EM doesn't really mean anything in the context of this code. Maybe we
could standardize the names with 'energy_scale_info' and 'esi' for
short.

These attr_ prefixes could be dropped. I will be clear from the context

Your code is correct with the current assumptions, but I think we got
the assumptions wrong, see if you agree:
My understanding of the hypercall is that it is designed around a header
+ data concept. If the header is versioned and backwards compatible,
then it means that it could increase in size. The offset to the data is
what ensures backward compatibility so that we can always access the
data, no matter what the header contains. So this leads me to conclude:
1- We should stop aborting in case the version changes. Nothing should
really break if that happens. Both the kernel and userspace would read
less data than the hypercall is returning, but that is it.
With the current design, if the hypervisor changes the header version,
the attributes stop being exposed in sysfs (because this code aborts),
which will break the userspace setup.
2- We cannot have 'data' in the struct. There is no array there. The
array is wherever the offset indicates. If the header increases in size,
then the 'data' would move forward in the buffer.
3- The concept of MAX_EM_ATTRS is misleading. It is the maximum number
of attributes that fit in the buffer *for this version of the hcall*. A
subsequent version could fit fewer attributes and our MAX_EM_ATTRS would
land us out of bounds. So the number of attributes must be defined
exclusively by num_attrs.
If we change the above, we only need to touch this code again if the
header version changes *and* we want to expose the extra information
brought by the change. An unexpected change in version should not cause
this code to fail.
So what I suggest is we keep a 'header' struct:
struct h_energy_scale_info_hdr {
__be64 num_attrs;
__be64 data_offset;
__u8 version;
};
and we define an arbitrary size for the attributes array and allocate
that much more memory:
/*
* Note: we allocate space for 10 attributes, but the HV can move the data
* array further in the buffer, so it could return fewer attributes.
*/
#define MAX_BUF_SZ (sizeof(struct h_energy_scale_info_hdr) + \
sizeof(struct energy_scale_attributes) * 10)
...
em_buf = kmalloc(MAX_BUF_SZ, GFP_KERNEL);
The suggestions from here on apply even if my analysis above is wrong:

It might be good to link this with ops_info size somehow to make sure we
don't update one without the other.

We have attr everywhere. I would use kobj_attr here to improve

t_ea = (struct energy_scale_attributes *)(t_buf + be64_to_cpu(t_buf->array_offset));
Right? If array_offset "points" to data, then data_offset would always
be 0. So there is no point doing this arithmetic.

Since the flags are well defined, we could have:
#define ESI_FLAGS_ALL PPC_BIT(0)
#define ESI_FLAGS_SINGLE PPC_BIT(1)
I assume the bits are IBM-order. But you get my point...

I'd make the FW_FEATURE_LPAR check an early return at the start of the
function.
