The pr_warn() says invalid and then you change the error code to something magic. Thanks, tglx

The option "crashkernel=X,high", which is only used on x86, causes parse_kernel() to return -EINVAL, then let parse_crashkernel_high() have a try. When parsing crashkernel=size@offset and crashkernel=range1:size1, there are other cases of failure, which is not worth to call parse_crashkernel_high() to have a try. That is "-1" aiming for. First, in parse_crashkernel_mem(), if demanded size is bigger than system ram, this one looks like -ENOMEM, but -ENOMEM normally is used for allocation. Second, in parse_crashkernel_mem(), if system ram is not inside the range listed by "crashkernel=". Third, crashkernel=0MB is given in the option (not in practice, but can not forbid user to do so). All of these cases can be treated as -EINVAL, but hard to define the error codes. > Also I don't see any positive return value > 0. So what is this about: > Yes. 0 is enough for success. I had thought about returning 1 if @offset is specified in crashkernel. But at present, no use case for it. > > --- a/arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c > > +++ b/arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c > > @@ -277,7 +277,7 @@ static void __init setup_crashkernel(unsigned long total, int *n) > > > > ret = parse_crashkernel(boot_command_line, total, > > &size, &base); > > - if (ret == 0 && size > 0) { > > + if (ret >= 0) { > > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ???? > > > if (!memory_region_available(crash_base, crash_size)) { > > diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/fadump.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/fadump.c > > index 45a8d0b..0b626e2 100644 > > --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/fadump.c > > +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/fadump.c > > @@ -376,7 +376,7 @@ static inline unsigned long fadump_calculate_reserve_size(void) > > */ > > ret = parse_crashkernel(boot_command_line, memblock_phys_mem_size(), > > &size, &base); > > - if (ret == 0 && size > 0) { > > + if (ret >= 0) { > > and this ? > > > unsigned long max_size; > > > > if (fw_dump.reserve_bootvar) > > diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c > > index 63f5a93..9f3e61a 100644 > > --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c > > +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c > > @@ -122,7 +122,7 @@ void __init reserve_crashkernel(void) > > /* use common parsing */ > > ret = parse_crashkernel(boot_command_line, memblock_phys_mem_size(), > > &crash_size, &crash_base); > > - if (ret == 0 && crash_size > 0) { > > + if (ret >= 0) { > > Again. > > > crashk_res.start = crash_base; > > crashk_res.end = crash_base + crash_size - 1; > > } > > --- a/arch/sh/kernel/machine_kexec.c > > +++ b/arch/sh/kernel/machine_kexec.c > > @@ -157,7 +157,7 @@ void __init reserve_crashkernel(void) > > > > ret = parse_crashkernel(boot_command_line, memblock_phys_mem_size(), > > &crash_size, &crash_base); > > - if (ret == 0 && crash_size > 0) { > > + if (ret >= 0) { > > And some more. > > > crashk_res.start = crash_base; > > crashk_res.end = crash_base + crash_size - 1; > > } > > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c b/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c > > index 3d872a5..62d07d4 100644 > > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c > > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c > > @@ -526,11 +526,11 @@ static void __init reserve_crashkernel(void) > > > > /* crashkernel=XM */ > > ret = parse_crashkernel(boot_command_line, total_mem, &crash_size, &crash_base); > > - if (ret != 0 || crash_size <= 0) { > > + if (ret == -EINVAL) { > > Without an explanation why this proceedes on error codes other than EINVAL > this is uncomprehensible.

What about the following alternative method? Treating crash_size=0 as -EINVAL. Then on x86, just call parse_crashkernel_high() blindly to have a try. Thanks for your review. Regards, Pingfan
