A racing reader might get a truncated string here. Note that a racing
reader does not take the lock as soon as the first byte is visible.
Not sure what the name is used for, but with that code it is not
reliable.
Also, please zero-terminate the string... scnprintf() does not
guarantee that, if it follows posix.

Don't use strlcpy(). It requires your source to be 0-terminated. Which
is not the case for sync_file->user_name. Either make sure user_name
is 0-terminated, or use strcpy().
