This patch moves all definitions of the PCI resource names to an 'enum',

Thanks for removing a bunch of magic numbers from the code.
static void
pci_restore_bars(struct pci_dev *dev)
{
- int i, numres;
-
- switch (dev->hdr_type) {
- case PCI_HEADER_TYPE_NORMAL:
- numres = 6;
- break;
- case PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE:
- numres = 2;
- break;
- case PCI_HEADER_TYPE_CARDBUS:
- numres = 1;
- break;
- default:
- /* Should never get here, but just in case... */
- return;
- }
+ int i;
- for (i = 0; i < numres; i++)
+ for (i = 0; i < PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCES; i++)
pci_update_resource(dev, i);
}
The behavior of this function used to depend on dev->hdr_type. Now
we don't look at hdr_type at all, so we do the same thing for all
devices.
For example, for a CardBus device, we used to call pci_update_resource()
only for BAR 0; now we call it for BARs 0-6.
Maybe this is safe, but I can't tell from the patch, so I think you
should explain *why* it's safe in the changelog.
It's safe because pci_update_resource() will ignore unused resources.
E.g., for a Cardbus, only BAR 0 is used and its 'flags' is set, then
pci_update_resource() only updates it. BAR 1-6 are ignored since their
'flags' are 0.
I'll put more explanation in the changelog.
This is a logically separate change from merely substituting enum
names for magic numbers, so you might even consider splitting it
into a separate patch. Better bisection and all that, you know :-)
Will do.
Thanks,
Yu
