Currently the struct uverbs_obj_type stored in the ib_uobject is part of the .rodata segment of the module that defines the object. This is a problem if drivers define new uapi objects as we will be left with a dangling pointer after device disassociation. Switch the uverbs_obj_type for struct uverbs_api_object, which is allocated memory that is part of the uverbs_api and is guaranteed to always exist. Further this moves the 'type_class' into this memory which means access to the IDR/FD function pointers is also guaranteed. Drivers cannot define new types. This makes it safe to continue to use all uobjects, including driver defined ones, after disassociation. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com> |
