- Since strncpy(3) is not designed to write strings, but rather
(null-padded) character sequences (a.k.a. unterminated strings), we
had to manually append a '\0'. strlcpy(3) creates strings, so they
are always terminated. This removes dependencies between lines, and
also removes chances of accidents.
- Repurposing strncpy(3) to create strings requires calculating the
location of the terminating null byte, which involves a '-1'
calculation. This is a source of off-by-one bugs. The new code has
no '-1' calculations, so there's almost-zero chance of these bugs.
- strlcpy(3) doesn't padd with null bytes. Padding is relevant when
writing fixed-width buffers to binary files, when interfacing certain
APIs (I believe utmpx requires null padding at lease in some
systems), or when sending them to other processes or through the
network. This is not the case, so padding is effectively ignored.
- strlcpy(3) requires that the input string is really a string;
otherwise it crashes (SIGSEGV). Let's check if the input strings are
really strings:
- lib/fields.c:
- 'cp' was assigned from 'newft', and 'newft' comes from fgets(3).
- lib/gshadow.c:
- strlen(string) is calculated a few lines above.
- libmisc/console.c:
- 'cons' comes from getdef_str, which is a bit cryptic, but seems
to generate strings, I guess.1
- libmisc/date_to_str.c:
- It receives a string literal. :)
- libmisc/utmp.c:
- 'tname' comes from ttyname(3), which returns a string.
- src/su.c:
- 'tmp_name' has been passed to strcmp(3) a few lines above.

On Linux, utmpx and utmp are identical. However, documentation (manual
pages) covers utmp, and just says about utmpx that it's identical to
utmp. It seems that it's preferred to use utmp, at least by reading the
manual pages.
Moreover, we were defaulting to utmp (utmpx had to be explicitly enabled
at configuration time). So, it seems safer to just make it permanent,
which should not affect default builds.

There are several issues with getpass(3).
Many implementations of it share the same issues that the infamous
gets(3). In glibc it's not so terrible, since it's a wrapper
around getline(3). But it still has an important bug:
If the password is long enough, getline(3) will realloc(3) memory,
and prefixes of the password will be laying around in some
deallocated memory.
See the getpass(3) manual page for more details, and especially
the commit that marked it as deprecated, which links to a long
discussion in the linux-man@ mailing list.
So, readpassphrase(3bsd) is preferrable, which is provided by
libbsd on GNU systems. However, using readpassphrase(3) directly
is a bit verbose, so we can write our own wrapper with a simpler
interface similar to that of getpass(3).
One of the benefits of writing our own interface around
readpassphrase(3) is that we can hide there any checks that should
be done always and which would be error-prone to repeat every
time. For example, check that there was no truncation in the
password.
Also, use malloc(3) to get the buffer, instead of using a global
buffer. We're not using a multithreaded program (and it wouldn't
make sense to do so), but it's nice to know that the visibility of
our passwords is as limited as possible.
erase_pass() is a clean-up function that handles all clean-up
correctly, including zeroing the entire buffer, and then
free(3)ing the memory. By using [[gnu::malloc(erase_pass)]], we
make sure that we don't leak the buffers in any case, since the
compiler will be able to enforce clean up.

POSIX.1-2001 defines 'struct dirent' in <dirent.h>. It replaces
the old 'struct direct' found in BSDs. All of the systems that I
checked (including FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD), now provide
<dirent.h> with 'struct dirent', as mandated by POSIX.
Since autoconf first checks <dirent.h> and only if it's missing it
checks other header files, it's clear that it will always find
<dirent.h>, so let's simplify.
GNU autoconf documentation declares this macro as obsolescent, and
acknowledges that all current systems with directory libraries
have <dirent.h>:

pointers not accessed in the future. Since the memzero wrappers purpose
is exactly to unconditionally override memory (e.g. for stored

memset_s(3), explicit_bzero(3) or a hand written implementation using
volatile pointers.
