The strcpy() function is considered dangerous and eeeevil by people
who are using sophisticated code analysis tools such as "grep". This
is true even when a quick inspection would show that the source is a
constant string ("." or "..") and the destination is a fixed array
which is guaranteed to have enough space. Make the "grep" code
analysis tool happy by using memcpy() isstead of strcpy(). :-)

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.
