device property: Fix the length used in PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING()

2019-03-23T19:10:04Z

commit 2b6e492467c78183bb629bb0a100ea3509b615a5 upstream. With string type property entries we need to use sizeof(const char *) instead of the number of characters as the length of the entry. If the string was shorter then sizeof(const char *), attempts to read it would have failed with -EOVERFLOW. The problem has been hidden because all build-in string properties have had a string longer then 8 characters until now.

device property: Get rid of union aliasing

2018-05-17T10:47:21Z

Commit 318a19718261 (device property: refactor built-in properties support) went way too far and brought a union aliasing. Partially revert it here to get rid of union aliasing. Note, all Apple properties are considered as u8 arrays. To get a value of any of them the caller must use device_property_read_u8_array(). What's union aliasing? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The C99 standard in section 6.2.5 paragraph 20 defines union type as "an overlapping nonempty set of member objects". It also states in section 6.7.2.1 paragraph 14 that "the value of at most one of the members can be stored in a union object at any time'. Union aliasing is a type punning mechanism using union members to store as one type and read back as another. Why it's not good? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Section 6.2.6.1 paragraph 6 says that a union object may not be a trap representation, although its member objects may be. Meanwhile annex J.1 says that "the value of a union member other than the last one stored into" is unspecified [removed in C11]. In TC3, a footnote is added which specifies that accessing a member of a union other than the last one stored causes "the object representation" to be re-interpreted in the new type and specifically refers to this as "type punning". This conflicts to some degree with Annex J.1. While it's working in Linux with GCC, the use of union members to do type punning is not clear area in the C standard and might lead to unspecified behaviour.

The majority of the work here is in the firmware subsystem, with reworks to try to attempt to make the code easier to handle in the long run, but no functional change. There's also some tree-wide sysfs attribute fixups with lots of acks from the various subsystem maintainers, as well as a handful of other normal fixes and changes. And finally, some license cleanups for the driver core and sysfs code.

device property: Introduce fwnode_irq_get()

2018-01-22T15:57:04Z

Until now there were two very similar functions allowing to get Linux IRQ number from ACPI handle (acpi_irq_get()) and OF node (of_irq_get()). The first one appeared to be used only as a subroutine of platform_irq_get(), which (in the generic code) limited IRQ obtaining from _CRS method only to nodes associated to kernel's struct platform_device. This patch introduces a new helper routine - fwnode_irq_get(), which allows to get the IRQ number directly from the fwnode to be used as common for OF/ACPI worlds. It is usable not only for the parents fwnodes, but also for the child nodes comprising their own _CRS methods with interrupts description. In order to be able o satisfy compilation with !CONFIG_ACPI and also simplify the new code, introduce a helper macro (ACPI_HANDLE_FWNODE), with which it is possible to reach an ACPI handle directly from its fwnode.

device property: Introduce fwnode_get_phy_mode()

2018-01-22T15:57:04Z

Until now there were two almost identical functions for obtaining network PHY mode - of_get_phy_mode() and, more generic, device_get_phy_mode(). However it is not uncommon, that the network interface is represented as a child of the actual controller, hence it is not associated directly to any struct device, required by the latter routine. This commit allows for getting the PHY mode for children nodes in the ACPI world by introducing a new function - fwnode_get_phy_mode(). This commit also changes device_get_phy_mode() routine to be its wrapper, in order to prevent unnecessary duplication. Signed-off-by: Marcin Wojtas Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Signed-off-by: David S.
