Subject: [PATCH 1/7] ALSA: ump: replace strlcat() with strscpy()
Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2026 11:41:33 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260807114139.1661-2-mahad.ibrahim.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260807114139.1661-1-mahad.ibrahim.dev@gmail.com>
When several function blocks map to the same group, their names are
joined with ", " and the separator was appended with strlcat().
Take the current length of group->name with strlen() and write the
separator at that offset with strscpy(), passing the space that is
left in the buffer.
group->name is NUL-terminated within its array, so the offset is
always less than the array size and at least one byte remains for
strscpy() to work with. Both functions stop at the end of the buffer,
so the string that comes out is the same.
