40## [0.9.1] - 2024-09-07
41
42### Changed
43
441. Moved evolutions intended for v0.9.0 into place
45
46   Evolutions for the release have been moved from `evolutions/current` to
47   `evolutions/v0.9.1`. Library users can apply them to migrate off of
48   deprecated APIs.
49
50## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
51
52### Added
53
541. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
552. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
563. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
574. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
585. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
596. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
607. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
618. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
629. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
63
64   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
65   `Deprecated` section below
66
6710. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
68
69    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
70    below
71
72### Changed
73
741. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
752. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
763. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
774. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
78
79   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
80   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
81   parameter `previous_op_state`.
82
835. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
84
85### Deprecated
86
871. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
88
89   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
90   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
91   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
92   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
93   `evolutions/`
94
95   The deprecated functions:
96
97   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
98   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
99   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
100   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
101   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
102   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
103   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
104   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
105   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
106   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
107   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
108   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
109   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
110   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
111   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
112   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
113   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
114   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
115
116[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
117
1182. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
119
120   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
121   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
122   the message.
123
1243. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
125
126   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
127   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
128
129### Removed
130
1311. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
132
133   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
134   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
135
136### Fixed
137
1381. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict
139

3448. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
345
346   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
347   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
348   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
349   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
350   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
351
352   - pldm_entity_extract()
353   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
354   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
355   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
356   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
357   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
358   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
359   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

4732. README: Add a section on working with libpldm
4743. pdr: Introduce remote_container_id and associated APIs

480### Changed
481
4821. include: Move installed transport.h under libpldm/
4832. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4843. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
485
486   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
487   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
488   recipe:
489
490   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
491
492   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
493   when invoking `meson setup`
494
4954. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4965. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
497
498### Deprecated
499
5001. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
501
502   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
503   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
504   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
505
506   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
507   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
508   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
509   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
510   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
511   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
512   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
513   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
514
515### Removed
516
5171. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
518
519### Fixed
520
5211. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
5222. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
5233. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
5244. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
5255. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
526
