[PATCH 0/4] gpiolib: cdev: guard tidying
From: Kent Gibson
Date: Tue Dec 19 2023 - 20:51:31 EST
This series contains some tidying up of gpiolib-cdev following the
recent adoption of guard().
The first couple of patches are minor fixes inspired by recent
submissions and reviews for gpiolib.c.
Patch 1 adds a missing include.
Patch 2 switches allocation of struct linereq from kzalloc() to
kvzalloc() as it can be larger than one page - even more so after the
recent relocation of debounce_period_us.
Patch 3 tidies up the functions that use a guard on the linereq
config_mutex.
Patch 4 tidies up the functions that use a guard on the gpio_device.
The new guard macro definitions probably should be relocated into
gpiolib.h, and I'll do that for v2 if there is a general consensus.
I also note that gpio_ioctl() is NOT covered by a guard to inhibit
removal of the gpio_device. This looks like a bug to me, unless there
is some higher level locking at play that I am unaware of?
Cheers,
Kent.
