Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 3/4] arm64: kdump: support more than one crash kernel
 regions

Hi Mike,

This overall looks well.
Replacing memblock_cap_memory_range() with memblock_cap_memory_ranges() was what i wanted
to do in v1, sorry for don't express that clearly.

But there are some issues as below. After fixing this, it can work correctly.

1. use memblock_remove(start, size) instead of memblock_remove(start, end).

2. There is a another hidden issue. We couldn't mix __next_mem_range()(called by for_each_mem_range) operation
with remove operation because __next_mem_range() records the index of last time. If we do remove between
__next_mem_range(), the index may be mess.

Therefore, we could do remove operation after for_each_mem_range like this, solution A:
 void __init memblock_cap_memory_ranges(struct memblock_type *regions_to_keep)
 {
-	phys_addr_t start, end;
-	u64 i;
+	phys_addr_t start[INIT_MEMBLOCK_RESERVED_REGIONS * 2];
+	phys_addr_t end[INIT_MEMBLOCK_RESERVED_REGIONS * 2];
+	u64 i, nr = 0;

 	/* truncate memory while skipping NOMAP regions */
 	for_each_mem_range(i, &memblock.memory, regions_to_keep, NUMA_NO_NODE,
-			   MEMBLOCK_NONE, &start, &end, NULL)
-		memblock_remove(start, end);
+			   MEMBLOCK_NONE, &start[nr], &end[nr], NULL)
+		nr++;
+	for (i = 0; i < nr; i++)
+		memblock_remove(start[i], end[i] - start[i]);

 	/* truncate the reserved regions */
+	nr = 0;
 	for_each_mem_range(i, &memblock.reserved, regions_to_keep, NUMA_NO_NODE,
-			   MEMBLOCK_NONE, &start, &end, NULL)
-		memblock_remove_range(&memblock.reserved, start, end);
+			   MEMBLOCK_NONE, &start[nr], &end[nr], NULL)
+		nr++;
+	for (i = 0; i < nr; i++)
+		memblock_remove_range(&memblock.reserved, start[i],
+				end[i] - start[i]);
 }

But a warning occurs when compiling:
  CALL    scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
  CC      mm/memblock.o
mm/memblock.c: In function ‘memblock_cap_memory_ranges’:
mm/memblock.c:1635:1: warning: the frame size of 36912 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
 }

another solution is my implementation in v1, solution B:
+void __init memblock_cap_memory_ranges(struct memblock_type *regions_to_keep)
+{
+   int start_rgn[INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS], end_rgn[INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS];
+   int i, j, ret, nr = 0;
+   memblock_region *regs = regions_to_keep->regions;
+
+   nr = regions_to_keep -> cnt;
+   if (!nr)
+       return;
+
+   /* remove all the MAP regions */
+   for (i = memblock.memory.cnt - 1; i >= end_rgn[nr - 1]; i--)
+       if (!memblock_is_nomap(&memblock.memory.regions[i]))
+           memblock_remove_region(&memblock.memory, i);
+
+   for (i = nr - 1; i > 0; i--)
+       for (j = start_rgn[i] - 1; j >= end_rgn[i - 1]; j--)
+           if (!memblock_is_nomap(&memblock.memory.regions[j]))
+               memblock_remove_region(&memblock.memory, j);
+
+   for (i = start_rgn[0] - 1; i >= 0; i--)
+       if (!memblock_is_nomap(&memblock.memory.regions[i]))
+           memblock_remove_region(&memblock.memory, i);
+
+   /* truncate the reserved regions */
+   memblock_remove_range(&memblock.reserved, 0, regs[0].base);
+
+   for (i = nr - 1; i > 0; i--)
+       memblock_remove_range(&memblock.reserved,
+               regs[i - 1].base + regs[i - 1].size,
+		regs[i].base - regs[i - 1].base - regs[i - 1].size);
+
+   memblock_remove_range(&memblock.reserved,
+           regs[nr - 1].base + regs[nr - 1].size, PHYS_ADDR_MAX);
+}

solution A: 	phys_addr_t start[INIT_MEMBLOCK_RESERVED_REGIONS * 2];
		phys_addr_t end[INIT_MEMBLOCK_RESERVED_REGIONS * 2];
start, end is physical addr

solution B: 	int start_rgn[INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS], end_rgn[INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS];
start_rgn, end_rgn is rgn index		

Solution B do less remove operations and with no warning comparing to solution A.
I think solution B is better, could you give some suggestions?

There are the same issues as above.
