[PATCH] ASoC: SOF: use __u32 instead of uint32_t in uapi headers

[PATCH] ASoC: SOF: use __u32 instead of uint32_t in uapi headers

[Masahiro Yamada]

When CONFIG_UAPI_HEADER_TEST=y, exported headers are compile-tested to
make sure they can be included from user-space.

Currently, header.h and fw.h are excluded from the test coverage.
To make them join the compile-test, we need to fix the build errors
attached below.

For a case like this, we decided to use __u{8,16,32,64} variable types
in this discussion:

Applied "ASoC: SOF: use __u32 instead of uint32_t in uapi headers" to the asoc tree

[Mark Brown]

[-- Warning: decoded text below may be mangled, UTF-8 assumed --]
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 6632 bytes --]

The patch

   ASoC: SOF: use __u32 instead of uint32_t in uapi headers

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-5.3

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

these files are shared with the SOF project and used as is (with minor 
formatting) for the firmware compilation. I am not sure I understand the 
ask here, are you really asking SOF to use linux-specific type definitions?

Actually this is linux-kernel UAPI header files, so yes, we should
follow the convention there as much as possible.

So far we haven't been strict about these types.  But now we have a
unit test for checking it, so it's a good opportunity to address the
issues.

Maybe a bit of background. For SOF we split the includes in 4 directories

https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/tree/master/src/include

- sof: internal includes for firmware only
- ipc: definitions of the structures for information exchanged over the 
IPC channel. This directory is used as is by the Linux kernel and 
mirrored in include/sound/sof
- user: definitions needed for firmware tools, e.g. to generate the 
image or parse the trace. this directory is not used by the Linux kernel.
- kernel: definitions for the firmware format, needed for the loader to 
parse the firmware files. This is not directly used by applications 
running on the target, it really defines the content passed to the 
kernel with request_firmware. This directory is mirrored in the Linux 
include/uapi/sound/sof directory.

Our goal is to minimize the differences and allow deltas e.g. for 
license or comments. We could add a definition for __u32 when linux is 
not used, I am just not sure if these two files really fall in the UAPI 
category and if the checks make sense.

If you can build all the SOF user space without these headers being
installed to /usr/include/sound/sof/, you can move them from
include/uapi/sound/sof to include/sounds/sof and leave the types
unchanged.

yes we don't need those files to build userspace stuff. The idea was 
that these format definitions establish a contract between userspace 
(more specifically the files stored in /lib/firmware) and the kernel. 
IIRC we wanted to make sure that any changes would be tracked as 
breaking userspace. If the consensus is that the uapi directory is 
strictly used for builds then we should indeed move those files

I don't see a problem with keeping the files in uapi for practical
purposes, but then I think it makes sense to apply the same rules as
for other uapi headers and use user-space clean type names.

On a related note: Using an 'enum' in an ABI structure is not portable
across architectures. This is probably fine in a UAPI as long as user
and kernel space agree on the size of an enum, but if the same
structure is used to talk to the firmware, it won't work on architectures
that have a different size for the first field.

Both comments from Arnd make sense.

If this header does not need to be in uapi/,
moving it out is fine.

But, looks like Mark has already picked up this.
(His review is so quick)

yes, we've removed all enums in SOF and missed this one. This should be 
changed, thanks for the note.
