This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2: util/header.c: In function 'perf_event__synthesize_event_update_unit': util/header.c:3586:2: error: 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(ev->data, evsel->unit, size); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ util/header.c:3579:16: note: length computed here size_t size = strlen(evsel->unit); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Fixes: a6e5281780d1 ("perf tools: Add event_update event unit type") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-fiikh5nay70bv4zskw2aa858@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin --- diff --git a/tools/perf/util/header.c b/tools/perf/util/header.c index 1ceb332..696f265 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/header.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/header.c @@ -3132,7 +3132,7 @@ perf_event__synthesize_event_update_unit(struct perf_tool *tool, if (ev == NULL) return -ENOMEM; - strncpy(ev->data, evsel->unit, size); + strlcpy(ev->data, evsel->unit, size + 1); err = process(tool, (union perf_event *)ev, NULL, NULL); free(ev); return err;
