'struct mwifiex_if_ops' are not modified in these drivers. Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers. On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example: Before: ====== text data bss dec hex filename 61439 4367 32 65838 1012e drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.o After: ===== text data bss dec hex filename 61699 4127 32 65858 10142 drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.o Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Compile tested-only. --- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.c | 4 ++-- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.h | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c | 4 ++-- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sdio.c | 4 ++-- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/usb.c | 4 ++-- 5 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.c b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.c index 855019fe5485..45eecb5f643b 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.c @@ -54,7 +54,7 @@ const u16 mwifiex_1d_to_wmm_queue[8] = { 1, 0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3 }; * proper cleanup before exiting. */ static int mwifiex_register(void *card, struct device *dev, - struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, void **padapter) + const struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, void **padapter) { struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter; int i; @@ -1713,7 +1713,7 @@ static void mwifiex_probe_of(struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter) */ int mwifiex_add_card(void *card, struct completion *fw_done, - struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, u8 iface_type, + const struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, u8 iface_type, struct device *dev) { struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter; diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.h b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.h index 0674dcf7a537..fb15831201f7 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.h +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/main.h @@ -1470,7 +1470,7 @@ int mwifiex_init_shutdown_fw(struct mwifiex_private *priv, u32 func_init_shutdown); int mwifiex_add_card(void *card, struct completion *fw_done, - struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, u8 iface_type, + const struct mwifiex_if_ops *if_ops, u8 iface_type, struct device *dev); int mwifiex_remove_card(struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter); diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c index 5f997becdbaa..e11458fd4d50 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ #define PCIE_VERSION "1.0" #define DRV_NAME "Marvell mwifiex PCIe" -static struct mwifiex_if_ops pcie_ops; +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops pcie_ops; static const struct mwifiex_pcie_card_reg mwifiex_reg_8766 = { .cmd_addr_lo = PCIE_SCRATCH_0_REG, @@ -3240,7 +3240,7 @@ static void mwifiex_pcie_down_dev(struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter) mwifiex_pcie_free_buffers(adapter); } -static struct mwifiex_if_ops pcie_ops = { +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops pcie_ops = { .init_if = mwifiex_init_pcie, .cleanup_if = mwifiex_cleanup_pcie, .check_fw_status = mwifiex_check_fw_status, diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sdio.c b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sdio.c index 490ffd981164..c1fe48448839 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sdio.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sdio.c @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ static void mwifiex_sdio_work(struct work_struct *work); -static struct mwifiex_if_ops sdio_ops; +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops sdio_ops; static const struct mwifiex_sdio_card_reg mwifiex_reg_sd87xx = { .start_rd_port = 1, @@ -3167,7 +3167,7 @@ static void mwifiex_sdio_up_dev(struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter) dev_err(&card->func->dev, "error enabling SDIO port\n"); } -static struct mwifiex_if_ops sdio_ops = { +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops sdio_ops = { .init_if = mwifiex_init_sdio, .cleanup_if = mwifiex_cleanup_sdio, .check_fw_status = mwifiex_check_fw_status, diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/usb.c b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/usb.c index 6085cd50970d..3034c4405cb5 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/usb.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/usb.c @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ #define USB_VERSION "1.0" -static struct mwifiex_if_ops usb_ops; +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops usb_ops; static const struct usb_device_id mwifiex_usb_table[] = { /* 8766 */ @@ -1585,7 +1585,7 @@ mwifiex_pm_wakeup_card_complete(struct mwifiex_adapter *adapter) return 0; } -static struct mwifiex_if_ops usb_ops = { +static const struct mwifiex_if_ops usb_ops = { .register_dev = mwifiex_register_dev, .unregister_dev = mwifiex_unregister_dev, .wakeup = mwifiex_pm_wakeup_card, -- 2.48.1
