19
20## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
21
22### Added
23
241. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
252. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
263. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
274. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
285. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
296. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
307. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
318. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
329. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
33
34   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
35   `Deprecated` section below
36
3710. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
38
39    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
40    below
41
42### Changed
43
441. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
452. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
463. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
474. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
48
49   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
50   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
51   parameter `previous_op_state`.
52
535. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
54
55### Deprecated
56
571. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
58
59   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
60   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
61   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
62   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
63   `evolutions/`
64
65   The deprecated functions:
66
67   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
68   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
69   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
70   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
71   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
72   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
73   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
74   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
75   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
76   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
77   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
78   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
79   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
80   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
81   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
82   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
83   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
84   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
85
86[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
87
882. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
89
90   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
91   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
92   the message.
93
943. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
95
96   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
97   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
98
99### Removed
100
1011. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
102
103   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
104   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
105
106### Fixed
107
1081. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict

3137. pdr: pldm_pdr_destroy(): Exit early if repo is NULL
3148. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
315
316   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
317   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
318   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
319   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
320   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
321
322   - pldm_entity_extract()
323   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
324   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
325   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
326   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
327   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
328   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
329   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

4532. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4543. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
455
456   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
457   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
458   recipe:

460   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
461
462   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
463   when invoking `meson setup`

4654. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4665. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
467
468### Deprecated
469
4701. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
471
472   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
473   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
474   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
475
476   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
477   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
478   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
479   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
480   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
481   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
482   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
483   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
484
485### Removed
486
4871. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
488
489### Fixed
490
4911. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
4922. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
4933. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
4944. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
4955. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
