From: Julien Grall <jgrall@amazon.com>

Unlike shadow_enable(), hap_enable() can only be called once during
domain creation and with the mode equal to mode equal to
PG_external | PG_translate | PG_refcounts.

If it were called twice, then we might have something interesting
problem as the p2m tables would be re-allocated (and therefore all the
mappings would be lost).

Add code to sanity check the mode and that the function is only called
once. Take the opportunity to an if checking that PG_translate is set.

It is not entirely clear when PG_translate was enforced.

If you want to return EINVAL for both they can be merged into a single
if. Also note that this would usually be written as
if ( d->arch.paging.mode ) to keep it shorter.

Albeit I think you might want to return EEXIST instead of EINVAL if
mode is already set.

I would also avoid comparing against 0 here.

Thanks, Roger.

To be honest, this is a matter of taste. There is also an argument that 
for MISRA, your suggestion is not compliant (see Rule 14.4).

I am happy with that.

Oh, then we should add those rules to CODING_STYLE if they are to be
enforced.

So far the style of most of the hypervisor code is to omit the value
when comparing against 0 or NULL AFAIK.

I don't have an issue with requiring explicit comparisons, but it
needs to be documented so we can aim to have an homogeneous style,
because so far I've been recommending the other way around.

Thanks, Roger.

Indeed, the general preference of the codebase as a whole is to favor
conciseness in this case; there's value in being consistent.

I don't want to be annoying about this.  I don't agree with the MISRA
rule here; but I do think that MISRA is important.  OTOH this is in x86
code, which I don't think anyone has suggested become MISRA compliant.
And if we're going to start making these sorts of changes, I agree that
we should have a discussion about it, rather than implicitly do things
sometimes one way and sometimes another.

I am not looking to enforce anything at the moment. My main point here 
is this is pretty much as matter of taste. But there might be concern 
with your suggestion if go forward with MISRA (this is not the only one 
though ;)).

Aside the MISRA, there are some cases where I feel the explicit 
comparisons make sense. But I don't have any rational for them and view 
this as a matter of taste. So I would leave it to the author of the 
patch the choice.

FWIW, I disagree on this aspect. Consistency of the code base
is, I think, more important an aspect. Yes, we likely never
won't reach a fully consistent state, as goals shift, but
anyway.

The meaning of consistency is quite broad. What you view as consistent 
may not be for me (and vice versa). So we are down to the "matter of 
taste" territory.

We could suggest to be consistent with the code surrounding, but I think 
you will not be happy with it as some code does not suit the coding 
style (see the recent discussion about using __).
