I did not actually suggest dropping the old parameters. I said I wasn't sure the user confusion of deprecating the old names in favor of new names was worth the trouble. I suspect we should just *add* one new parameter and leave the old ones unchanged. > I would find it cleaner to just do a single patch without the > depreciation, as both patches change the same things, doubling up on the > number of patch lines.

What I actually meant was "you correctly posted v2 based on my master branch at the time, and since my master branch has moved from v5.0-rc1 to v5.1-rc1 since your v2 post, I'll do trivial fixes for that." But since you're posting v3 *today*, and my master branch has been at v5.1-rc1 since March 18, you should rebase your patches on top of that branch first. > Nicholas Johnson (5): > PCI: Consider alignment of hot-added bridges when distributing > available resources > PCI: Cleanup comments in setup-bus.c to meet kernel coding style > guidelines We also talked about moving trivial cleanups to be at the end. The important things should be first in the series, with cleanups at the end. That way backporting is easier, since people may want to backport only the real fixes, ignoring things like typo fixes. > PCI: Fix serious bug when sizing bridges with additional size > PCI: modify kernel parameters to differentiate between MMIO and > MMIO_PREF sizes > PCI: Rename pci=hpiosize,hpmemsize,hpmemprefsize to be more readable > > .../admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt | 7 +- > drivers/pci/pci.c | 18 +- > drivers/pci/setup-bus.c | 512 +++++++++--------- > include/linux/pci.h | 3 +- > 4 files changed, 287 insertions(+), 253 deletions(-) > > -- > 2.20.1 >
