`strncpy()` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. We know `osi->string` is a NUL-terminated string due to its eventual use in `acpi_install_interface()` and `acpi_remove_interface()` which expect a `acpi_string` which has been specifically typedef'd as: | typedef char *acpi_string; /* Null terminated ASCII string */ ... and which also has other string functions used on it like `strlen`. Furthermore, padding is not needed in this instance either. Due to the reasoning above a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] since it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer and doesn't unnecessarily NUL-pad. While there is unlikely to be a buffer overread (or other related bug) in this case, we should still favor a more robust and less ambiguous interface.

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.
