The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strscpy() instead.
This fixes the following warning with gcc 8.2: kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c: In function 'kdb_getstr': kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c:449:3: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 256 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation] strncpy(kdb_prompt_str, prompt, CMD_BUFLEN); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Wenlin Kang <wenlin.k...@windriver.com> --- kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c b/kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c index 6a4b414..3a5184e 100644 --- a/kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c +++ b/kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c @@ -446,7 +446,7 @@ static char *kdb_read(char *buffer, size_t bufsize) char *kdb_getstr(char *buffer, size_t bufsize, const char *prompt) { if (prompt && kdb_prompt_str != prompt) - strncpy(kdb_prompt_str, prompt, CMD_BUFLEN); + strscpy(kdb_prompt_str, prompt, CMD_BUFLEN); kdb_printf(kdb_prompt_str); kdb_nextline = 1; /* Prompt and input resets line number */ return kdb_read(buffer, bufsize); -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ Kgdb-bugreport mailing list Kgdb-bugreport@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kgdb-bugreport
