Hello,

Thanks all for testing and sorry for this issue.

True, the memcpy should not be needed but I copied at the beginning of kb_state
to avoid having to compute the kb_state + sizeof(struct cros_ec_command) offset
in cros_ec_keyb_process().

As Alexandru said, the EC is returning EC_RES_INVALID_VERSION and looking at
this code I see that there is a difference since v1 was using designated
initializers when declaring the struct cros_ec_command as a local variable in
the stack.

But in v2 the struct members are explicitly initialized since kb_state is not
initialized and I missed the version field so now it has an undefined value.

Heiko, Alexandru,

I don't have access to my Chromebooks right now but could you please test the
following patch [0] to see if that is the problem?

It seems I got it working on my test just out of luck since it happened that
version was initialized to 0 due the data it was on the stack.

Tomorrow when I've access to the Chromebooks I'll do more extensive testing
and see if I can reproduce the issue and if my assumption is correct.

Best regards,
Javier
