perf dso: Fix unchecked usage of strncpy()
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>
