You can not just randomly change the size of a user/kernel structure
like this, what just broke because of this?
confused,
The changes are not because of anything is broken, we support 3
different protocol under 1 IOCTL using the same structure. I split the
patch to make it easy to review.
Modification in patch 4, is only for the existing code. This patch
(patch 5) has additional functionality, so we do not want add multiple
changes in single patch (patch 4).
The changes done in patches are as follows:
Patch 4:
- Adding basic structure as per current protocol in upstream kernel
Patch 5:
- Adding additional error code from PMFW.
Patch 6:
- Add changes required to support CPUID protocol
Patch 7:
- Comments modification for MCAMSR protocol (structure remains same as
CPUID)
