strncpy is generally evil - it runs the risk of missing NUL termination, and more often than not wastes time zeroing way more bytes than strictly necessary. We've avoided this evil in our virStrncpy wrapper, except for places where we forgot to use the wrapper; meanwhile, we have also added an even higher layer wrapper for setting virTypedParameter values. * tools/virsh.c (cmdMemtune, cmdBlkdeviotune): Use modern API. * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_strncpy): Tighten.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
