gcc-9 complains about a possibly unterminated string in the strncpy() destination:
In function 'rtw_cfg80211_add_monitor_if',
inlined from 'cfg80211_rtw_add_virtual_intf' at drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/ioctl_cfg80211.c:2209:9:
drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/ioctl_cfg80211.c:2146:2: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 16 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
2146 | strncpy(mon_ndev->name, name, IFNAMSIZ);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This one is a false-positive because of the explicit termination in the following
line, and recent versions of clang and gcc no longer warn about this.
Interestingly, the other strncpy() in this file is missing a termination but
does not produce a warning, possibly because of the type confusion and the
cast between u8 and char.
Change both strncpy() instances to strscpy(), which avoids the warning as well
as the possibly missing termination. No additional padding is needed here.

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.
