Ensure the copied strings are NUL terminated. Signed-off-by: Roel Kluin <roel.kluin@xxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/accounting/getdelays.c | 2 +- Documentation/hwmon/hpfall.c | 2 +- Documentation/networking/radiotap-headers.txt | 2 +- .../networking/timestamping/timestamping.c | 4 ++-- 4 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) Rationale (please correct me if I'm wrong): For a larger source string, strncpy only NUL terminates when the size argument is _less_ than sizeof(destination string). strlcpy does this when it equals sizeof (dest), but does not overwrite NULs in the higher chars. Because cpumask is global I used strncpy, for the extra NULs. devname is local so I think strlcpy can be used. For {device,hwtstamp}.ifr_name I thought the strlcpy could be used since ifr_name is zeroed upon creation of device and hwtstamp. Oh, and the parenthesis in radiotap-headers.txt should not be there.
