During developing a kunit test case for region_intersects(), some fake
resources need to be inserted into iomem_resource. To do that, a
resource hole needs to be found first in iomem_resource.
However, alloc_free_mem_region() cannot work for iomem_resource now.
Because the start address to check cannot be 0 to detect address
wrapping 0 in gfr_continue(), while iomem_resource.start == 0. To
make alloc_free_mem_region() works for iomem_resource, gfr_start() is
changed to avoid to return 0 even if base->start == 0. We don't need
to check 0 as start address.

You should add a comment here. But I do find what you are doing here
quite confusing.

Sure. And sorry for confusing words.

Above you write: "We don't need to check 0 as start address." -- why?
To make the code extra confusing? :)

After the change, we will not return "0" from gfr_start(). So we cannot
check "0" as start address. And I think nobody need to check "0", so it
should be OK to do that.

/* Never return address 0, because XXX. */
if (!base->start)
return align;
return ALIGN(base->start, align);


And i still haven't understood XXX. For whom exactly is address 0 a problem?

Because the following lines in gfr_continue()

/*
* In the ascend case be careful that the last increment by
* @size did not wrap 0.
*/
return addr > addr - size &&
addr <= min_t(resource_size_t, base->end,
(1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1);

If addr == 0, then addr < addr - size. gfr_continue() will return
false, and we will not check any address.

Thanks, that makes things cleaner. I think it might be better to just rework
the retying logic, to detect wraps based on the old and new address. That
would require a bit more work, something like that should probably handle all
possible corner case. Dan wrote that code, so I'll leave it up to him to decide
how to handle that :)
