[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1] examples/vm_power: fix strcpy buffer overrun

[David Hunt]

replace strcpy with rte_strlcpy to prevent buffer overrun
With fix, attempting to use a VERY lonng vm name results in a nicely
truncated 32 character name rather than a segfault:
Setting VM Name to [sdfdsfsfsdffdsdsasdsadasdakjshd]

You can just use "strlcpy" without the "rte_" prefix. The rte_ version is
just a fallback used when a standard strlcpy - either natively or from
libbsd - is unavailable.

When in doubt about formatting, please check the git history.
You will find that the recent title prefix in use was "examples/power".

Please replace the 2 other occurences of rte_strlcpy in this example
(can be in the same patch with a small comment in the commit log).

With fix, attempting to use a VERY lonng vm name results in a nicely

Using strlcpy rather than rte_strlcpy, as the rte_ version is only a

As well as the fix in main.c, this patch also changes an occurrence of
rte_strlcpy in channel_manager.c and channel_monitor.c to strlcpy.
