From 0a33755c4b01ed62a6d025cb585928304f9653d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matti Vaittinen Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2022 11:13:53 +0300 Subject: iio: Don't silently expect attribute types The iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() and the devm_iio_kfifo_buffer_setup_ext() were changed by commit 15097c7a1adc ("iio: buffer: wrap all buffer attributes into iio_dev_attr") to silently expect that all attributes given in buffer_attrs array are device-attributes. This expectation was not forced by the API - and some drivers did register attributes created by IIO_CONST_ATTR(). When using IIO_CONST_ATTRs the added attribute "wrapping" does not copy the pointer to stored string constant and when the sysfs file is read the kernel will access to invalid location. Change the function signatures to expect an array of iio_dev_attrs to avoid similar errors in the future. Merge conflict resolved whilst applying due to patch crossing with two new drivers (kx022a accelerometer and ad4130 ADC).
