Subject: [PATCH] virtio_mem: add bitmap_test_range_all_set/zero helpers
Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2026 18:32:10 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260405213210.108533-1-luanharaujo@gmail.com> (raw)
Encapsulate find_next_bit and find_next_zero_bit calls into helpers
to verify if a range of subblocks is entirely plugged or unplugged.
This improves readability as requested by the TODO comments in the
source code.
Validation confirms the change is binary-neutral on ARM64, with the
generated instructions remaining identical.

Hi David,
This is my first patch contribution to the Linux kernel, following up on
your TODO notes in virtio_mem.c.
As part of my learning process (LFX 103), I verified the change in a
QEMU (KVM) environment with test_bitmap. I also compared the generated
assembly on ARM64 and it remains identical, confirming the helpers are
binary-neutral as expected.
I noticed these helpers could also be useful in include/linux/bitmap.h in
the future. If you think it makes sense to move them there, I'd be happy
to work on that in a next step.
Looking forward to your feedback.
Luan.
