[PATCH] greybus: es2: Use pointer from memcpy() call for assignment in output_async()

by Markus Elfring

From: Markus Elfring <elfring(a)users.sourceforge.net> Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 19:50:39 +0100 A pointer was assigned to a variable. The same pointer was used for the destination parameter of a memcpy() call. This function is documented in the way that the same value is returned. Thus convert two separate statements into a direct variable assignment for the return value from a memory copy action. The source code was transformed by using the Coccinelle software.

[PATCH] staging: greybus: fw-download: Fix find firmware req

by Ayush Singh

According to the Greybus Spec published here [0], the Greybus firmware download find firmware request should have both tag and format as request arguments. However, currently, the linux kernel seems to have defined this request incorrectly since format is missing. The patch adds format to request and am using it as the file extension of the firmware.

However, currently, the linux kernel seems to have defined this request incorrectly since format is missing. The patch adds format to request and am using it as the file extension of the firmware. I came across the bug while working on greybus-for-zephyr [1], to get it ready for upstreaming as zephyr module. Open Questions *************** 1. Handle empty format Not sure what to do in case format is just NULL. Should the request fail? There is no reason to not support firmware without extension. So personally, I don't think it should be treated as error.

[PATCH] staging: greybus: documentation: replace strncpy() with strscpy_pad()

by Vivek BalachandharTN

strncpy() does not guarantee NUL-termination and is deprecated for NUL-terminated strings. Replace it with strscpy_pad(), which guarantees NUL-termination and zero-pads the remaining bytes, matching the fixed-size firmware tag semantics.
