[PATCH v3 0/6] gpio: acpi: modernize resource management using cleanup.h

[Marco Scardovi]

Hi Andy, Mika,
thanks for the patience: I was way too excited about my first patch on
the linux kernel and let it takes over the reasoning and I'm sorry for that.
I've moved the defines on the right places as requested and refactored the
patches to be smaller and tested the build with KASAN and kmemleak as requested
by @Mika without any visible regression as for now.

Marco Scardovi (6):
  ACPI: Move DEFINE_FREE(acpi_free) to global header
  gpiolib: Move DEFINE_FREE(free_gpio_desc) to driver header
  gpio: acpi: ignore out-of-range pins in acpi_gpiochip_alloc_event()
  gpio: acpi: use guard(mutex) for conn_lock
  gpio: acpi: use cleanup.h for automated resource deallocation
  gpio: acpi: sort header inclusion alphabetically

You MUST provide:
- DCO (Developer certificate of origin)
- commit messages

Without that, it's no go *at all*.

[PATCH v4 1/6] ACPI: Move DEFINE_FREE(acpi_free) to global header

[Marco Scardovi]

Introduce DEFINE_FREE(acpi_free) in include/linux/acpi.h to provide
a standard way to perform automated memory deallocation for ACPI
objects. This enables the use of the __free(acpi_free) attribute
wherever ACPI_FREE() is required.

[PATCH v4 2/6] gpiolib: Move DEFINE_FREE(free_gpio_desc) to driver header

[Marco Scardovi]

Define the free_gpio_desc cleanup handler in include/linux/gpio/driver.h.
This allows drivers to use the __free(free_gpio_desc) attribute for
automated deallocation of GPIO descriptors obtained via
gpiochip_request_own_desc().

[PATCH v4 3/6] gpio: acpi: ignore out-of-range pins in acpi_gpiochip_alloc_event()

[Marco Scardovi]

Add a check to verify that the pin index retrieved from ACPI is within
the valid range for the GPIO chip (pin < chip->ngpio). If the pin is
out of range, an error is logged and the function returns early to
avoid invalid memory access.

[PATCH v4 4/6] gpio: acpi: use guard(mutex) for conn_lock

[Marco Scardovi]

Replace manual mutex_lock() and mutex_unlock() calls in
acpi_gpio_adr_space_handler() with the guard(mutex) helper. This
ensures the conn_lock is automatically released when exiting the
scope, preventing potential deadlocks and simplifying the logic.

[PATCH v4 5/6] gpio: acpi: use cleanup.h for automated resource deallocation

[Marco Scardovi]

Refactor acpi_gpiochip_alloc_event() and acpi_gpio_adr_space_handler()
to use the __free() macro for GPIO descriptors and ACPI resources.
This simplifies error handling by removing manual cleanup calls and
reducing the need for goto labels.

Reorder the #include directives in gpiolib-acpi-core.c to follow
alphabetical order. This improves code readability and ensures
consistency with kernel coding style for header management.

Note, cover letter is not just for a simple comment like the above, it's mainly
for the overview of the series as a whole, what it doing and why. No need to
resend a series, just try to write down one in a reply to this message.

Also this is v4 of the series, you need to provide a changelog for each delta
between two sequential versions (here we expect to see a v1->v2, v2->v3, and
v3->v4).

This goes a bit overboard because the objects needing ACPI_FREE() for
freeing are most of the time allocated in a way that precludes using
__free().

Note that you are expected to initialize the pointer at declaration
time when using __free() and that cannot be done with objects
allocated by ACPICA code in many cases.

You are not supposed to mix up cleanup.h stuff with gotos.

Nope, that's not how you use __free().
