Remove a redundant self assignment of table-&gt;nr_entries, it does
nothing and is an artifact of code simplification re-work.

What looked like a straightforward conversion from printk(KERN_DEBUG, ...)
to pr_debug() broke the boot log output:

  DMI:    /M57SLI-S4, BIOS FF 01/24/2008
 -e820: update [mem 0x00000000-0x00000fff] usable ==&gt; reserved
 -e820: remove [mem 0x000a0000-0x000fffff] usable
 +usable ==&gt; reserved
 +usable
  e820: last_pfn = 0x230000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000

 ...

  x86/PAT: Configuration [0-7]: WB  WC  UC- UC  WB  WC  UC- WT
 -e820: update [mem 0xd0000000-0xffffffff] usable ==&gt; reserved
 +usable ==&gt; reserved

i.e. spurious (and nonsensical) kernel log entries were created...

We need a pr_debug_and_I_mean_it() function which does nothing but
printk(KERN_DEBUG...

 - Remove the now unnecessary __e820__update_table() wrappery

 - Move statics out from function scope, to make the logic clearer

 - Rename local variables to be more in line with the rest of 820.c

 - Remove unnecessary local variables: old_nr, *nr_entries

No change in functionality.

<title>x86/boot/e820: Separate the E820 ABI structures from the in-kernel structures</title>
<updated>2017-01-29T12:39:32Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=7410aa1ca377aa8c5ed340647b5228e7b5d0494a'/>
<id>urn:sha1:7410aa1ca377aa8c5ed340647b5228e7b5d0494a</id>
<content type='text'>
Linus pointed out that relying on the compiler to pack structures with
enums is fragile not just for the kernel, but for external tooling as
well which might rely on our UAPI headers.

So separate the two from each other: introduce 'struct boot_e820_entry',
which is the boot protocol entry format.

This actually simplifies the code, as e820__update_table() is now never
called directly with boot protocol table entries - we can rely on
append_e820_table() and do a e820__update_table() call afterwards.

( This will allow further simplifications of __e820__update_table(),
  but that will be done in a separate patch. )

This change also has the side effect of not modifying the bootparams structure
anymore - which might be useful for debugging. In theory we could even constify
the boot_params structure - at least from the E820 code's point of view.

Remove the uapi/asm/e820/types.h file, as it's not used anymore - all
kernel side E820 types are defined in asm/e820/types.h.

<title>x86/boot/e820: Fix and clean up e820_type switch() statements</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c5231a57eb406c70a96f8e515abc49daa0af697b</id>
<content type='text'>
A test-build of e820.o with -Wswitch-enum shows the following warnings:

  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: In function ‘e820_type_to_string’:
  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:965:2: warning: enumeration value ‘E820_TYPE_RESERVED’ not handled in switch [-Wswitch-enum]
    switch (entry-&gt;type) {
    ^

  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: In function ‘e820_type_to_iomem_type’:
  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:979:2: warning: enumeration value ‘E820_TYPE_RESERVED’ not handled in switch [-Wswitch-enum]
    switch (entry-&gt;type) {
    ^

  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: In function ‘e820_type_to_iores_desc’:
  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:993:2: warning: enumeration value ‘E820_TYPE_RESERVED’ not handled in switch [-Wswitch-enum]
    switch (entry-&gt;type) {
    ^

  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: In function ‘do_mark_busy’:
  arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:1015:2: warning: enumeration value ‘E820_TYPE_RAM’ not handled in switch [-Wswitch-enum]
    switch (type) {
	    ^

Here's the four warnings:

  - The one in e820_type_to_string() is a borderline bug, we should differentiate
    known-reserved E820 types from unknown types. Fix it by printing a separate
    message for unknown E820 types.

  - The ones in e820_type_to_iomem_type(), e820_type_to_iores_desc() and
    do_mark_busy() are worth documenting, at least to the extent of
    enumerating them explicitly.

<title>x86/boot/e820: Rename the remaining E820 APIs to the e820__*() prefix</title>

<content type='text'>
Three more renames left:

   e820_end_of_ram_pfn()      =&gt;  e820__end_of_ram_pfn()
   e820_end_of_low_ram_pfn()  =&gt;  e820__end_of_low_ram_pfn()
   e820_reallocate_tables()   =&gt;  e820__reallocate_tables()

After this all E820 API calls are prefixed with "e820__", making
it much easier to grep for E820 functionality in the kernel.

No change in functionality.

<title>x86/boot/e820: Rename e820_mark_nosave_regions() to e820__register_nosave_regions()</title>

<content type='text'>
This function is a minor misnomer: it is talking about 'marking' regions
as nosave - while the hibernation API is called register_nosave_region()
and the e820_mark_nosave_regions() is a wrapper around that functionality.

So name it to be in line with the API it is derived from.

( Rename e820_mark_nvs_memory() to e820__register_nvs_regions(), for similar
  reasons. )

No change in functionality.

Change e820__mapped_any() and e820__mapped_all()'s return type and
e820__range_remove()'s check_type parameter to bool.

Propagate it into arch/x86/pci/mmconfig-shared.c as this change
affects a function signature there too.
