[PATCH 1/3] arm64: efi: Simplify arch_efi_call_virt macro by not using efi_##f##_t type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, the arch_efi_call_virt() assumes all users of it will have
defined a type 'efi_##f##_t' to make use of it. It is unnecessarily
forcing the users to create a new typedef when __efi_rt_asm_wrapper()
actually expects void pointer.

Simplify the arch_efi_call_virt() macro by typecasting p->f to (void *)
as required by __efi_rt_asm_wrapper() and eliminate the explicit need
for efi_##f##_t type for every user of this macro.

This is needed now in preparation to enable PRMT support on ARM64.

Hi Ard,

I am not sure if you prefer to add type for each users of this or this
is acceptable. I see only compile time advantage but I am not sure if
it make sense to add typedefs in ACPI PRMT driver just for this reason.

Let me know.

Regards,
Sudeep
