+/*******************************************************************************
+ *
+ * FUNCTION:    AcpiUtSafeStrcpy, AcpiUtSafeStrcat, AcpiUtSafeStrncat
+ *
+ * PARAMETERS:  Adds a "DestSize" parameter to each of the standard string
+ *              functions. This is the size of the Destination buffer.
+ *
+ * RETURN:      TRUE if the operation would overflow the destination buffer.
+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION: Safe versions of standard Clib string functions. Ensure that
+ *              the result of the operation will not overflow the output string
+ *              buffer.
+ *
+ * NOTE:        These functions are typically only helpful for processing
+ *              user input and command lines. For most ACPICA code, the
+ *              required buffer length is precisely calculated before buffer
+ *              allocation, so the use of these functions is unnecessary.
