CID 93300 (#1 of 1): Copy into fixed size buffer (STRING_OVERFLOW)
4. fixed_size_dest: You might overrun the 16-character fixed-size string c->name
     by copying name without checking the length.
5. parameter_as_source: Note: This defect has an elevated risk because the
     source argument is a parameter of the current function.

Fix any possible overflows by using strncpy(). Zero fill the name buffer to
guarantee ASCII string NULL termination.

GCC is supposed to catch any problems here as you say in the commit message.

But to fix I suggest a single line change to strlcpy(c->name, name,
sizeof(c->name)) which always null terminates as bonus.

strscpy() is preferred over both strncpy() and strlcpy(). :)

BR,
Jani.


Good call. v2 on the way.

Probably same in i915_vma_coredump_create() which with strncpy would
have a theoretical chance of attempting to copy over a
non-null-terminated string.

Regards,

Tvrtko

   	c->vma = vma; /* reference held while active */
c->next = next;
