The arm_smccc_1_1_{smc,hvc}() macros for inline invocation take a res pointer as their final argument, matching the out-of-line SMCCC invocation functions. However, the inline invocation macros are variadic, so it's easy to mess up passsing the correct parameters.passingquoted
Instead, let's make them value-returning, which is less confusing.I'm not completely sure I agree with you here because, as far as I can tell, it means that we have a different calling convention for 1.0 (i.e. arm_smccc_smc()) and 1.1 (i.e. arm_smccc_1_1_smc). Can we do the same for 1.0 as well or am I missing something?
I will take a look; I think the QC quirk is the only thing that gets in the way. Mark. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
