Right, I see the memcpy too:

nvif_object_ctor(struct nvif_object *parent, const char *name, u32 handle,
 s32 oclass, void *data, u32 size, struct nvif_object *object)
{
...
memcpy(args->new.data, data, size);

However, "args" is already zeroed:

struct nvif_client_v0 args = { .device = device };

So there's no need for _pad(). However, I couldn't immediatley see
why args.name must be %NUL terminated. It's ultimately passed through
an ioctl:

return client->driver->ioctl(client->object.priv, data, size, hack);

But I did find it...

args is:

struct nvif_client_v0 {
...
char  name[32];
};

And "name" only ever comes through nvif_client_ctor(), which all end up
via here, using "cli":

struct nouveau_cli {
...
char name[32];
...


snprintf(cli->name, sizeof(cli->name), "%s", sname);
...
ret = nvif_client_ctor(>master.base, cli->name, device,
   >base);

So we'll always be %NUL terminated.

Therefore, yes, conversion looks good:

[PATCH] drm/nouveau/nvif: refactor deprecated strncpy

2023-09-14 Thread Justin Stitt
`strncpy` is deprecated and as such we should prefer more robust and
less ambiguous string interfaces.

A suitable replacement is `strscpy_pad` due to the fact that it
guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer whilst also
maintaining the NUL-padding behavior that `strncpy` provides. I am not
sure whether NUL-padding is strictly needed but I see in
`nvif_object_ctor()` args is memcpy'd elsewhere so I figured we'd keep
the same functionality.
