This is the kind of stuff you want running in a service out side of a micro kernel, but as we are stuck with systemd/gnu/linux systems, this is what we have...



I could further into the rant, I'm ...stunned by parsing logic crippled as type specific functions.

Why does `strscpy_truncate(dst,src,count)` exist at all ? it seem like a generic buffer/array `take(dst,src,count)`. And how problematic would be to use a compiled regex to parse "major:minor", or proper logic by seeking for ':' and read before after that point.


The strcpy-type functions stop after they read a '\x0'. They are not like memcpy!
