Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: Replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2025 12:44:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251126114419.92539-1-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking
on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace
it with the safer strscpy(). No functional changes.
Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strcpy [1]
