perf parse-events: Fix unchecked usage of strncpy()
[ Upstream commit bd8d57fb7e25e9fcf67a9eef5fa13aabe2016e07 ] 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: util/parse-events.c: In function 'print_symbol_events': util/parse-events.c:2465:4: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 100 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(name, syms->symbol, MAX_NAME_LEN); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In function 'print_symbol_events.constprop', inlined from 'print_events' at util/parse-events.c:2508:2: util/parse-events.c:2465:4: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 100 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(name, syms->symbol, MAX_NAME_LEN); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In function 'print_symbol_events.constprop', inlined from 'print_events' at util/parse-events.c:2511:2: util/parse-events.c:2465:4: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 100 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(name, syms->symbol, MAX_NAME_LEN); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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: 947b4ad1d198 ("perf list: Fix max event string size") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-b663e33bm6x8hrkie4uxh7u2@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
