Subject: [PATCH] staging: most: core: replace strcpy() by strscpy()
Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2019 10:40:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190422154038.GA27411@embeddedor> (raw)
The strcpy() function is being deprecated. Replace it by the safer
strscpy() and fix the following Coverity warning:
"You might overrun the 80-character fixed-size string iface->p->name
by copying iface->description without checking the length."
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1444760 ("Copy into fixed size buffer")
Fixes: 131ac62253db ("staging: most: core: use device description as name")
