Here is a patch that fixes this problem, along with the S_FMT problem you patched earlier. TRY_FMT had the same problem as S_FMT, so I fixed that one as well too. v4l2-ioctl: Clear buffer type specific trailing fields/padding From: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Some ioctls have structs that are a different size depending on what type of buffer is being used. If the buffer type leaves a field unused or has padding space at the end, this space should be zeroed out. The problems with S_FMT and REQBUFS were original identified and patched by Márton Németh <nm127@xxxxxxxxxxx>.
