[PATCH net-next] brcm80211: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()

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

 



From: Xu Panda <xu.panda@xxxxxxxxxx>

The implementation of strscpy() is more robust and safer.
That's now the recommended way to copy NUL-terminated strings.
