All,

this is supposed to go out in about 3 weeks time. Please point out backport
candidates you find missing from its staging branch, but which you consider
relevant.

Marek's patches below are each straightforward and enable clean builds with newer gcc.

fa7789e : tools/libxc: fix strncpy size

27751d8 : tools/misc: fix hypothetical buffer overflow in xen-lowmemd

938c8f5 : tools/xenpmd: fix possible '\0' truncation

7f601f7 : tools/gdbsx: fix -Wstringop-truncation warning

437e00f : tools/kdd: mute spurious gcc warning

2de2b10 : tools/kdd: alternative way of muting spurious gcc warning

3a633c2 : tools/blktap2: fix hypothetical buffer overflow

850e89b : tools/blktap2: fix possible '\0' truncation

This additional patch that I just posted is probably too new for consideration for this, but it fixes a build warning with gcc 8.1:

https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2018-07/msg01718.html

 : tools/xentop : replace use of deprecated vwprintw

so maybe not for this one, but perhaps the next.

The full set above passed compile test for x86-64, applied on top of current staging-4.9.
