Re: [PATCH v6 06/11] powerpc/mm/book3s64/hash: Use functions to track lockless pgtbl walks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 





Le 06/02/2020 à 04:08, Leonardo Bras a écrit :
Applies the new tracking functions to all hash-related functions that do
lockless pagetable walks.

hash_page_mm: Adds comment that explain that there is no need to
local_int_disable/save given that it is only called from DataAccess
interrupt, so interrupts are already disabled.

local_irq_{save,restore} is already inside {begin,end}_lockless_pgtbl_walk,
so there is no need to repeat it here.

Variable that saves the	irq mask was renamed from flags to irq_mask so it
doesn't lose meaning now it's not directly passed to local_irq_* functions.

Comments formatting is not in line with Linux kernel rules. Should be no text on the first /* line.

I think it would be better to not use __begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk() directly but keep it in a single place, and define something like begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk_noirq() similar to begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk()

  	ptep = find_linux_pte(pgdir, ea, &is_thp, &hugeshift);

What's the point in changing the name of this label ? There is only one label, why polute the function with so huge name ?

For me, everyone understand what 'bail' means. Unneccessary changes should be avoided. If you really really want to do it, it should be another patch.

See kernel codying style, chapter 'naming':
"LOCAL variable names should be short". This also applies to labels.

"C is a Spartan language, and so should your naming be. Unlike Modula-2 and Pascal programmers, C programmers do not use cute names like ThisVariableIsATemporaryCounter. A C programmer would call that variable tmp, which is much easier to write, and not the least more difficult to understand."
