Does not it? If yes could you define it in a global header and use it? Maybe even replace existing comparisons in the IEEE1275 code with IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE. But probably then s/IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE/GRUB_IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE/...I wasn't sure and also had found local #defines in another .c file. #define IEEE1275_PHANDLE_INVALID ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) -1) #define IEEE1275_IHANDLE_INVALID ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) 0) #define IEEE1275_CELL_INVALID ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) -1) https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/tree/grub-core/kern/ieee1275/ieee1275.c#n24 I haven't seen the usage of -1 as TRUE in other grub files. So I could move it to a global header file assuming this is commonly used on this platform. I have only seen usage of -1 as TRUE in the SLOF firmware in this file here: https://github.com/aik/SLOF/blob/master/lib/libnvram/libnvram.code#L66 but then of course also here: https://github.com/aik/SLOF/blob/master/lib/libtpm/tcgbios.c#L965I think we should use IEEE1275_CELL_INVALID in your code. IMO the TRUE sounds a bit confusing in this context. So, I would move all these
TRUE doesn't sound like CELL_INVALID and vice versa. FALSE is defined as 0, so I think that's a better comparison (and as a value more 'common') after introducing GRUB_IEEE1275_CELL_FALSE.
three constants to a global IEEE1275 header and add "GRUB_" prefix.
I'll move those three in a separate patch.
