So common checks obviously make sense, but I really hate the stupid multiplexer. Having one well-documented helper per feature is much easier to follow. > +#define PATTR_MEM_ENCRYPT 0 /* Encrypted memory */ > +#define PATTR_HOST_MEM_ENCRYPT 1 /* Host encrypted memory */ > +#define PATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT 2 /* Guest encrypted memory */ > +#define PATTR_GUEST_PROT_STATE 3 /* Guest encrypted state */ The kerneldoc comments on these individual helpers will give you plenty of space to properly document what they indicate and what a (potential) caller should do based on them. Something the above comments completely fail to. _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
