To be honest, I doubt this has any measureable impact, but I agree that using variables _may_ make the flow control easier to understand. > > Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@....com> > Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@....com> > Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com> > Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@....com> > Cc: James Morse <james.morse@....com> > Cc: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@...gle.com> > --- > arch/arm64/mm/fault.c | 22 +++++++++++++++------- > 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c b/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c > index da02678..170c71f 100644 > --- a/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c > +++ b/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c > @@ -435,6 +435,11 @@ static bool is_el0_instruction_abort(unsigned int esr) > return ESR_ELx_EC(esr) == ESR_ELx_EC_IABT_LOW; > } > > +static bool is_write_abort(unsigned int esr) > +{ > + return (esr & ESR_ELx_WNR) && !(esr & ESR_ELx_CM); > +} In off-list review, I mentioned that this isn't true for EL1, and I think that we should name this 'is_el0_write_abort()' or add a comment explaining the caveats if factored into a helper.
