From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@xxxxxxxxxx> Resent as none of these have had any comments since being sent out over a month ago. Note these are very straight forward, but I've messed up such things in the past so really appreciate it if someone takes the time to do a quick sanity check. I have picked up those patches that did get review in first posting and dropped them from this posting. Cover letter from first posting. I finally got around to do a manual audit of all the calls to iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() which has the somewhat odd requirements of: 1. 8 byte alignment of the provided buffer. 2. space for an 8 byte naturally aligned timestamp to be inserted at the end. Unfortunately there were rather a lot of these left, but time to bite the bullet and clean them up. As discussed previous in https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20200920112742.170751-1-jic23@xxxxxxxxxx/ it is not easy to fix the alignment issue without requiring a bounce buffer (see part 4 of the alignment fixes for a proposal for that where it is absolutely necessary). Part 3 contains the cases where the struct approach in part 2 did not seem appropriate. Normally there are two possible reasons for this. 1. Would have required an additional memset operation to avoid any possibility of leaking kernel data. 2. The location of the timestamp may depend on the channels enabled. This normally happens when the max sizeof channels is greater than 8 bytes. Once all cases are fixes, I'll take a look at hardening against any accidental reintroductions. Note that on many platforms and usecases the bug in question will never occur.
