Does that make sense? Looking at this, moving under %pr/R should deduplicate the code, no? I.o.w. better to use existing code for them to print struct range, no?

The r/R in %pr/%pR actually stands for "resource". But "%ra" really looks like a better choice than "%par". Both "resource" and "range" starts with 'r'. Also the struct resource is printed as a range of values. > > > > + [range 0x0000000060000000-0x000000006fffffff] > > > > + > > > > +For printing struct range.

Perhaps this should go somewhere under %pr/%pR? I'm speaking a bit for Dan here but also the logical way I thought of things. 1) %p does not dictate anything about the format of the data. Rather indicates that what is passed is a pointer. Because we are passing a pointer to a range struct %pXX makes sense. 2) %pa indicates what follows is 'address'. This was a bit of creative license because, as I said in the commit message most of the time struct range contains an address range. So for this narrow use case it also makes sense. 3) %par r for range. %p[rR] is taken. %pra confuses things IMO. > > > > The r/R in %pr/%pR actually stands for "resource". > > > > But "%ra" really looks like a better choice than "%par". Both > > "resource" and "range" starts with 'r'. Also the struct resource > > is printed as a range of values. %r could be used I think. But this breaks with the convention of passing a pointer and how to interpret it. The other idea I had, mentioned in the commit message was %pn. Meaning passed by pointer 'raNge'. I think that follows better than %r. That would be another break from C99. But we don't have to follow that. > > Fine with me as long as it: > 1) doesn't collide with %pa namespace > 2) tries to deduplicate existing code as much as possible. Andy, I'm not quite following how you expect to share the code between resource_string() and range_string()? There is very little duplicated code. In fact with Petr's suggestions and some more work range_string() is quite simple: +static noinline_for_stack +char *range_string(char *buf, char *end, const struct range *range, + struct printf_spec spec, const char *fmt) +{ +#define RANGE_DECODED_BUF_SIZE ((2 * sizeof(struct range)) + 4) +#define RANGE_PRINT_BUF_SIZE sizeof("[range -]") + char sym[RANGE_DECODED_BUF_SIZE + RANGE_PRINT_BUF_SIZE]; + char *p = sym, *pend = sym + sizeof(sym); + + *p++ = '['; + p = string_nocheck(p, pend, "range ", default_str_spec); + p = special_hex_number(p, pend, range->start, sizeof(range->start)); + *p++ = '-'; + p = special_hex_number(p, pend, range->end, sizeof(range->end)); + *p++ = ']'; + *p = '\0'; + + return string_nocheck(buf, end, sym, spec); +} Also this is the bulk of the patch except for documentation and the new testing code. [new patch below] Am I missing your point somehow? I considered cramming a struct range into a struct resource to let resource_string() process the data. But that would involve creating a new IORESOURCE_* flag (not ideal) and also does not allow for the larger u64 data in struct range should this be a 32 bit physical address config. Most importantly that would not be much less code AFAICT. Ira [snip] <new patch> commit a5f0305d319eac7c6e480851378695f8bd42a3d0 Author: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Date: Fri Jun 28 16:47:06 2024 -0500 printk: Add print format (%par) for struct range 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 '%pn' for 'print raNge' but %par follows that struct range is most often used to store a range of physical addresses. So use '%par' for 'print address range'.

Do you passing a pointer to struct range instead of a pointer to struct resource? It should not be a big problem as long as the vsprintf() code is able to guess the right pointer type from the %pXX modifier. > The other idea I had, mentioned in the commit > message was %pn.

As in the discussion it was pointed out that struct range is always 64-bit, limiting it to the "address" is a wrong assumption as we are talking generic printing routine here. We don't know what users will be in the future on 32-bit platforms, or what data (semantically) is being held by this structure. > 3) %par r for range.

No, we can't use %r or anything else that is documented for the standard printf() format specifiers, otherwise you will get a compiler warning and basically it means no go. > I think that follows better than %r.

Yes a pointer is passed as the parameter. This is what %p means AFAIU.

Only at a very basic level. struct resource has a variable spec while struct range does not.

I think so, but it requires a bit of thinking. Not much thinking. But the issue is that they are not close enough to justify the extra complexity IMHO. Making the outputs match with a common function takes 13 lines of code[1] including the declaration of a print specification which, as this thread already showed, is non-trivial to understand. __Also__ this is currently crashing on me and I can't figure out why. $ git diff --stat lib/vsprintf.c | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) OTOH to force a unified output, only takes 2 lines of duplicated code.[2] This is a very minor expense of duplicate code which is much easier to follow. $ git diff --stat lib/vsprintf.c | 9 +++++++-- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > That's why testing is very important in this kind of generic code. Yep. But the struct resource test was stubbed out. I've added some basic ones. But there are many more variations of struct resource prints.

This causes complexity to make the code the same. Fair enough, that's why I said "as much as possible to deduplicate".

Yeah, so make it then separated branches for %pr and %pra. You will take the correct argument type in each of them. There are existing examples there.

But it seems the %pr in the first case doesn't do range, just a single value, which makes sense to me (and this thread proved it) to avoid needless pedantic checking of each value. It means that at a glance you may tell start == end. Not sure about end < start case, but the point is just let's make it mimicing %pr behaviour. ... > +static noinline_for_stack > +char *hex_range(char *buf, char *end, u64 start_val, u64 end_val, > + struct printf_spec spec) > +{ > + buf = number(buf, end, start_val, spec); > + if (start_val != end_val) { > + *buf++ = '-'; > + buf = number(buf, end, end_val, spec); > + } > + return buf; > +} > + > static noinline_for_stack > char *resource_string(char *buf, char *end, struct resource *res, > struct printf_spec spec, const char *fmt) > @@ -1115,11 +1127,7 @@ char *resource_string(char *buf, char *end, struct resource *res, > p = string_nocheck(p, pend, "size ", str_spec); > p = number(p, pend, resource_size(res), *specp); > } else { > - p = number(p, pend, res->start, *specp); > - if (res->start != res->end) { > - *p++ = '-'; > - p = number(p, pend, res->end, *specp); > - } > + p = hex_range(p, pend, res->start, res->end, *specp); > } > if (decode) { > if (res->flags & IORESOURCE_MEM_64) > @@ -1149,11 +1157,19 @@ char *range_string(char *buf, char *end, const struct range *range, > char sym[RANGE_DECODED_BUF_SIZE + RANGE_PRINT_BUF_SIZE]; > char *p = sym, *pend = sym + sizeof(sym); > > + struct printf_spec range_spec = { > + spec.field_width = 2 + 2 * sizeof(range->start), /* 0x + 2 * u64 */ > + spec.flags = SPECIAL | SMALL | ZEROPAD, > + spec.base = 16, > + spec.precision = -1, > + }; But this can be deduplicated from special_hex_number(), no?

If we go the second way (the latter one here) can you add a comment in both %pr/%pra code excerpts to point to each other that the format is unified between them? It might help in the future to optimise the code if needed at all.

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 '%pn' for 'print raNge' but %par follows that struct range is most often used to store a range of physical addresses. So use '%par' for 'print address range'.
