SubjectRe: [PATCH] scsi: qla4xxx: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy
From
Date

Azeem,

> strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed
> the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to
> linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In
> an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here
> with strscpy(). No return values were used, so direct replacement is
> safe.

Applied to 6.5/scsi-staging, thanks!
