter *adap = i3c_master_to_i2c_adapter(master); ... | static struct i2c_adapter * | i3c_master_to_i2c_adapter(struct i3c_master_controller *master) | { | return &master->i2c; | } This means that `adap->name` should already be filled with NUL-bytes. Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
