Linux kernel source tree
gcc -Wstringop-truncation warns about copying a string that results in a
missing nul termination:
drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c: In function 'acpi_tb_find_table':
drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c:60:9: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 6 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
60 | strncpy(header.oem_id, oem_id, ACPI_OEM_ID_SIZE);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c:61:9: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 8 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
61 | strncpy(header.oem_table_id, oem_table_id, ACPI_OEM_TABLE_ID_SIZE);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The code works as intended, and the warning could be addressed by using
a memcpy(), but turning the warning off for this file works equally well
and may be easier to merge.

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 reStructuredText 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.
