Subject: [Bridge] [PATCH] bridge: netfilter: using strlcpy() instead of strncpy()
Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 16:07:22 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5195E53A.4060406@asianux.com> (raw)
'name' has already set all zero when it is defined, so not need let
strncpy() to pad it again.
'name' is a string, better always let is NUL terminated, so use
strlcpy() instead of strncpy().
