Actually this is linux-kernel UAPI header files, so yes, we should follow the convention there as much as possible. So far we haven't been strict about these types. But now we have a unit test for checking it, so it's a good opportunity to address the issues. thanks, Takashi > > > > > Build log: > > > > CC usr/include/sound/sof/header.h.s > > CC usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h.s > > In file included from <command-line>:32:0: > > ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:19:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ > > uint32_t magic;

For SOF we split the includes in 4 directories https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/tree/master/src/include - sof: internal includes for firmware only - ipc: definitions of the structures for information exchanged over the IPC channel. This directory is used as is by the Linux kernel and mirrored in include/sound/sof - user: definitions needed for firmware tools, e.g. to generate the image or parse the trace. this directory is not used by the Linux kernel. - kernel: definitions for the firmware format, needed for the loader to parse the firmware files. This is not directly used by applications running on the target, it really defines the content passed to the kernel with request_firmware. This directory is mirrored in the Linux include/uapi/sound/sof directory. Our goal is to minimize the differences and allow deltas e.g. for license or comments. We could add a definition for __u32 when linux is not used, I am just not sure if these two files really fall in the UAPI category and if the checks make sense.

If you can build all the SOF user space without these headers being installed to /usr/include/sound/sof/, you can move them from include/uapi/sound/sof to include/sounds/sof and leave the types unchanged.

This is probably fine in a UAPI as long as user and kernel space agree on the size of an enum, but if the same structure is used to talk to the firmware, it won't work on architectures that have a different size for the first field.

Both comments from Arnd make sense. If this header does not need to be in uapi/, moving it out is fine. But, looks like Mark has already picked up this.

When CONFIG_UAPI_HEADER_TEST=y, exported headers are compile-tested to make sure they can be included from user-space. Currently, header.h and fw.h are excluded from the test coverage. To make them join the compile-test, we need to fix the build errors attached below. For a case like this, we decided to use __u{8,16,32,64} variable types in this discussion: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/6/5/18 Build log: CC usr/include/sound/sof/header.h.s CC usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h.s In file included from <command-line>:32:0: ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:19:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t magic; /**< 'S', 'O', 'F', '\0' */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:20:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t type; /**< component specific type */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:21:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t size; /**< size in bytes of data excl. this struct */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:22:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t abi; /**< SOF ABI version */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:23:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t reserved[4]; /**< reserved for future use */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/header.h:24:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t data[0]; /**< Component data - opaque to core */ ^~~~~~~~ In file included from <command-line>:32:0: ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:49:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t size; /* bytes minus this header */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:50:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t offset; /* offset from base */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:64:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t size; /* bytes minus this header */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:65:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t num_blocks; /* number of blocks */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:73:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t file_size; /* size of file minus this header */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:74:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t num_modules; /* number of modules */ ^~~~~~~~ ./usr/include/sound/sof/fw.h:75:2: error: unknown type name ‘uint32_t’ uint32_t abi; /* version of header format */ ^~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> --- include/uapi/sound/sof/fw.h | 16 +++++++++------- include/uapi/sound/sof/header.h | 14 ++++++++------ 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1
