<content type='text'>
strlcpy is deprecated.  see: Documentation/process/deprecated.rst

Change the calls that do not use the strlcpy return value to the
preferred strscpy.

Done with cocci script:

@@
expression e1, e2, e3;
@@

-	strlcpy(
+	strscpy(
	e1, e2, e3);

This cocci script leaves the instances where the return value is
used unchanged.

After this patch, sound/ has 3 uses of strlcpy() that need to be
manually inspected for conversion and changed one day.

$ git grep -w strlcpy sound/
sound/usb/card.c:               len = strlcpy(card-&gt;longname, s, sizeof(card-&gt;longname));
sound/usb/mixer.c:      return strlcpy(buf, p-&gt;name, buflen);
sound/usb/mixer.c:                      return strlcpy(buf, p-&gt;names[index], buflen);

Miscellenea:

o Remove trailing whitespace in conversion of sound/core/hwdep.c

<title>ALSA: timer: Replace tasklet with work</title>

<content type='text'>
The tasklet is an old API that should be deprecated, usually can be
converted to another decent API.  In ALSA core timer API, the
callbacks can be offlined to a tasklet when a flag is set in the timer
backend.  It can be achieved gracefully with a work queued in the
high-prio system workqueue.

This patch replaces the usage of tasklet in ALSA timer API with a
simple work.  Currently the tasklet feature is used only in the system
timer and hrtimer backends, so both are patched to use the new flag
name SNDRV_TIMER_HW_WORK, too.

Cppcheck complains about a possible NULL pointer dereference but it
actually looks like the NULL assignment is not needed (same loop is
used in other parts of the file without it).

<content type='text'>
The struct snd_timer_tread will use 'timespec' type variables to record
timestamp, which is not year 2038 safe on 32bits system.

Since the struct snd_timer_tread is passed through read() rather than
ioctl(), and the read syscall has no command number that lets us pick
between the 32-bit or 64-bit version of this structure.

Thus we introduced one new command SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TREAD64 and new
struct snd_timer_tread64 replacing timespec with s64 type to handle
64bit time_t. That means we will set tu-&gt;tread = TREAD_FORMAT_64BIT
when user space has a 64bit time_t, then we will copy to user with
struct snd_timer_tread64. Otherwise we will use 32bit time_t variables
when copying to user.

Moreover this patch replaces timespec type with timespec64 type and
related y2038 safe APIs.
