This small patch fixes some simple warnings in JFR code, found by GCC 8.1 Essentially, any code sequence of the pattern

    int l = strlen(somestring)
    char* buffer = malloc(l + 1)
    strncpy(buffer, somestring, l)
    buffer[l] = 0

is replaced by

    int len = strlen(somestring)
    char* buffer = malloc(len + 1)
    strncpy(buffer, somestring, len + 1)
