[BUG]
There is a bug report that using the latest trunk GCC 15, btrfs would cause
unterminated-string-initialization warning:
linux-6.6/fs/btrfs/print-tree.c:29:49: error: initializer-string for array of ‘char’ is too long [-Werror=unterminated-string-initialization]
29 | { BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_TREE_OBJECTID, "BLOCK_GROUP_TREE" },
|
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[CAUSE]
To print tree names we have an array of root_name_map structure, which
uses "char name[16];" to store the name string of a tree.
But the following trees have names exactly at 16 chars length:
- "BLOCK_GROUP_TREE"
- "RAID_STRIPE_TREE"
This means we will have no space for the terminating '\0', and can lead
to unexpected access when printing the name.
[FIX]
Instead of "char name[16];" use "const char *" instead.
Since the name strings are all read-only data, and are all NULL
terminated by default, there is not much need to bother the length at
all.

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.
