From: Md Haris Iqbal <haris.iqbal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The kernel test robot triggerred the following warning, >> drivers/block/rnbd/rnbd-clt.c:1397:42: warning: size argument in 'strlcpy' call appears to be size of the source; expected the size of the destination [-Wstrlcpy-strlcat-size] strlcpy(dev->pathname, pathname, strlen(pathname) + 1); ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~ To get rid of the above warning, use a kstrdup as Bart suggested.
