I think 'offset' should be 64bit instead so > that larger offsets can be used. It's not that simple. 'offset' used as a 'off_t' and 'ssize_t' all over the place in the state framework. On 32bit architecture both are defined as 'long' or 'int'. Both are 32 bit types so changing 'offset' to a 64bit type here doesn't really help. On 64bit architectures 'off_t' and 'ssize_t' are both 'long' which is a 64bit type. We still need to cast from unsigned to signed, but I don't think that's really a problem here. So it works for large offsets on 64bit architectures as it is, and it can be extended to work in 32bit architectures without changing the binding. But doing that requires larger code changes. And I have no way to test those. > > + if (ret) { > > + dev_err(&state->dev, "'backend-offset' property undefined\n"); > > + goto out_release_state; > > + } > > + offset = off; > > What about the size of the state partition?

The code explicitly checks if the size is specified and skips any range checks if it's not. From what I can tell, it has been like that from the beginning. If that's not ok, then I could add a 'backend-size' property, or do you have something else in mind?
