20### Added
21
221. pdr: Introduce pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()
23
24### Changed
25
261. pdr: Allow record_handle to be NULL for pldm_pdr_add_check()
272. transport: pldm_transport_poll(): Adjust return value semantics
28
29### Deprecated
30
311. state-set: Enum pldm_state_set_operational_fault_status_values
32
33   The enum operational_fault_status is defined with wrong members and will
34   eventually be replaced with the correct members. Any uses of
35   pldm_state_set_operational_fault_status_values members should move to
36   equivalent pldm_state_set_operational_stress_status_values members if needed.
37
382. platform: Struct field name in fru_record_set PDR
39
40   References to entity_instance_num should be changed to entity_instance
41
423. platform: Struct field name in numeric sensor value PDR

868. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
87
88   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
89   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
90   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
91   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
92   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
93
94   - pldm_entity_extract()
95   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
96   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
97   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
98   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
99   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
100   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
101   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()
102   - pldm_pdr_get_repo_size()
103   - pldm_pdr_record_is_remote()

10812. pdr: pldm_entity_association_tree_visit(): Document preconditions
10913. pdr: pldm_entity_association_tree_visit(): Exit early on failure
11014. pdr: pldm_entity_association_tree_destroy(): Exit early on bad argument
11115. pdr: pldm_entity_get_num_children(): Return zero for invalid arguments
11216. pdr: pldm_is_current_parent_child(): Return false for invalid arguments

230   recipe:

2421. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
243
244   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
245   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
246   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
247
248   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
249   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
250   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
251   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
252   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
253   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
254   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
255   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
