[PATCH v2 3/4] fs: unicode: Use strscpy() instead of strncpy()
From: Shreeya Patel
Date: Thu Mar 18 2021 - 09:34:50 EST
Following warning was reported by Kernel Test Robot.
In function 'utf8_parse_version',
inlined from 'utf8_load' at fs/unicode/utf8mod.c:195:7:
>> fs/unicode/utf8mod.c:175:2: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 12 equals
destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
175 | strncpy(version_string, version, sizeof(version_string));
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The -Wstringop-truncation warning highlights the unintended
uses of the strncpy function that truncate the terminating NULL
character from the source string.
Unlike strncpy(), strscpy() always null-terminates the destination string,
hence use strscpy() instead of strncpy().
