Subject: [PATCH 00/17] drivers: replace strncpy with strlcpy
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 17:51:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623165150.765443-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)

Many uses of strncpy in DPDK drivers can be directly replaced by
a call to strlcpy instead, which is safer in that it always null-
terminates the string. This AI assisted patchset makes those
simple replacements, adjusting lengths as appropriate.

After this set, there are still a number of drivers with strncpy calls
in them, but those are not simple strncpy->strlcpy replacements, so
left for later rework.
