Well, what I was more aiming to get at was that to someone not
intimately familiar with the PECI protocol it's not immediately obvious
from the code that it in fact implements a ping (there's no 'msg->cmd =
PECI_CMD_PING' or anything), so I was hoping for something that would
just make that slightly more explicit.

As is it's certainly not terribly complicated in an absolute sense, but
comparatively speaking the cleanup path for a single allocation is still
simpler, no?
Making it more efficient would definitely be a nice benefit too (perhaps
a more significant one) -- in a typical deployment I'd guess this code
path will see roughly socket_count + total_core_count executions per
second? On a big multi-socket system that could end up being a
reasonably large number (>100), so while it may not end up as a major
hot spot in a system-wide profile, it seems like it might be worth
having it do 1/3 as many allocations if it's reasonably easy to do.
(And while I don't think the kernel is generally at fault for this, from
what I've seen of OpenBMC as a whole I think it might benefit from a bit
more overall frugality with CPU cycles.)
As for a fixed max request size and inlined buffers, I definitely
understand not wanting to put a cap on that in the generic PECI core --
and actually, looking at the peci-npcm code from previous iterations of
the PECI patchset, it looks like the Nuvoton hardware has significantly
larger size limits (127 bytes if I'm reading things right) that might be
a bit bulky for on-stack allocation. So while that's appealing
efficiency-wise and (IMO) aesthetically, perhaps it's not ultimately
real viable.
Hmm, though (thinking out loud) I suppose we could also get down to a
zero-allocation common case by having the driver hold on to a request
struct and reuse it across transfers, given that they're all serialized
by a mutex anyway?
