`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We see that netdev->name is expected to be NUL-terminated based on its usage with format strings: | sprintf(q_vector->name, "%s-TxRx-%u", netdev->name, | q_vector->rx.ring->queue_index); Furthermore, NUL-padding is not required as netdev is already zero-allocated: | netdev = alloc_etherdev_mq(sizeof(struct igb_adapter), | IGB_MAX_TX_QUEUES); ... alloc_etherdev_mq() -> alloc_etherdev_mqs() -> alloc_netdev_mqs() ... | p = kvzalloc(alloc_size, GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL); Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
