+.SH NAME
+strncat \- concatenate a null-padded character sequence into a string
+.SH LIBRARY
+Standard C library
+.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <string.h>
+.PP
+.BI "char *strncat(char *restrict " dst ", const char " src "[restrict ." sz ],
+.BI "               size_t " sz );
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This function catenates the input character sequence
+contained in a null-padded fixed-width buffer,
+into a string at the buffer pointed to by
+.IR dst .
+The programmer is responsible for allocating a destination buffer large enough,
+that is,
+.IR "strlen(dst) + strnlen(src, sz) + 1" .
+.PP
+An implementation of this function might be:
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.EX
+char *
+strncat(char *restrict dst, const char *restrict src, size_t sz)
+{
+    int   len;
+    char  *p;
+\&
+    len = strnlen(src, sz);
+    p = dst + strlen(dst);
+    p = mempcpy(p, src, len);
+    *p = \[aq]\e0\[aq];
+\&
+    return dst;
+}
+.EE
+.in
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.BR strncat ()
+returns
+.IR dst .

+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001, C89, SVr4, 4.3BSD.
+.SH CAVEATS
+The name of this function is confusing.
+This function has no relation to
+.BR strncpy (3).
+.PP
+If the destination buffer is not large enough,
+the behavior is undefined.
+See
+.B _FORTIFY_SOURCE
+in
+.BR feature_test_macros (7).
+.SH BUGS
+This function can be very inefficient.
