[PATCH v3 0/3] kernfs: Convert from strlcpy() to strscpy()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

One of the last users of strlcpy() is kernfs, which has some complex
calling hierarchies that needed to be carefully examined. This series
refactors the strlcpy() calls into strscpy() calls, and bubbles up all
changes in return value checking for callers. Future work in kernfs and
sysfs will see the replacement of open-coded string handling with the
seq_buf API, but we need to do one thing at a time.

Thanks!
