`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We expect `spec->target_type` to be NUL-terminated based on its use with a format string after `dm_table_add_target()` is called | r = dm_table_add_target(table, spec->target_type, | (sector_t) spec->sector_start, | (sector_t) spec->length, | target_params); ... wherein `spec->target_type` is passed as parameter `type` and later printed with DMERR: | DMERR("%s: %s: unknown target type", dm_device_name(t->md), type); It appears that `spec` is not zero-allocated and thus NUL-padding may be required in this ioctl context. Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy_pad` due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination whilst maintaining the NUL-padding behavior that strncpy provides.
