[PATCH] habanalabs/gaudi2: refactor deprecated strncpy

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

 



`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].

A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it
guarantees NUL-termination on its destination buffer argument which is
_not_ the case for `strncpy`!
