bpf: Replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy
strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. bpf sym names get looked up and compared/cleaned with various string apis. This suggests they need to be NUL-terminated (strncpy() suggests this but does not guarantee it). | static int compare_symbol_name(const char *name, char *namebuf) | { | cleanup_symbol_name(namebuf); | return strcmp(name, namebuf); | } | static void cleanup_symbol_name(char *s) | { | ... | res = strstr(s, ".llvm."); | ... | } Use strscpy() as this method guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer. This patch also replaces two uses of strncpy() used in log.c. These are simple replacements as postfix has been zero-initialized on the stack and has source arguments with a size less than the destination's size. Note that this patch uses the new 2-argument version of strscpy introduced in commit e6584c39 ("string: Allow 2-argument strscpy()").
