From 27d50646d0815f02677ff870a5691f36be67c08f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin Stitt Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2024 23:46:33 +0000 Subject: fbdev: au1200fb: 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. Let's use the new 2-argument strscpy() which guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer while also simplifying the syntax. Note that strscpy() will not NUL-pad the destination buffer like strncpy() does. However, the NUL-padding behavior of strncpy() is not required since fbdev is already NUL-allocated from au1200fb_drv_probe() -> frameuffer_alloc(), rendering any additional NUL-padding redundant. | p = kzalloc(fb_info_size + size, GFP_KERNEL); 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/90 Cc: linux-hardening@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Justin Stitt Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Helge Deller --- drivers/video/fbdev/au1200fb.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'drivers/video') diff --git a/drivers/video/fbdev/au1200fb.c b/drivers/video/fbdev/au1200fb.c index 6f20efc663d7..e718fea63662 100644 --- a/drivers/video/fbdev/au1200fb.c +++ b/drivers/video/fbdev/au1200fb.c @@ -1557,7 +1557,7 @@ static int au1200fb_init_fbinfo(struct au1200fb_device *fbdev) return ret; } - strncpy(fbi->fix.id, "AU1200", sizeof(fbi->fix.id)); + strscpy(fbi->fix.id, "AU1200"); fbi->fix.smem_start = fbdev->fb_phys; fbi->fix.smem_len = fbdev->fb_len; fbi->fix.type = FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS; -- cgit v1.2.3
