SubjectRe: [PATCH 4/6] x86, mm: make split_mem_range() more easy to read

It's maybe slightly easier to read, but it's still completely unreadable
garbage.

Not your fault, it was garbage before.

But refining garbage still results in garbage. Just the smell is slightly
different.

Why?

1) Doing all the calculations PFN based is just a pointless
indirection. Just look at all the rounding magic and back and forth
conversions.

All of that can be done purely address/size based which makes the code
truly readable.

2) The 5(3) sections are more or less copied code with a few changes of
constants, except for the first section (A) which has an extra quirk
for 32bit. Plus all the 64bit vs. 32bit #ifdeffery which is not making
it any better.

This copied mess can be avoided by using helper functions and proper
loops.

3) During the bootmem phase the code tries to preserve large mappings
_AFTER_ splitting them up and then it tries to merge the resulting
overlaps.

This is completely backwards because the expansion of the range can be
tried right away when then mapping of a large page is attempted. Surely
not with the current mess, but with a proper loop based approach it can
be done nicely.

Btw, there is a bug in that expansion code which could result in
undoing the enforced 4K mapping of the lower 2M/4M range on 32bit. It's
probably not an issue in practice because the low range is usually not
contiguous. But it works by chance not by design.

4) The debug print string retrieval function is just silly.

The logic for rewriting this is pretty obvious:

while (addr < end) {
setup_mr(mr, addr, end);
for_each_map_size(1G, 2M, 4K) {
if (try_map(mr, size))
break;
}
addr = mr->end;
}

setup_mr() takes care of the 32bit 0-2/4M range by limiting the
range and setting the allowed size mask in mr to 4k only.

try_map() does:

1) Try to expand the range to preserve large pages during bootmem

2) If the range start is not aligned, limit the end to the large
size boundary, so the next lower map size will only cover the
unaligned portion.

3) If the range end is not aligned, fit as much large
size as possible.

No magic A-E required, because it just falls into place naturally and
the expansion is done at the right place and not after the fact.

Find a mostly untested patch which implements this below. I just booted it
in a 64bit guest and it did not explode.

It removes 55 lines of code instead of adding 35 and reduces the binary
size by 408 bytes on 64bit and 128 bytes on 32bit.

Note, it's a combo of changes (including your patch 1/6) and needs to be
split up. It would be nice if you have time to split it up into separate
patches, add proper changelogs and test the heck out of it on both 32 and
64 bit. If you don't have time, please let me know.

Thanks,

tglx
