31## [0.9.1] - 2024-09-07
32
33### Changed
34
351. Moved evolutions intended for v0.9.0 into place
36
37   Evolutions for the release have been moved from `evolutions/current` to
38   `evolutions/v0.9.1`. Library users can apply them to migrate off of
39   deprecated APIs.
40
41## [0.9.0] - 2024-09-07
42
43### Added
44
451. base: Define macros for reserved TIDs
462. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_contained_entity_to_remote_pdr()
473. pdr: Add pldm_entity_association_pdr_create_new()
484. platform: Define macros for the responded transferflags
495. pdr: Add pldm_pdr_get_terminus_handle() API
506. pdr: Add related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
517. fw_update: Add encode req & decode resp for get_downstream_fw_params
528. platform: Add decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
539. decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()
54
55   Replaces decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp() as discussed in the
56   `Deprecated` section below
57
5810. decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()
59
60    Replaces decode_get_pdr_resp() as discussed in the `Deprecated` section
61    below
62
63### Changed
64
651. pdr: Stabilise related decode_entity_auxiliary_names_pdr() APIs
662. platform: Rework decode/encode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
673. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_message_poll_event_data() APIs
684. ABI break for decode_sensor_op_data()
69
70   Applying LIBPLDM_CC_NONNULL to the internal msgbuf APIs caused
71   abi-compliance-checker to flag a change in the register containing the
72   parameter `previous_op_state`.
73
745. platform: Stabilise decode_pldm_platform_cper_event() API
75
76### Deprecated
77
781. Rename and deprecate functions with the `_check` suffix
79
80   All library function return values always need to be checked. The `_check`
81   suffix is redundant, so remove it. Migration to the non-deprecated
82   equivalents without the `_check` suffix can be performed using
83   `scripts/ apply-renames` and the [clang-rename][] configurations under
84   `evolutions/`
85
86   The deprecated functions:
87
88   - `get_fru_record_by_option_check()`
89   - `pldm_bios_table_append_pad_checksum_check()`
90   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num_check()`
91   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()`
92   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num_check()`
93   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode_check()`
94   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_integer_encode_check()`
95   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length_check()`
96   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode_check()`
97   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_enum_check()`
98   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_integer_check()`
99   - `pldm_bios_table_attr_value_entry_encode_string_check()`
100   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()`
101   - `pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode_check()`
102   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_check()`
103   - `pldm_entity_association_pdr_add_from_node_check()`
104   - `pldm_pdr_add_check()`
105   - `pldm_pdr_add_fru_record_set_check()`
106
107[clang-rename]: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html
108
1092. `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp()`
110
111   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_repository_info_resp_safe()` which
112   eliminates the opportunity for buffer overruns when extracting objects from
113   the message.
114
1153. `decode_get_pdr_resp()`
116
117   Users should move to `decode_get_pdr_resp_safe()` which reduces the
118   invocation tedium and improves memory safety over `decode_get_pdr_resp()`.
119
120### Removed
121
1221. IBM OEM header compatibility symlinks.
123
124   Anyone left using the deprecated paths can migrate using the coccinelle patch
125   at `evolutions/current/oem-ibm-header-compat.cocci`.
126
127### Fixed
128
1291. requester: instance-id: Release read lock on conflict

3347. pdr: pldm_pdr_destroy(): Exit early if repo is NULL
3358. pdr: Document preconditions for trivial accessor functions
336
337   A trivial accessor function is one that exposes properties of an object in a
338   way can't result in an error, beyond passing an invalid argument to the
339   function. For APIs meeting this definition we define a precondition that
340   struct pointers must point to valid objects to avoid polluting the function
341   prototypes. The following APIs now have this precondition explicitly defined:
342
343   - pldm_entity_extract()
344   - pldm_entity_get_parent()
345   - pldm_entity_is_exist_parent()
346   - pldm_entity_is_node_parent()
347   - pldm_is_current_parent_child
348   - pldm_is_empty_entity_assoc_tree()
349   - pldm_pdr_get_record_count()
350   - pldm_pdr_get_record_handle()

471### Changed
472
4731. include: Move installed transport.h under libpldm/
4742. libpldm: Explicit deprecated, stable and testing ABI classes
4753. meson: Reduce strength of oem-ibm requirements from enabled to allowed
476
477   The `oem-ibm` feature is now enabled by the default meson configuration, for
478   CI purposes. `oem-ibm` is still disabled by default in the `libpldm` bitbake
479   recipe:
480
481   <https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/blob/master/meta-phosphor/recipes-phosphor/libpldm/libpldm_git.bb#L10>
482
483   To disable `oem-ibm` in your development builds, pass `-Doem-ibm=disabled`
484   when invoking `meson setup`
485
4864. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string_check()
4875. bios_table: Relax pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls_check()
488
489### Deprecated
490
4911. bios_table: Deprecate APIs with arguments sanitized using assert()
492
493   C provides enough foot-guns without us encoding them into library APIs.
494   Specifically, deprecate the following in favour of their `*_check()` variants
495   which ensure assertions won't fail or otherwise invoke UB:
496
497   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_encode()
498   - pldm_bios_table_string_entry_decode_string()
499   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_encode()
500   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_num()
501   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_def_num()
502   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_enum_decode_pv_hdls()
503   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_encode()
504   - pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_decode_def_string_length()
505
506### Removed
507
5081. libpldm: Remove the requester-api option
509
510### Fixed
511
5121. requester: Make pldm_open() return existing fd
5132. transport: Prevent sticking in waiting for response
5143. transport: Match on response in pldm_transport_send_recv_msg()
5154. requester: Add check before accessing hdr in pldm_recv()
5165. bios_table: pldm_bios_table_attr_entry_string_info_check() NULL deref
