Subject: [PATCH 00/15] trivial: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)

Hi,

This cleans up the usage of IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)(), where the callers have
added additional unlikely compiler flag to them. It also fixes the
definition of IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), to use unlikely for all checks it does.

Viresh Kumar (15):
err.h: add (missing) unlikely() to IS_ERR_OR_NULL()
PM / OPP: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)
drivers: devfreq: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)
drivers: gpu: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)

Subject: [PATCH 01/15] err.h: add (missing) unlikely() to IS_ERR_OR_NULL()

IS_ERR_VALUE() already contains it and so we need to add this only to
the !ptr check. That will allow users of IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), to not add
this compiler flag.

Any idea what the compiler does in the case of
"if (likely(IS_ERR(...)))"? There are apparently such cases in the source.

does the "likely" somehow override the "unlikely" of IS_ERR, or is the
resulting code a mess?

Good point. While fixing all the sites, I saw some code like that. Then before
posting the series, I tried to look at what compilers do to such codes and they
generated exactly same code for:

likely(unlikely(x)) and unlikely(x).

So, either those call sites should drop the likely bits or we supply them with
another raw version of the macro :)

Or if my tests were wrong, then please lemme know.

We have two cases in code:

drivers/rtc/rtc-gemini.c: if (likely(IS_ERR(rtc->rtc_dev)))
drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/lu_object.c: if (likely(IS_ERR(shadow) && PTR_ERR(shadow) == -ENOENT)) {

The first one is mistake, I think. Or do we expect rtc_device_register()
to fail?

The second is redundant. "if (PTR_ERR(shadow) == -ENOENT)" should do the
job.

If it's all fixed, then it's unlikely to be needed in checkpatch.

But given the unlikely was added when using gcc3.4, I wonder if
it's still appropriate to use unlikely in IS_ERR at all.

[PATCH] mark IS_ERR as unlikely()

It seems fair to assume that it is always unlikely that IS_ERR will return
true.

This patch changes the gcc-3.4-generated kernel text by ~500 bytes (less) so
it's fair to assume that the compiler is indeed propagating unlikeliness out
of inline functions.

Subject: [PATCH 9/15 V2] drivers: rtc: Drop (un)likely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)

IS_ERR(_OR_NULL) already contain an 'unlikely' compiler flag and there
is no need to do that again from its callers. Drop it.

gemini driver was using likely() for a failure case while the rtc driver
is getting registered. That looks wrong and it should really be
unlikely. But because we are killing all the unlikely() flags, lets kill
that too.

V1->V2:
- Removed the likely() part from gemini driver and the changelog wasn't
updated to match that. Fixed the changelog now.

IS_ERR_OR_NULL() is defined as

static inline bool __must_check IS_ERR_OR_NULL(__force const void *ptr)
{
return !ptr || IS_ERR_VALUE((unsigned long)ptr);
}

So the unlikely() applies only to second part. Wouldn't that be a
problem for optimization?

Ugg...

The unlikely() in IS_ERR_VALUE() is likely to stop the compiler
doing a single 'window' comparison for the range [-MAX_ERROR .. 0].
So you are likely to end up with 2 comparisons.
I suspect that:

return IS_ERR_VALUE((unsigned long)ptr - 1);

would be a much better test.
(Ignoring the off-by-one for the highest error.)

I'd rather keep it as it documents the expected behavior and double
unlikely should work just fine.

True, but checkpatch is more about style than substance.

There are a lot of things that _could_ be added to the script
but don't have to be because of relative rarity.

The unanswered fundamental though is whether the unlikely use
in #define IS_ERR_VALUE is useful.

include/linux/err.h:21:#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) unlikely((x) >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO)

How often does using unlikely here make the code smaller/faster
with more recent compilers than gcc 3.4? Or even using gcc 3.4.

TBH, I don't really agree that it is there for documentation. The only purpose
of such compiler flags is to try make code more efficient.

Anyway, I got to this series as someone asked me to fix this for one of my
patches which used unlikely(IS_ERR_OR_NULL()). And so I thought about fixing all
sites that are doing double unlikely (that shouldn't hurt for sure).

I will leave it to you.

I think that unlikely() macro here make code more readable. Yes, it is
also for compiler optimization, but also for me it looks like Clean Code
pattern <https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_Code> -- is not it?

People know that errors are unlikely, no need to tell them. I'd remove
it.

@ from include/linux/err.h
#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) unlikely((x) >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO)
...
static inline bool __must_check IS_ERR_OR_NULL(__force const void *ptr)
{
return !ptr || IS_ERR_VALUE((unsigned long)ptr);
}

"!ptr" appears not covered with IS_ERR_OR_NULL.
(only the IS_ERR part seems covered)

It wouldn't harm even if you apply it without 1/15. So, just go on and
