[PATCH] drm/xe/configfs: Constify struct configfs_item_operations and configfs_group_operations
From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Mon May 25 2026 - 08:36:49 EST
'struct configfs_item_operations' and 'configfs_group_operations' are not
modified in this driver.
Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so
increases 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
34095 15704 128 49927 c307 drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_configfs.o
After:
=====
text data bss dec hex filename
34447 15352 128 49927 c307 drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_configfs.o
