hdr in struct dmar_drhd_unit is used to point the DMAR hardware unit copied at the end of struct dmar_drhd_unit. One zero-sized array may be more elegant for this purpose.
This patch replace *hdr with hdr[0] in struct dmar_drhd_unit. Besides this, this patch includes other two changes: 1. remove unnecessary type cast in dmar_table_detect() 2. type cast from acpi_dmar_header to acpi_dmar_hardware_unit directly Signed-off-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiy...@gmail.com> --- drivers/iommu/dmar.c | 15 ++++----------- include/linux/dmar.h | 2 +- 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/iommu/dmar.c b/drivers/iommu/dmar.c index 80e3c17..d6dd23f 100644 --- a/drivers/iommu/dmar.c +++ b/drivers/iommu/dmar.c @@ -292,8 +292,7 @@ static int dmar_pci_bus_add_dev(struct dmar_pci_notify_info *info) if (dmaru->include_all) continue; - drhd = container_of(dmaru->hdr, - struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit, header); + drhd = (struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit *)dmaru->hdr; ret = dmar_insert_dev_scope(info, (void *)(drhd + 1), ((void *)drhd) + drhd->header.length, dmaru->segment, @@ -390,7 +389,6 @@ static int dmar_parse_one_drhd(struct acpi_dmar_header *header, void *arg) * If header is allocated from slab by ACPI _DSM method, we need to * copy the content because the memory buffer will be freed on return. */ - dmaru->hdr = (void *)(dmaru + 1); memcpy(dmaru->hdr, header, header->length); dmaru->reg_base_addr = drhd->address; dmaru->segment = drhd->segment; @@ -529,8 +527,7 @@ static int __init dmar_table_detect(void) /* if we could find DMAR table, then there are DMAR devices */ status = acpi_get_table_with_size(ACPI_SIG_DMAR, 0, - (struct acpi_table_header **)&dmar_tbl, - &dmar_tbl_size); + &dmar_tbl, &dmar_tbl_size); if (ACPI_SUCCESS(status) && !dmar_tbl) { pr_warn("Unable to map DMAR\n"); @@ -663,9 +660,7 @@ dmar_find_matched_drhd_unit(struct pci_dev *dev) rcu_read_lock(); for_each_drhd_unit(dmaru) { - drhd = container_of(dmaru->hdr, - struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit, - header); + drhd = (struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit *)dmaru->hdr; if (dmaru->include_all && drhd->segment == pci_domain_nr(dev->bus)) @@ -693,9 +688,7 @@ static void __init dmar_acpi_insert_dev_scope(u8 device_number, struct acpi_dmar_pci_path *path; for_each_drhd_unit(dmaru) { - drhd = container_of(dmaru->hdr, - struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit, - header); + drhd = (struct acpi_dmar_hardware_unit *)dmaru->hdr; for (scope = (void *)(drhd + 1); (unsigned long)scope < ((unsigned long)drhd) + drhd->header.length; diff --git a/include/linux/dmar.h b/include/linux/dmar.h index e9bc929..5f6da7e 100644 --- a/include/linux/dmar.h +++ b/include/linux/dmar.h @@ -52,7 +52,6 @@ struct dmar_dev_scope { extern struct acpi_table_header *dmar_tbl; struct dmar_drhd_unit { struct list_head list; /* list of drhd units */ - struct acpi_dmar_header *hdr; /* ACPI header */ u64 reg_base_addr; /* register base address*/ struct dmar_dev_scope *devices;/* target device array */ int devices_cnt; /* target device count */ @@ -60,6 +59,7 @@ struct dmar_drhd_unit { u8 ignored:1; /* ignore drhd */ u8 include_all:1; struct intel_iommu *iommu; + struct acpi_dmar_header hdr[0];/* ACPI header */ }; struct dmar_pci_path { -- 2.5.0
