The low order bits are * designated to hold an error code (between 0 and -MAX_ERRNO). The upper bits * are used as a counter. This is done with atomics instead of locking so that * these functions can be called from any context. * * The general idea is for consumers to sample an errseq_t value. That value * can later be used to tell whether any new errors have occurred since that * sampling was done. * * Note that there is a risk of collisions if new errors are being recorded * frequently, since we have so few bits to use as a counter. * * To mitigate this, one bit is used as a flag to tell whether the value has * been sampled since a new value was recorded. That allows us to avoid bumping * the counter if no one has sampled it since the last time an error was * recorded. * * A new errseq_t should always be zeroed out. A errseq_t value of all zeroes * is the special (but common) case where there has never been an error. An all * zero value thus serves as the "epoch" if one wishes to know whether there * has ever been an error set since it was first initialized. */ /* The low bits are designated for error code (max of MAX_ERRNO) */ #define ERRSEQ_SHIFT (ilog2(MAX_ERRNO) + 1) /* This bit is used as a flag to indicate whether the value has been seen */ #define ERRSEQ_SEEN (1 << ERRSEQ_SHIFT) /* Leverage macro ERRSEQ_SEEN to define errno mask macro here */ #define ERRNO_MASK (ERRSEQ_SEEN - 1) /* The lowest bit of the counter */ #define ERRSEQ_CTR_INC (1 << (ERRSEQ_SHIFT + 1)) /** * errseq_set - set a errseq_t for later reporting * @eseq: errseq_t field that should be set * @err: error to set (must be between -1 and -MAX_ERRNO) * * This function sets the error in @eseq, and increments the sequence counter * if the last sequence was sampled at some point in the past. * * Any error set will always overwrite an existing error. * * Return: The previous value, primarily for debugging purposes.
