From d69d804845985c29ab5be5a4b3b1f4787893daf8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2024 14:07:37 +0200 Subject: driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const * In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct device_driver in read-only memory. Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of() calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *. For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.) That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their struct device * in read-only-memory. Cc: Rafael J.
