Technically that restores old (pre-fc958a61ff6d) behavior, but it is still bad:
Userspace can provide a value of -1 (or any other negative number), and it will
translate to 5400000 RPM. So it should either be
if (val <= 0)
return -EINVAL;
or
if (val <= 0)
val = 1;
There is a clamp() which does already turn invalid values into something
valid.
Yes, but
-1 -> -5400000 -> 1, which translates to 5400000 rpm.
This is in contrast to
1 -> 5400000 -> 65534
which translates to a more reasonable 82 rpm.
val = FAN_RPM_TO_PERIOD(val);
val = clamp_val(val, 1, 65534);
But I will make the <= 0 return -EINVAL change and resend.
Thanks,
