Yeah, so incidentally, just before you made this suggestion yesterday, I
rearranged the files quite a bit in tip:WIP.x86/mm, and the latest naming
scheme is:
dagon:~/tip> ls -l arch/x86/mm/pat/
total 112
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 5782 Nov 21 06:41 cpa-test.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 117 Nov 21 06:41 Makefile
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 32026 Nov 21 06:41 memtype.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 1470 Nov 21 06:41 memtype.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 5003 Nov 21 06:41 memtype_interval.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 mingo mingo 56668 Nov 21 06:41 set_memory.c
I named most of the files based on the API families they are
implementing:
- memtype*.c for the <asm/memtype.h> APIs
- set_memory.c for the <asm/set_memory.h> APIs.
Is this close to what you had in mind?
( Note: cpa-test.c is a leftover that should probably be renamed to
set_memory_test.c, with a few explicit set_memory() API tests added as
well, not just the internal change_page_attribute() tests. )
I also started the process of tidying up the API namespace which is a bit
of a historical accident as well, and I'm done with most of the memtype
funtions, which are now:
reserve_memtype() => memtype_reserve()
free_memtype() => memtype_free()
kernel_map_sync_memtype() => memtype_kernel_map_sync()
io_reserve_memtype() => memtype_reserve_io()
io_free_memtype() => memtype_free_io()
memtype_check_insert() => memtype_check_insert()
memtype_erase() => memtype_erase()
memtype_lookup() => memtype_lookup()
memtype_copy_nth_element() => memtype_copy_nth_element()
This work is in WIP.x86/mm:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git WIP.x86/mm
f53ee099dfac: x86/mm: Tabulate the page table encoding definitions

84285e92bb7a: x86/mm/pat: Standardize on memtype_*() prefix for APIs
b2c61e70ccca: x86/mm/pat: Move the memtype related files to arch/x86/mm/pat/

2418ac70a9c1: x86/mm/pat: Convert the PAT tree to a generic interval tree
But there's still quite some work left. I'll send out a series once I
think the end result is a coherent whole.
Davidlohr's four patches are intended for v5.5, the remaining patches
from me on top of his work will probably need a bit more testing.
Thanks,
Ingo
