There are many below pattern
fun()
{
...
dma_map_single();
if (dma_mapping_error)
goto err1;
dmaengine_prep_slave_single()
if (...)
goto err2
dmaengine_submit()
if (...)
goto err3
wait_for_completion_timeout()
if (...)
goto err4
err4:
err3:
err2:
dma_umap_single();
err1:
}
Use cleanup can simple error handle like guard(), such as guard(mutex).
or __free(kfree) = kmalloc.
But dma_umap_single() need more argurements. So situation below complex.
It need pack argurments list into structure.
#define __DEFINE_GUARD_CLASS(_name, _return_type, _list_class_fields) \
typedef struct { \
_return_type ret; \
bool okay; \
struct { \
__REMOVE(_list_class_fields); \
} args; \
} class_##_name##_t;
So save all arugments to it.
__DEFINE_GUARD_CLASS(dma_map_single, dma_addr_t, (struct device *dev; void *ptr; size_t size; enum dma_data_direction dir)
will expand to
struct {
dma_addr_t ret;
bool okay;
struct {
struct device *dev;
void *ptr;
size_t size;
enum dma_data_direction dir;
}
}
So cleanup function can use saved argurement.
The above fun will be
fun()
{
CLASS(dma_map_single, dma)(dev, ...);
...
if (...)
return err;
}
if funtion return, which need keep map,
submit()
{
dma_map_single();
...
dmaengine_submit();
if (...)
goto err1
return;
goto err1:
dma_umap_single();
}
Macro retain_and_empty() will clean varible to avoid unmap.
({ \
__auto_type __ptr = &(t); typeof(t) empty= {}; \
__auto_type __val = *__ptr; \
__ptr->okay = 0; \
__val.ret; \
})
So
submit()
{
CLASS(dma_map_single, dma)(dev,...;
...
dmaengine_submit();
if (...)
return err;
//before return;
retain_and_empty(dma)
}
This series just show how to hanndle many agurement at resource alloc/free
functions. Only show dma_map_single. If the over all method is acceptable.
I will more define for dma mapping functions.
