From 8046da444df5fc35ed12b6b52c090dc89c8a5f96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin Stitt Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2023 23:10:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (asus_wmi_sensors) Replace deprecated strncpy() with strscpy() `strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. We should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. If, for any reason, NUL-padding is needed let's opt for `strscpy_pad`.
