Hi Joe,

Glad you like this series.

First version here, very similar to yours:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/YvhXzarjOLEJ8nsW@shikoro/

The final version has another rule to add missing parens to the argument
of a sizeof operator:

@ main @
@@
- strlcpy
+ strscpy
  (...);

// make sure sizeof always has parens. Isomorphs will remove existing ones if present before.
@ add_parens depends on main @
expression dst, src, E;
@@
  strscpy(dst, src,
- sizeof(E)
+ sizeof(E)
  );

Like your try, some header files are missing. I guess Julia's remarks
about that from the thread above will fix this as well. However, since
there are the instances left where the return value of strlcpy is used
anyhow, I left those for manual fixing.

Thanks,

   Wolfram
