The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it. This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2: In function 'decompress_kmodule', inlined from 'dso__decompress_kmodule_fd' at util/dso.c:305:9: util/dso.c:298:3: error: 'strncpy' destination unchanged after copying no bytes [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(pathname, tmpbuf, len); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CC /tmp/build/perf/util/values.o CC /tmp/build/perf/util/debug.o cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Fixes: c9a8a6131fb6 ("perf tools: Move the temp file processing into decompress_kmodule") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-tl2hdxj64tt4k8btbi6a0ugw@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
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.
