Re: [PATCH v5 2/5] Introduction of HP-BIOSCFG driver (2)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Jorge,

First of all some generic remarks which apply to all patches:

1. Quite a few non local / non static functions have generic names like e.g.
calculate_string_buffer().

If this code is build into the main kernel vmlinuz then these will
all be part of a global namespace, leading to potential symbol
collisions to avoid these please make the following 2 changes

i) Make functions which are only used in a single .c file static
   e.g. wmi_error_and_message()
ii) Prefix others with hp_bioscfg_, e.g. hp_bioscfg_calculate_string_buffer()
   to avoid possible symbol clashes

More detailed review remarks inline below.

You have 2 spaces here between "int' and "buffer_size", please
drop 1 of the spaces.

Since auth_empty_value has a strlen of 0 now, you are replacing an empty
string with an empty string now, so this entire if can be remove since
it is a no-op.

You need to do some sanity checks on the returned buffer here before
consuming it. Something like this:

	if (obj->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER ||
	    obj->buffer.length > sizeof(*bios_return)) {
		pr_warn("query 0x%x returned wrong type or too small buffer\n", query);
		ret = -EINVAL;
		goto out_free;
	}

Note that the type check must be done before using
any obj->buffer.* members

You don't need to check obj->buffer.pointer (after the added sanity
checks above) if the type == ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER and length > 0
then you can always safely dereference obj->buffer.pointer,
so you can drop this check.

The actual length returned by utf8s_to_utf16smay be different
from len * 2. E.g. a multi-byte UTF8 sequence might fit in a single
UTF16. So you should remove the:

	*p++ = len * 2;

Here and pass "p + 1" to utf8s_to_utf16s to reserve the space
and then store the length after the conversion based on the return
value of utf8s_to_utf16s().

In case of one of these 2 errors you are now just leaving garbage in
the buffer, instead incase of error just file the destination buffer
with an empty string like you do for len == 0 above. To make this easier
maybe add a little helper like this:

static void *utf16_empty_string(u16 *p)
{
	*p++ = 2;
	*p++ = (u8)0x00;
	return p;
}

And then do:

	if (len == 0)
		return utf16_empty_string(p);

...

	if (ret < 0) {
		dev_err(bioscfg_drv.class_dev, "UTF16 conversion failed\n");
		return utf16_empty_string(p);
	}

	if ((ret * sizeof(u16)) > U16_MAX) {
		dev_err(bioscfg_drv.class_dev, "Error string too long\n");
		return utf16_empty_string(p);
	}

	*p = ret * sizeof(u16);
	return p + len;
}

This (populate_string_buffer) function is not used anywhere,
so please just drop it and don't forget to also remove it
from bioscfg.h .

Also note that it does not store the length in front of
the converted string, so it also seems to be buggy.

There are 2 spaces after the "=" here, please drop 1 space.

This function is only used for last_error_show(),
I see how its use to convert an error to a kernel
error code can be useful elsewhere (although it is
not used as such atm).

But in case of the last_error_show() usage the
current use is a problem, see below.

static and drop the prototype from bioscfg.h .

Since this is intended for last_error_show usage, this really should be:

	if (msg != NULL)
		return sysfs_emit(msg, "%d,\"%s\"", error_code, error_msg);

You may never pass the same dest and source buffers to printf
like functions, this can go very wrong, instead just directly
call sysfs_emit inside wmi_error_and_message() as suggested above
and then you can just do:

	return wmi_error_and_message(bioscfg_drv.last_wmi_status, buf);

here.

Also please document last_error in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

Since you don't modify attr_name (unlike attr_value) there is no need
to make a local copy, just use kobj->name directly instead of
the copy stored in attr_name.

Why ?

At a minimum add a comment explaining this.
