Subject: [Bug 104221] New: strxfrm: not equivalent to strncpy
Date: Tue, 08 Sep 2015 21:08:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-104221-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104221

            Bug ID: 104221
           Summary: strxfrm: not equivalent to strncpy
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
          Reporter: fweimer-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org
        Regression: No

Version 3.81 says this:

“In the POSIX or C locales strxfrm() is equivalent to copying the string with
strncpy(3).”

This is a bit misleading because the behavior on truncation is unspecified for
strxfrm.
