Thanks Dan for the copy_from_user() fix in the link below.

This is much better, the handling of lengths and indexes is much easier
to understand. I hope you agree.

I may be repeating myself on some things, it's been a while since the
last submit. So please forgive me if I do.


Thank you, Corey.
Please do. I dont know how to express my thanks but without your comment the code will not get better.

v7:
+ Remove unneccessary del_timer() in response_timeout() [Corey]
+ Change compatible string from "ampere,ssif-bmc" to "ssif-bmc" [Jae]
+ Add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, ssif_bmc_match), fix blank line [Jae]
+ Dropped the use of ssif_msg_len() macro, use the len directly [Quan]
+ Solve possible issue if both response timer and ssif_bmc_write()
occurred at the same time [Corey]
+ Fix wrong return type of ssif_bmc_poll() [kernel robot test]
+ Refactor and introduce ssif_part_buffer struct to replace the
response_buf to manage each send/receive part of ssif [Quan]
+ Change SSIF_BAD_SMBUS state to SSIF_ABORTING state [Corey]
+ Support abort feature to skip the current bad request/response and
wait until next new request [Corey]
+ Refactor the PEC calculation to avoid the re-calculate the PEC on
each I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED event [Quan]
+ Fix the use of error-proned idx [Corey]
+ Defer the test for valid SMBus command until the read/write part
is determined [Quan]
+ Change/split unsupported_smbus_cmd() to
supported_[write|read]_cmd() [Corey]
+ Abort the request if somehow its size exceeded 255 bytes [Quan]

v6:
+ Drop the use of slave_enable() [Wolfram]
+ Make i2c-aspeed to issue RxCmdLast command on all
I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_REQUESTED event to assert NAK when slave busy [Quan]
+ Make i2c slave to return -EBUSY when it's busy [Quan]
+ Drop the aborting feature as return Completion Code 0xFF may stop
host to retry and make ipmi_ssif.so fails to load [Quan]
+ Add timer to recover slave from busy state when no response [Quan]
+ Clean request/response buffer appropriately [Quan]
+ Add some minor change on error and warning messages [Quan]

v5:
+ None

v4:
+ Send response with Completion code 0xFF when aborting [Quan]
+ Added bounding check on SMBus writes and the whole request [Dan]
+ Moved buffer to end of struct ssif_bmc_ctx to avoid context
corruption if somehow buffer is written past the end [Dan]
+ Return -EINVAL if userspace buffer too small, dont
silence truncate [Corey, Joel]
+ Not necessary to check NONBLOCK in lock [Corey]
+ Enforce one user at a time [Joel]
+ Reject write with invalid response length from userspace [Corey]
+ Add state machines for better ssif bmc state handling [Quan]
+ Drop ssif_bmc_aspeed.c and make ssif_bmc.c is generic
SSIF BMC driver [Quan]
+ Change compatible string "aspeed,ast2500-ssif-bmc" to
"ampere,ssif-bmc" [Quan]
+ Abort current request with invalid SMBus write or
invalid command [Quan]
+ Abort all request if there is pending response [Quan]
+ Changed validate_pec() to validate_request() [Quan]
+ Add unsupported_smbus_cmd() to handle unknown SMBus command [Quan]
+ Print internal state string for ease investigating issue [Quan]
+ Move to READY state on SLAVE_STOP event [Quan]

Shouldn't this be <=? If you were sending something that was exactly 94
bytes, for instance, you should have a 32-byte start, a 31-byte middle,
and a 31-byte end. If you don't have <= here, you would have a start, two
31-byte middles, and a zero-length end, which is forbidden by the spec.

Thank for the comment.
Will fix this in next version.

If so, in "94 bytes" case, we have to assure the end part length is at least 1 bytes. the last middle in this case must be 30.

Should be >= 0 here? If not, (PEC maybe?) you should document why,
because it raises red flags.

Yes, will fix in next version.
The msg_idx should not be 0 here because it must be at least set to 1 in process_smbus_cmd() before calling this function.

The MAX_TRANSACTION is 32 bytes payload + 4 bytes for slave address, the command, the len and the PEC.

Spacing issue here. You need to run patches through checkpatch.pl
before submitting them. Also, the empty lines here and above are
inconsistent with the rest of the file.

Yes, will fix in next version.
But it was always checked with checkpatch.pl everytime. Dont know why checkpatch.pl did not catch it.

Is there any value in having a separate .h file for this? Unless you
want to share something with the IPMI host side, which might make sense
on some of the message numbers, but not a big deal, and even then you
could put the .h file with the .c files.

Except for the userspace API, which I will address later.


So far, there is no benefit to have separate .h file. So it will be merged into one single .c file in next version.

I seem to remember mentioning this before, but there is no reason to
pack the structures below.


The packed structure is because we want to pick the len directly from user space without worry about the padding byte.

As we plan not to use the .h file in next version, I still would like to use packed structure internally inside ssif_bmc.c file.

And second, the following is a userspace API structures, so it needs to
be in its own file in include/uapi/linux, along with any supporting
things that users will need to use. And your userspace code should be
using that file.


Meantime, I'd like not to use .h as I see there is no demand for sharing the data structure between kernel and user space yet. But we may do it in the future.

+struct ssif_msg {
+ u8 len;

Just to be 100% safe, it might be better to use a u16 on this. The spec
sort of limits this to 255 bytes, but it also sort of leaves it open to
be larger.

Yes, u8 only limited to 255 bytes and there is no space for future grow.
