I use this version of gcc to compile, and the compilation fails. It said
that "error: writing 1 byte into a region of size 0
[-Werror=stringop-overflow=]".
This patch is to fix it to build successfully.
This doesn't really fix anything. GCC 11 is buggy and the issues you
see are false positives that doesn't show up in other versions of
the compiler.
Fixes: 89741e7e42f6 ("Makefile: Enable -Wstringop-overflow globally")
The commit ID is from a patch that's currently in linux-next, which
does not guarantee it's a stable commit. So, it shouldn't be used
for any tag in any changelog text. In fact, it has changed a couple
of times in the last couple of weeks.
-Wstringop-overflow will soon be disabled for GCC 11 by default. So,
this patch is unnecessary. I'll probably commit a patch for this next
week. :)
Thanks
