Included here are three changes:
- pwm: Ensure ioctl() returns a negative errno on error
This affects two ioctls on /dev/pwmchipX where the return value of
copy_to_user() was passed to userspace. This is fixed to return
-EFAULT now instead.
You might argue that this is an ABI change, but I still think it's
sensible to be fixed because a) other exit paths already return
-EFAULT so userspace must be aware of this return value; b) the
interface is somewhat new (commit v6.17-rc1~181^2~35 ("pwm: Add
support for pwmchip devices for faster and easier userspace access"))
and the only known user is libpwm which relies on the fixed
semantics (and uses the ioctl correctly and thus doesn't trigger that
problematic error path); and c) it's very unlikely that
copy_to_user() fails if a moment before copy_from_user() on the same
memory chunk succeeded.
- pwm: max7360: Populate missing .sizeof_wfhw in max7360_pwm_ops
This fixes an oversight in commit v6.18-rc1~168^2~3^2~6 which added
support for the max7360 driver. There is no user-visible effect
because the .sizeof_wfhw member is just a safe guard that the memory
provided by the core is big enough. While it currently is big enough
and there is no reason to assume that will change, doing that
correctly is necessary.
- MAINTAINERS: Add myself as reviewer for PWM rust drivers
"Myself" here is Michal Wilczynski who cares for the Rust parts of
the pwm subsystem. Several of the patches sent recently for the (for
now) only Rust pwm driver did not add Michal to Cc which resulted in
the patches waiting for review as I thought Michal would care but he
wasn't aware of them.
