Hi Hans,

After change to use "v4l-utils.git master branch", "V4l2-compliance
-d /dev/video1" fail on "fail: v4l2-test-buffers.cpp(555):
check_0(crbufs.reserved, sizeof(crbufs.reserved))".

Check the source code and found

	memset(&crbufs, 0xff, sizeof(crbufs));   -> crbufs to 0xff
        node->g_fmt(crbufs.format, i);
        crbufs.count = 0;
        crbufs.memory = m;
        fail_on_test(doioctl(node, VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS, &crbufs));   
        fail_on_test(check_0(crbufs.reserved, sizeof(crbufs.reserved)));
        fail_on_test(crbufs.index != q.g_buffers());

crbufs is initialized to fill with 0xff and after VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS,
crbufs.reserved field should be 0x0. But v4l2_m2m_create_bufs and
vb2_create_bufs do not process reserved filed.
Do we really need to check reserved filed filled with 0x0? Or we need to
change vb2_create_bufs to fix this issue?

The reserved field is zeroed in v4l_create_bufs() in v4l2-ioctl.c, so even before
vb2_create_bufs et al is called.

The fact that it is no longer zeroed afterwards suggests that someone is messing
with the reserved field.

You'll have to do a bit more digging, I'm afraid.

Regards,
