This PR addresses the trait bound error
[u8]: SSHSource<'_>is not satisfied that occurs when attempting to useFlashConfig::dec()directly with raw byte slices.Problem
The
SSHSourcetrait in the sunset crate is only implemented for the internalDecodeBytes<'de>struct, not for raw[u8]or&mut [u8]types. When developers try to callFlashConfig::dec()directly:The error occurs because the trait system cannot find an implementation of
SSHSourcefor the slice type.Solution
The correct approach is to use the public API
sshwire::read_ssh(), which internally creates the properDecodeBytesstruct that implementsSSHSource:Changes Made
parse_flash_config_from_buffer()function demonstrating the correct usage patternKey Insight
The sunset crate's
sshwire::read_ssh()function is the intended public interface for decoding SSH wire format data. It handles the creation of the internalDecodeBytesstruct and proper error handling, while direct calls to.dec()methods bypass these protections and can lead to type system errors.This fix ensures developers use the proper sunset crate API patterns and avoid low-level trait bound issues.
