32## [0.9.1] - 2024-09-07
33
34### Changed
35
361. Moved evolutions intended for v0.9.0 into place
37
38   Evolutions for the release have been moved from `evolutions/current` to
39   `evolutions/v0.9.1`. Library users can apply them to migrate off of
40   deprecated APIs.
41
42## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
43
44### Added
45
461. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
472. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
483. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
494. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
505. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
516. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
527. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
538. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
549. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
55
56   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
57   `Deprecated` section below
58
5910. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
60
61    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
62    below
63
64### Changed
65
661. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
672. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
683. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
694. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
70
71   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
72   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
73   parameter `previous_op_state`.
74
755. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
76
77### Deprecated
78
791. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
80
81   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
82   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
83   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
84   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
85   `evolutions/`
86
87   The deprecated functions:
88
89   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
90   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
91   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
92   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
93   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
94   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
95   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
96   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
97   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
98   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
99   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
100   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
101   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
102   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
103   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
104   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
105   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
106   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
107
108[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
109
1102. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
111
112   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
113   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
114   the message.
115
1163. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
117
118   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
119   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
120
121### Removed
122
1231. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
124
125   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
126   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
127
128### Fixed
129
1301. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict

3357. pdr: pldm_pdr_destroy(): Exit early if repo is NULL
3368. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
337
338   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
339   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
340   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
341   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
342   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
343
344   - pldm_entity_extract()
345   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
346   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
347   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
348   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
349   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
350   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
351   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

4652. README: Add a section on working with libpldm
4663. pdr: Introduce remote_container_id and associated APIs
4674. pdr: Add APIs for creating and locating remote PDRs
4685. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_find_last_in_range()

4707. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_find_container_id_range_exclude()
471
472### Changed
473
4741. include: Move installed transport.h under libpldm/
4752. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4763. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
477
478   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
479   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
480   recipe:
481
482   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
483
484   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
485   when invoking `meson setup`
486
4874. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4885. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
489
490### Deprecated
491
4921. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
493
494   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
495   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
496   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
497
498   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
499   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
500   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
501   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
502   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
503   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
504   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
505   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
506
507### Removed
508
5091. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
510
511### Fixed
512
5131. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
5142. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
5153. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
5164. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
5175. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
518
