Urgh... who thought embedding control flow directive like continue inside a macro was a good idea? :( > -void __init acpi_initrd_override_find(void *data, size_t size) > +void __init acpi_initrd_override_find(void *data, size_t size, bool is_phys) Is it really necessary to make the function take both virtual and physical addresses? Can't we just make the function take phys_addr_t and update everyone to call with physaddr? Also @is_phys isn't simple address switch. It also changes error reporting. If you're gonna keep @is_phys, let's at least write up a function comment explaining what's going on and why we need it. But, really, if at all possible, let's change the function to take single type of argument and predicate error message printing on something else (e.g. early printk initialized or whatever). > @@ -654,11 +677,14 @@ void __init acpi_initrd_override_copy(void) > arch_reserve_mem_area(acpi_tables_addr, all_tables_size); > > for (no = 0; no < table_nr; no++) { > + unsigned long phys_addr = (unsigned long)early_initrd_files[no].data; Can we please use phys_addr_t for physical addresses? > unsigned long size = early_initrd_files[no].size; > > + q = early_ioremap(phys_addr, size); > + pr_info("%4.4s ACPI table found in initrd [%#010lx-%#010lx]\n", > + ((struct acpi_table_header *)q)->signature, > + phys_addr, phys_addr + size - 1); Maybe putting pr_info after ioremapping both p and q would be easier on the eyes? > p = early_ioremap(acpi_tables_addr + total_offset, size); > - q = early_ioremap((unsigned long)early_initrd_files[no].data, > - size); > memcpy(p, q, size); > early_iounmap(q, size); > early_iounmap(p, size); Thanks. -- tejun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
