[PATCH 00/21] Refine memblock API

Hi, Current memblock API is quite extensive and, which is more annoying, duplicated. Except the low-level functions that allow searching for a free memory region and marking it as reserved, memblock provides three (well, two and a half) sets of functions to allocate memory. There are several

[PATCH 03/21] memblock: replace memblock_alloc_base(ANYWHERE) with memblock_phys_alloc

The calls to memblock_alloc_base(size, align, MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE) and memblock_phys_alloc(size, align) are equivalent as both try to allocate 'size' bytes with 'align' alignment anywhere in the memory and panic if hte allocation fails. The conversion is done using the following semantic

[PATCH 01/21] openrisc: prefer memblock APIs returning virtual address

The allocation of the page tables memory in openrics uses memblock_phys_alloc() and then converts the returned physical address to virtual one. Use memblock_alloc_raw() and add a panic() if the allocation fails. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport --- arch/openrisc/mm/init.c | 5 - 1 file changed,

[PATCH 04/21] memblock: drop memblock_alloc_base_nid()

The memblock_alloc_base_nid() is a oneliner wrapper for memblock_alloc_range_nid() without any side effect. Replace it's usage by the direct calls to memblock_alloc_range_nid(). Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport --- include/linux/memblock.h | 3 --- mm/memblock.c| 15 --- 2

[PATCH 02/21] powerpc: use memblock functions returning virtual address

From: Christophe Leroy Since only the virtual address of allocated blocks is used, lets use functions returning directly virtual address. Those functions have the advantage of also zeroing the block. [ MR: - updated error message in alloc_stack() to be more verbose - convereted several

[PATCH 05/21] memblock: emphasize that memblock_alloc_range() returns a physical address

Rename memblock_alloc_range() to memblock_phys_alloc_range() to emphasize that it returns a physical address. While on it, remove the 'enum memblock_flags' parameter from this function as its only user anyway sets it to MEMBLOCK_NONE, which is the default for the most of memblock allocations.

[PATCH 06/21] memblock: memblock_phys_alloc_try_nid(): don't panic

The memblock_phys_alloc_try_nid() function tries to allocate memory from the requested node and then falls back to allocation from any node in the system. The memblock_alloc_base() fallback used by this function panics if the allocation fails. Replace the memblock_alloc_base() fallback with the

[PATCH 10/21] memblock: refactor internal allocation functions

Currently, memblock has several internal functions with overlapping functionality. They all call memblock_find_in_range_node() to find free memory and then reserve the allocated range and mark it with kmemleak. However, there is difference in the allocation constraints and in fallback strategies.

[PATCH 11/21] memblock: make memblock_find_in_range_node() and choose_memblock_flags() static

These functions are not used outside memblock. Make them static. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport --- include/linux/memblock.h | 4 mm/memblock.c| 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/memblock.h b/include/linux/memblock.h index

[PATCH 12/21] arch: use memblock_alloc() instead of memblock_alloc_from(size, align, 0)

The last parameter of memblock_alloc_from() is the lower limit for the memory allocation. When it is 0, the call is equivalent to memblock_alloc(). Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport --- arch/alpha/kernel/core_cia.c | 2 +- arch/alpha/kernel/pci_iommu.c | 4 ++-- arch/alpha/kernel/setup.c | 2

[PATCH 08/21] memblock: drop __memblock_alloc_base()

The __memblock_alloc_base() function tries to allocate a memory up to the limit specified by its max_addr parameter. Depending on the value of this parameter, the __memblock_alloc_base() can is replaced with the appropriate memblock_phys_alloc*() variant. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport ---

[PATCH 14/21] ia64: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()

Add panic() calls if memblock_alloc*() returns NULL. Most of the changes are simply addition of if(!ptr) panic(); statements after the calls to memblock_alloc*() variants. Exceptions are create_mem_map_page_table() and ia64_log_init() that were slightly refactored to

[PATCH 16/21] mm/percpu: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()

[PATCH 20/21] memblock: memblock_alloc_try_nid: don't panic

As all the memblock_alloc*() users are now checking the return value and panic() in case of error, the panic() call can be removed from the core memblock allocator, namely memblock_alloc_try_nid(). Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport --- mm/memblock.c | 15 +-- 1 file changed, 5

[PATCH 19/21] treewide: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()

Add check for the return value of memblock_alloc*() functions and call panic() in case of error. The panic message repeats the one used by panicing memblock allocators with adjustment of parameters to include only relevant ones. The replacement was mostly automated with semantic patches like the
