strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. Other implementations of .*get_drvinfo use strscpy so this patch brings lan78xx_get_drvinfo() in line as well: igb/igb_ethtool.c +851 static void igb_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, igbvf/ethtool.c 167:static void igbvf_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, i40e/i40e_ethtool.c 1999:static void i40e_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, e1000/e1000_ethtool.c 529:static void e1000_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, ixgbevf/ethtool.c 211:static void ixgbevf_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strncpy-on-nul-terminated-strings [1] Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/90 Signed-off-by: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231012-strncpy-drivers-net-usb-lan78xx-c-v1-1-99d513061dfc@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
