Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4] net/tap: fix coverity warning on strncpy
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2017 09:43:04 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170217154304.50214-1-keith.wiles@intel.com> (raw)

Calling strncpy with a maximum size argument of 16 bytes on destination
array "ifr.ifr_ifrn.ifrn_name" of size 16 bytes might leave the
destination string unterminated.

Signed-off-by: Keith Wiles <keith.wiles@intel.com>

v4 - Forgot to finish rebase
v3 - convert strncpy to use snprintf instead.
v2 - fix the checkpatch warning no spaces around '-'
v1 - fix coverity warning on strncpy using invalid length.
