From aabe047f8b8055b66cf55a88c688c6660a3f6aca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hrushiraj Gandhi Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 20:19:53 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] gcov: use strscpy() instead of strcpy() in init_node() node->name is a flexible array member sized to exactly strlen(name) + 1 bytes at allocation time in new_node(), so this copy can never actually overflow. Still, prefer the bounded strscpy() over strcpy() on general principle; pass the same strlen(name) + 1 bound the allocation used, since sizeof() cannot be applied to a flexible array member. No functional change.
