From d228bee8201a7ea77c414f1298b2f572f42c6113 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Thompson Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2020 09:57:24 +0000 Subject: kdb: Eliminate strncpy() warnings by replacing with strscpy() Currently the code to manage the kdb history buffer uses strncpy() to copy strings to/and from the history and exhibits the classic "but nobody ever told me that strncpy() doesn't always terminate strings" bug. Modern gcc compilers recognise this bug and issue a warning. In reality these calls will only abridge the copied string if kdb_read() has *already* overflowed the command buffer. Thus the use of counted copies here is only used to reduce the secondary effects of a bug elsewhere in the code. Therefore transitioning these calls into strscpy() (without checking the return code) is appropriate.
