I don't think you need to write a novel. So the basic issue is that you're not sure if you can replace strncpy with strlcpy (due to not knowing what the padding requirements are), but you still want to make sure everything is zero terminated. That should have been in the changelog. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
