[PATCH 2/3] printf: Add print format (%pra) for struct range
Posted by Ira Weiny 1 month, 1 week ago
The use of struct range in the CXL subsystem is growing.  In particular,
the addition of Dynamic Capacity devices uses struct range in a number
of places which are reported in debug and error messages.

To wit requiring the printing of the start/end fields in each print
became cumbersome.  Dan Williams mentions in [1] that it might be time
to have a print specifier for struct range similar to struct resource

A few alternatives were considered including '%par', '%r', and '%pn'.
%pra follows that struct range is similar to struct resource (%p[rR])
but needs to be different.  Based on discussions with Petr and Andy
'%pra' was chosen.[2]

Andy also suggested to keep the range prints similar to struct resource
though combined code.  Add hex_range() to handle printing for both
pointer types.

Finally introduce DEFINE_RANGE() as a parallel to DEFINE_RES_*() and use
it in the tests.

Since you are going to have a new version, I think this should be _or_ instead
of _and_.

I was going to say "why this special case that does not exist for the
%pr case?", but then checked the code and found it *does* do this for %pr.
So if you're going to document this special case for %pra might as well
update the documentation for %pr too.

Alternatively, drop the new %pra documentation for this corner case as
accommodating the U64_MAX size range case is arguably a mistake in the
caller.

Either way, just make it consistent.

You probably meant "...(U64_MAX + 1) size..." as we end up with the same value.
But yeah, I also noticed the same.

I would actually prefer the opposite and update the %pr documentation.

The behavior might be surprising and people should beware of it,
for example when writing a parser for the output.

Works for me.  I added a patch to enhance %pr and left in the %pra doc.
