[Qemu-block] sheepdog build warning

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

mingw32 build on fedora fails with this warning:

/scm/qemu/block/sheepdog.c: In function 'find_vdi_name':
/scm/qemu/block/sheepdog.c:1239:5: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 256 equals 
destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
     strncpy(buf + SD_MAX_VDI_LEN, tag, SD_MAX_VDI_TAG_LEN);
     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make: *** [/scm/qemu/rules.mak:69: block/sheepdog.o] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....


Reading the code one sees it's working as intended:


static int find_vdi_name(BDRVSheepdogState *s, const char *filename,
                         uint32_t snapid, const char *tag, uint32_t *vid,
                         bool lock, Error **errp)
{
    int ret, fd;
    SheepdogVdiReq hdr;
    SheepdogVdiRsp *rsp = (SheepdogVdiRsp *)&hdr;
    unsigned int wlen, rlen = 0;
    char buf[SD_MAX_VDI_LEN + SD_MAX_VDI_TAG_LEN];

    fd = connect_to_sdog(s, errp);
    if (fd < 0) {
        return fd;
    }

    /* This pair of strncpy calls ensures that the buffer is zero-filled,
     * which is desirable since we'll soon be sending those bytes, and
     * don't want the send_req to read uninitialized data.
     */
    strncpy(buf, filename, SD_MAX_VDI_LEN);
    strncpy(buf + SD_MAX_VDI_LEN, tag, SD_MAX_VDI_TAG_LEN);


.....

}



so this seems to be the case of GCC developers deciding that
strncpy is simply a bad API and a correct use of it should be
warned against.

I propose either

1. simply adding

#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wstringop-truncation"

in osdep.

2. adding an inline wrapper with said pragma in there.

3. -Wno-stringop-truncation is the makefile

Thoughts?
