2022-09-22ipmi: Add __init/__exit annotations to module init/exit funcsXiu Jianfeng1-2/+2
Add missing __init/__exit annotations to module init/exit funcs. Signed-off-by: Xiu Jianfeng <xiujianfeng@huawei.com> Message-Id: <20220922111924.36044-1-xiujianfeng@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>
2021-06-22ipmi: kcs_bmc: Decouple the IPMI chardev from the coreAndrew Jeffery1-6/+25
Now that we have untangled the data-structures, split the userspace interface out into its own module. Userspace interfaces and drivers are registered to the KCS BMC core to support arbitrary binding of either.

2021-06-22ipmi: kcs_bmc: Strip private client data from struct kcs_bmcAndrew Jeffery1-171/+257
Move all client-private data out of `struct kcs_bmc` into the KCS client implementation. With this change the KCS BMC core code now only concerns itself with abstract `struct kcs_bmc` and `struct kcs_bmc_client` types, achieving expected separation of concerns. Further, the change clears the path for implementation of alternative userspace interfaces. The chardev data-structures are rearranged in the same manner applied to the KCS device driver data-structures in an earlier patch - `struct kcs_bmc_client` is embedded in the client's private data and we exploit container_of() to translate as required. Finally, now that it is free of client data, `struct kcs_bmc` is renamed to `struct kcs_bmc_device` to contrast `struct kcs_bmc_client`.

2021-06-22ipmi: kcs_bmc: Split headers into device and clientAndrew Jeffery1-13/+26
Strengthen the distinction between code that abstracts the implementation of the KCS behaviours (device drivers) and code that exploits KCS behaviours (clients). Neither needs to know about the APIs required by the other, so provide separate headers.

2021-06-22ipmi: kcs_bmc: Turn the driver data-structures inside-outAndrew Jeffery1-19/+41
Make the KCS device drivers responsible for allocating their own memory. Until now the private data for the device driver was allocated internal to the private data for the chardev interface. This coupling required the slightly awkward API of passing through the struct size for the driver private data to the chardev constructor, and then retrieving a pointer to the driver private data from the allocated chardev memory. In addition to being awkward, the arrangement prevents the implementation of alternative userspace interfaces as the device driver private data is not independent. Peel a layer off the onion and turn the data-structures inside out by exploiting container_of() and embedding `struct kcs_device` in the driver private data.

2021-06-22ipmi: kcs_bmc: Split out kcs_bmc_cdev_ipmiAndrew Jeffery1-0/+428
Take steps towards defining a coherent API to separate the KCS device drivers from the userspace interface. Decreasing the coupling will improve the separation of concerns and enable the introduction of alternative userspace interfaces. For now, simply split the chardev logic out to a separate file. The code continues to build into the same module.
