The deprecated helper strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer. This could result in linear overflows beyond the end of the buffer, leading to all kinds of misbehaviors. The safe replacement is strscpy() [1].
What's you plan? Are you going to send 200 patches like this just for networking? $ git grep strcpy -- net/ drivers/net/ | wc -l 199 Please don't. I'll look thru this series but it feels like such a waste of time.
