strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.
For 2 out of 3 of these changes we can simply swap in strscpy() as it
guarantess NUL-termination which is needed for the following trace
print.
trace_rpcgss_context() should use memcpy as its format specifier %.*s
allows for the length to be specifier (__entry->len). Due to this,
acceptor does not technically need to be NUL-terminated. Moreover,
swapping in strscpy() and keeping everything else the same could result
in truncation of the source string by one byte. To remedy this, we could
use `len + 1` but I am unsure of the size of the destination buffer so a
simple memcpy should suffice.
| TP_printk("win_size=%u expiry=%lu now=%lu timeout=%u acceptor=%.*s",
| __entry->window_size, __entry->expiry, __entry->now,
| __entry->timeout, __entry->len, __get_str(acceptor))
I suspect acceptor not to naturally be a NUL-terminated string due to
the presence of some stringify methods.

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.
