Got below warning with gcc 8.2 compiler. net/tipc/topsrv.c: In function ‘tipc_topsrv_start’: net/tipc/topsrv.c:660:2: warning: ‘strncpy’ specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Wstringop-overflow=] strncpy(srv->name, name, strlen(name) + 1); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ net/tipc/topsrv.c:660:27: note: length computed here strncpy(srv->name, name, strlen(name) + 1); ^~~~~~~~~~~~ So change it to correct length and use strscpy.
