Re: [PATCH v2] powerpc/mm: move warning from resize_hpt_for_hotplug()

Le 08/03/2019 Ã 11:54, Laurent Vivier a ÃcritÂ:
resize_hpt_for_hotplug() reports a warning when it cannot
resize the hash page table ("Unable to resize hash page
table to target order") but in some cases it's not a problem
and can make user thinks something has not worked properly.

This patch moves the warning to arch_remove_memory() to
only report the problem when it is needed.

The || should go on the line above and the two (target_hpt... should be aligned, and the () after the < are superflous.

And indeed, we should (in another patch) rename 'target_hpt_shift' with a shorter name, this would avoid multiple lines.

Ref https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html#naming :

LOCAL variable names should be short, and to the point. If you have some random integer loop counter, it should probably be called i. Calling it loop_counter is non-productive, if there is no chance of it being mis-understood. Similarly, tmp can be just about any type of variable that is used to hold a temporary value.

If you are afraid to mix up your local variable names, you have another problem, which is called the function-growth-hormone-imbalance syndrome. See chapter 6 (Functions).
