[PATCH] brcmfmac: use strlcpy() instead of strcpy()

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

 



From: Neo Jou <neojou@xxxxxxxxx>

The function strcpy() is inherently not safe. Though the function
works without problems here, it would be better to use other safer
function, e.g. strlcpy(), to replace strcpy() still.
