[PATCH v3 0/7] scsi: replace deprecated strncpy

From: Justin Stitt
Date: Tue Mar 05 2024 - 18:34:58 EST


This series contains multiple replacements of strncpy throughout the
scsi subsystem.

strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces. The details of each replacement will be in their respective
patch.
