net: netcp: 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. Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. Other implementations of .*get_drvinfo also use strscpy so this patch brings keystone_get_drvinfo() in line as well: igb/igb_ethtool.c +851 static void igb_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, igbvf/ethtool.c 167:static void igbvf_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, i40e/i40e_ethtool.c 1999:static void i40e_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, e1000/e1000_ethtool.c 529:static void e1000_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, ixgbevf/ethtool.c 211:static void ixgbevf_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *netdev, Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strncpy-on-nul-terminated-strings [1] Link: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/linux-manual-4.8/strscpy.9.en.html [2] Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/90Signed-off-by: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231012-strncpy-drivers-net-ethernet-ti-netcp_ethss-c-v1-1-93142e620864@google.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
