[PATCH v4 2/3] drivers/soc/renesas: Prefer memcpy over strcpy

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

 



strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer. This
could result in linear overflows beyond the end of the buffer, leading
to all kinds of misbehaviors. So, use memcpy() as a safe replacement.

This is a previous step in the path to remove the strcpy() function
entirely from the kernel.
