3.2.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Jani Nikula <[email protected]> commit 5017b2851373ee15c7035151853bb1448800cae2 upstream. dmi_match() considers a substring match to be a successful match. This is not always sufficient to distinguish between DMI data for different systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition to the substring matching using strstr(). The specific use case in the i915 driver is to allow us to use an exact match for D510MO, without also incorrectly matching D510MOV: { .ident = "Intel D510MO", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"), DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"), }, } Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]> Cc: Chris Wilson <[email protected]> Cc: Cornel Panceac <[email protected]> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <[email protected]> Cc: Greg KH <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <[email protected]> --- drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c | 12 +++++++++--- include/linux/mod_devicetable.h | 6 ++++-- 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c +++ b/drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c @@ -534,9 +534,15 @@ static bool dmi_matches(const struct dmi int s = dmi->matches[i].slot; if (s == DMI_NONE) break; - if (dmi_ident[s] - && strstr(dmi_ident[s], dmi->matches[i].substr)) - continue; + if (dmi_ident[s]) { + if (!dmi->matches[i].exact_match && + strstr(dmi_ident[s], dmi->matches[i].substr)) + continue; + else if (dmi->matches[i].exact_match && + !strcmp(dmi_ident[s], dmi->matches[i].substr)) + continue; + } + /* No match */ return false; } --- a/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h +++ b/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h @@ -461,7 +461,8 @@ enum dmi_field { }; struct dmi_strmatch { - unsigned char slot; + unsigned char slot:7; + unsigned char exact_match:1; char substr[79]; }; @@ -489,7 +490,8 @@ struct dmi_system_id { #define dmi_device_id dmi_system_id #endif -#define DMI_MATCH(a, b) { a, b } +#define DMI_MATCH(a, b) { .slot = a, .substr = b } +#define DMI_EXACT_MATCH(a, b) { .slot = a, .substr = b, .exact_match = 1 } #define PLATFORM_NAME_SIZE 20 #define PLATFORM_MODULE_PREFIX "platform:" -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
