early_reserve_e820() is an early hack for kexec that does a limited fixup of the mptable and passes it to the kexec kernel as if it was the real thing. For this it needs to allocate memory - but no memory allocator is available yet beyond the memblock allocator, so early_reserve_e820() is really a wrapper around memblock_alloc() plus a hack to update the e820_table_firmware entries. The name 'reserve' is really a bit of a misnomer, as 'reserved' memory typically means memory completely inaccessible to the kernel - while here what we want to do is a special RAM allocation for our own purposes and insert that as RAM_RESERVED. Rename the function to e820__memblock_alloc_reserved() to better signal this dual purpose, plus document it better, which was omitted when it was merged. The barely comprehensible and cryptic comment: /* * pre allocated 4k and reserved it in memblock and e820_table_firmware */ u64 __init e820__memblock_alloc_reserved(u64 size, u64 align) ... does not count as documentation, replace it with: /* * Allocate the requested number of bytes with the requsted alignment * and return (the physical address) to the caller. Also register this * range in the 'firmware' E820 table. * * This allows kexec to fake a new mptable, as if it came from the real * system. */ u64 __init e820__memblock_alloc_reserved(u64 size, u64 align) No change in functionality.
