Create an anonymous union for dsisr and esr regsiters, we can reference
esr to get the exception detail when CONFIG_4xx=y or CONFIG_BOOKE=y.
Otherwise, reference dsisr. This makes code more clear.

I'm not sure it is worth doing that.

What is the point in doing the following when you know that regs->esr and regs->dsisr are exactly 
the same:

 > -	err = ___do_page_fault(regs, regs->dar, regs->dsisr);
 > +	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_4xx) || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_BOOKE))
 > +		err = ___do_page_fault(regs, regs->dar, regs->esr);
 > +	else
 > +		err = ___do_page_fault(regs, regs->dar, regs->dsisr);
 > +

Or even

 > -	int is_write = page_fault_is_write(regs->dsisr);
 > +	unsigned long err_reg;
 > +	int is_write;
 > +
 > +	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_4xx) || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_BOOKE))

Artificially growing the code for that makes no sense to me.


To avoid anbiguity, maybe the best would be to rename regs->dsisr to something like regs->sr , so 
that we know it represents the status register, which is DSISR or ESR depending on the platform.

Why don't we use "esr" as reference manauls mentioned?

Yes, we can drop this. But it's a bit vague.

If so, this would make other people more confused. My consideration is
to follow what the reference
manuals represent.

Thank you so much for your comments.

I don't mind doing that.

But I'm not sure about the use of anonymous unions in UAPI headers. Old
compilers don't support them, so there's a risk of breakage.

I'd rather we didn't touch the uapi version.

As Christophe said, I don't thinks this is an improvement.

It makes the code less readable. If anyone is confused about what is
passed to ___do_page_fault() they can either read the comment above it,
or look at the definition of pt_regs to see that esr and dsisr share
storage.

Maybe then we could rename the fields as regs->dsisr_esr and regs->dar_dear

That would be more explicit for everyone.

The UAPI header however should remain as is because anonymous unions are not supported by old 
compilers as mentioned by Michael.

But nevertheless, there are also situations where was is stored in regs->dsisr is not what we have 
in DSISR register. For instance on an ISI exception, we store a subset of the content of SRR1 
register into regs->dsisr.

Can I think my method has better expansibility here;-)?
Let me finish esr and dear first. Thank you for the reminder.

More precisely, it exists only since C11, so even with all not-so-ancient
compilers it will not work if the user uses (say) -std=c99, which still
is popular.
