[PATCH] samples: rpmsg: Fix mtu printk specifiers
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Tue Sep 08 2026 - 18:22:29 EST
When building rpmsg_client_sample.c for a 32-bit platform, such as
during arm allmodconfig, there are a few warnings due to using an
incorrect specifier for mtu:
samples/rpmsg/rpmsg_client_sample.c:68:59: error: format specifies type 'long' but the argument has type 'ssize_t' (aka 'int') [-Werror,-Wformat]
68 | dev_warn(&rpdev->dev, "invalid rpmsg MTU size = %ld\n", mtu);
| ~~~ ^~~
| %zd
...
samples/rpmsg/rpmsg_client_sample.c:72:50: error: format specifies type 'long' but the argument has type 'ssize_t' (aka 'int') [-Werror,-Wformat]
72 | dev_info(&rpdev->dev, "rpmsg MTU size = %ld\n", mtu);
| ~~~ ^~~
| %zd
...
samples/rpmsg/rpmsg_client_sample.c:79:17: error: format specifies type 'long' but the argument has type 'ssize_t' (aka 'int') [-Werror,-Wformat]
78 | "message size %zu exceeds rpmsg MTU size %ld\n",
| ~~~
| %zd
79 | strlen(MSG), mtu);
| ^~~
Use '%zd', the proper specifier for a 'ssize_t' variable, to clear up
the warning. Additionally, modify the last dev_err() call in
rpmsg_sample_probe() to reuse msg_len instead of calling strlen(MSG)
again and use '%zd' throughout the string consistently.
Fixes: 1029c89bafc7 ("samples: rpmsg: Add MTU size info")
