D71119 changed the type of a local variable as a concession to a false-positive compiler warning (the NUL termination is not required for a name with NameSize characters).

Changing the interface of a public member of a class is a more intrusive change. Presumably, we can keep the type of Name here as-is and use memcpy to populate Name after using strncpy in the constructor.

Use memcpy

It's not clear this is properly null terminated in the other cases. Perhaps we should zero-initialize this field first (especially since we're going to write out the bytes directly)?

@daltenty
Name() here have already zero-initialized the array.

I think N did not need to be a null-terminated string (if 8 characters long) before the change. Would be make sense to change N to be a StringRef and use the length from that? I think that makes it clear that just passing the argument either requires an explicit length or a terminating NUL.

Thanks for adding a check here to catch improper usage.

[nullptr.cpp]

Use StringRef

LGTM; thanks!
