Hi Linus, Please pull this strlcpy removal for v6.8-rc1. As promised, it is the "part 2" of the hardening tree, late in -rc1 now that all the other trees with strlcpy() removals have landed. One new user appeared (in bcachefs) but was a trivial refactor. The kernel is now free of the strlcpy() API!
Thanks! -Kees The following changes since commit b0d326da462e20285236e11e4cbc32085de9f363: Merge tag 'sched-urgent-2024-01-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip (2024-01-18 11:57:33 -0800) are available in the Git repository at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git tags/strlcpy-removal-v6.8-rc1 for you to fetch changes up to d26270061ae66b915138af7cd73ca6f8b85e6b44: string: Remove strlcpy() (2024-01-19 11:59:11 -0800) ---------------------------------------------------------------- strlcpy removal for v6.8-rc1 - Remove of the final (very recent) user of strlcpy() (in bcachefs). - Remove the strlcpy() API.
