Hi Peter,

thanks for having a look, your feedback is always appreciated.

Plese see my answers inline.

I disagree on this, the strscpy size param is meant to represent the max
size of the dest buffer and here the destination buffer 'a->name' is the
string buffer publicly exposed by include/linux/scmi_protocol.h:scmi_sensor_axis_info
whose size is SCMI_MAX_STR_SIZE.

Yes, indeed this behaviour was deliberate so as to keep this code
simpler while addressing some tricky definitions in the spec.
(not so short explanation follows :P)

SENSOR_AXIS_DESCRIPTION_GET is a command that, issued against a specific
sensor, return a list of axes descriptors for that sensor and such
descriptors in turn also include the flag you're mentioning that states
if a specific ax does support an extended name or not that will have to
be fetched with SENSOR_AXIS_GET_NAME.

BUT the SENSOR_AXIS_GET_NAME command is a multi-part command issued
against a specific sensor to retrieve the list of all the axes extended
names for that sensor, NOT to retrieve a single ax extended name, so I
cannot really check each ax extended name support before issuing the
commmand and, even though weird, the axes could have different support
with some of them supporting the extended name while some other don't:
as a consequence my take about this was that the platform would reply
anyway but only with the list of axes having an extended name (possibly
a subset of all the axes).

What could be missing in this context it's the handling of the case in
which all axes does NOT support extended names where probably the platform
won't even answer my request. (unsupported even if PROTO > 3.0)

Moreover even tracking this per-ax support while iterating the replies
would have made more complex some of the logic with anyway at the same
time hitting all the limitations explained above.

In this context, it seemed to me simpler (and a good trade-off) to issue
anyway the command while checking only for the protocol version and
accepting thatSENSOR_AXIS_GET_NAME could fail because unsupported
by all the axes, with the result of leaving the ax->name string content
filled with the short name previously retrieved.

Assuming that my blabbing above is acceptable, what IS indeed wrong
(reviewig this patch) is that the any 'acceptable' failure as depicted
above is not properly ignored in fact. I'll post a fix on top like:

----

Moreover even the parsing logic for the SENSOR_AXIS_GET_NAME command has to
be sligthly reviewed to address the fact that the list of returned axes
extended names is incomplete so the returned axes won't necessarily be
returned in order (i.e. I'll have to check 'axis_d' in the SENSOR_AXIS_NAME_GET
replies to look up the proper ax descriptor.).
I'll post this as a distinct fix.

Does all of this make sense/seems reasonable ?

Thanks for the review again,
Cristian
