 Hi Benjamin,

I'd suspect you're interested in some feedback on these, so here is a few :-)
Sadly (ideally?) nothing serious, but a bunch minor suggestions, plus
the odd bug.

The comment does not match the actual file name.

You could give a brief summary of the file(s), if you're feeling gracious ;-)

Reading this makes me wonder if {request,allow}_access won't be better name ?

Should one use a temporary variable so that the caller provided
storage is unchanged in case of an error ?

Is something like below reasonable thing to do in the kernel ?
Same question goes for smaf_register_allocator() further down.

if (!s || ....)
  return -ESHOULDNEVERHAPPEN;

Ops/vfucs normally are const data. Is there something preventing us here ?

The above half of the function looks identical to smaf_map_dma_buf().
Worth factoring it out to a helper function ?

Shouldn't one return an error (-EINVAL or similar) here ?

const ? From a very quick look the compiler should warn us about it -
"smaf_dma_buf_ops discards const qualifier" or similar.

Err this should be return NULL; correct ?

We want to sanitise the input data.{length,flags} before sending it
deeper in the kernel.

Missing free(handle), here and through the rest of the case statement ?

Worth adding smaf_DEselect_allocator_by_name() and using it here + below ?

Worth adding if (data.fd == -1) return -EINVAL; ?

There was a recent 'crusade' to get rid of these. Are you sure we
want/need this ?

Please drop the default initialization.

Initialize the global static variable (smaf_dev) upon declaration ?

Inspired by the bug (?) in this function I think you want to document
the return value throughout the header.

Would be nice if we had more elaborate comment in an UAPI header.

Is it guaranteed to be null terminated ? If so one should mentioned it
otherwise your userspace should be fixed.
Same comments apply for smaf_info::name.

The structs here feels quite fragile. Please read up on Daniel
Vetter's "Botching up ioctls" [1]. Personally I find pahole quite
useful is such process.

Hopefully I haven't lost the plot with the above, if I had don't be
shy to point out.

Thanks,
Emil
