Subject: [PATCH] soc: fsl: qe: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy
Date: Tue, 23 May 2023 02:14:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230523021425.2406309-1-azeemshaikh38@gmail.com> (raw)

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.
