When compile testing this driver on a platform on which probe() is known to fail at compile time, gcc warns about the cgx_lmactype_string[] array being uninitialized: In function 'strncpy', inlined from 'link_status_user_format' at /git/arm-soc/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/af/cgx.c:838:2, inlined from 'cgx_link_change_handler' at /git/arm-soc/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/af/cgx.c:853:2: include/linux/fortify-string.h:27:30: error: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Werror=nonnull] 27 | #define __underlying_strncpy __builtin_strncpy Address this by turning the runtime initialization into a fixed array, which should also produce better code.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
