Replace the strcpy() call that copies the device name into tunnel->parms.name with strscpy(), to avoid potential overflow and guarantee NULL termination. This uses the two-argument form of strscpy(), where the destination size is inferred from the array type. Destination is tunnel->parms.name (size IFNAMSIZ). Tested in QEMU (Alpine rootfs): - Created IPv6 GRE tunnels over loopback - Assigned overlay IPv6 addresses - Verified bidirectional ping through the tunnel - Changed tunnel parameters at runtime (`ip -6 tunnel change`) Signed-off-by: Miguel García <miguelgarciaroman8@gmail.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250818220203.899338-1-miguelgarciaroman8@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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 reStructuredText 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.
