[ Upstream commit 7572588085a13d5db02bf159542189f52fdb507e ]
The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it.
This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2:
util/header.c: In function 'perf_event__synthesize_event_update_unit': util/header.c:3586:2: error: 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(ev->data, evsel->unit, size); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ util/header.c:3579:16: note: length computed here size_t size = strlen(evsel->unit); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
