37## [0.9.1] - 2024-09-07
38
39### Changed
40
411. Moved evolutions intended for v0.9.0 into place
42
43   Evolutions for the release have been moved from `evolutions/current` to
44   `evolutions/v0.9.1`. Library users can apply them to migrate off of
45   deprecated APIs.
46
47## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
48
49### Added
50
511. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
522. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
533. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
544. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
555. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
566. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
577. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
588. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
599. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
60
61   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
62   `Deprecated` section below
63
6410. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
65
66    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
67    below
68
69### Changed
70
711. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
722. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
733. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
744. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
75
76   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
77   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
78   parameter `previous_op_state`.
79
805. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
81
82### Deprecated
83
841. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
85
86   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
87   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
88   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
89   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
90   `evolutions/`
91
92   The deprecated functions:
93
94   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
95   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
96   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
97   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
98   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
99   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
100   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
101   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
102   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
103   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
104   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
105   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
106   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
107   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
108   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
109   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
110   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
111   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
112
113[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
114
1152. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
116
117   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
118   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
119   the message.
120
1213. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
122
123   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
124   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
125
126### Removed
127
1281. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
129
130   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
131   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
132
133### Fixed
134
1351. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict
136

3407. pdr: pldm_pdr_destroy(): Exit early if repo is NULL
3418. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
342
343   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
344   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
345   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
346   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
347   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
348
349   - pldm_entity_extract()
350   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
351   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
352   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
353   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
354   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
355   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
356   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

477### Changed
478
4791. include: Move installed transport.h under libpldm/
4802. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4813. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
482
483   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
484   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
485   recipe:
486
487   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
488
489   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
490   when invoking `meson setup`
491
4924. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4935. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
494
495### Deprecated
496
4971. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
498
499   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
500   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
501   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
502
503   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
504   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
505   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
506   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
507   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
508   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
509   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
510   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
511
512### Removed
513
5141. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
515
516### Fixed
517
5181. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
5192. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
5203. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
5214. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
5225. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
523
