While these functions are often dangerous, forcing the user to work around their absence is often much worse. Let's provide small versions of each of them. The respective sizes in bytes on a few architectures are: strncat(): x86:0x33 mips:0x68 arm:0x3c strlcat(): x86:0x25 mips:0x4c arm:0x2c The two are quite different, and strncat() is even different from strncpy() in that it limits the amount of data it copies and will always terminate the output by one zero, while strlcat() will always limit the total output to the specified size and will put a zero if possible.

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 Restructured Text 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.
