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 expect fw_version strings to be NUL-terminated based on other similar assignments: wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/main.c 7867: snprintf(wlc->wiphy->fw_version, 7868: sizeof(wlc->wiphy->fw_version), "%u.%u", rev, patch); wireless/broadcom/b43legacy/main.c 1765: snprintf(wiphy->fw_version, sizeof(wiphy->fw_version), "%u.%u", wireless/broadcom/b43/main.c 2730: snprintf(wiphy->fw_version, sizeof(wiphy->fw_version), "%u.%u", wireless/intel/iwlwifi/dvm/main.c 1465: snprintf(priv->hw->wiphy->fw_version, 1466: sizeof(priv->hw->wiphy->fw_version), wireless/intel/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c 5905: snprintf(info->fw_version, sizeof(info->fw_version), "%s:%d:%s", Based on this, NUL-padding is not required. A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
