39## [0.9.1] - 2024-09-07
40
41### Changed
42
431. Moved evolutions intended for v0.9.0 into place
44
45   Evolutions for the release have been moved from `evolutions/current` to
46   `evolutions/v0.9.1`. Library users can apply them to migrate off of
47   deprecated APIs.
48
49## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
50
51### Added
52
531. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
542. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
553. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
564. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
575. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
586. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
597. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
608. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
619. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
62
63   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
64   `Deprecated` section below
65
6610. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
67
68    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
69    below
70
71### Changed
72
731. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
742. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
753. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
764. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
77
78   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
79   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
80   parameter `previous_op_state`.
81
825. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
83
84### Deprecated
85
861. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
87
88   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
89   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
90   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
91   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
92   `evolutions/`
93
94   The deprecated functions:
95
96   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
97   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
98   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
99   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
100   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
101   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
102   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
103   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
104   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
105   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
106   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
107   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
108   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
109   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
110   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
111   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
112   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
113   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
114
115[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
116
1172. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
118
119   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
120   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
121   the message.
122
1233. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
124
125   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
126   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
127
128### Removed
129
1301. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
131
132   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
133   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
134
135### Fixed
136
1371. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict
138

3427. pdr: pldm_pdr_destroy(): Exit early if repo is NULL
3438. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
344
345   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
346   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
347   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
348   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
349   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
350
351   - pldm_entity_extract()
352   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
353   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
354   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
355   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
356   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
357   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
358   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

4722. README: Add a section on working with libpldm
4733. pdr: Introduce remote_container_id and associated APIs
4744. pdr: Add APIs for creating and locating remote PDRs
4755. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_find_last_in_range()

478
479### Changed
480
4811. include: Move installed transport.h under libpldm/
4822. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4833. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
484
485   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
486   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
487   recipe:
488
489   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
490
491   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
492   when invoking `meson setup`
493
4944. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4955. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
496
497### Deprecated
498
4991. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
500
501   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
502   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
503   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
504
505   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
506   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
507   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
508   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
509   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
510   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
511   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
512   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
513
514### Removed
515
5161. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
517
518### Fixed
519
5201. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
5212. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
5223. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
5234. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
5245. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
525
