[PATCH v2 0/3] Improve string_copying(7)

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

 



Hi,

v3:

-  Patches 1/3 and 2/3 are identical to v2, except that I CCd libbsd's
   maintainer (Guillem) in 2/3 so he's aware that we're documenting BUGS
   for strlcpy(3).  Since the strlcpy(3bsd) manual page is part of
   libbsd, it may be interesting to also add a BUGS section in that
   page.

-  Add 3/3, which adds strtcpy(3), a function almost identical to
   strscpy(9), and very similar to strlcpy(3), which doesn't share its
   bugs.

Cheers,
Alex
