Also, an expression like "(64 << 10)" is more readable than a "1"
with a tail of zeroes (it's easy to add one zero too many or be one
zero short).

+1 to not open coding raw numbers.

I think it's high time KVM selftests add #defines for the common sizes, e.g. SIZE_4KB,
16KB, 64K, 2MB, 1GB, etc...

Alternatively (or in addition), just #define 1KB, 1MB, 1GB, and 1TB, and then do
math off of those.


Ok. I will have one separate patch to define those sizes in kvm_util_base.h,
right after '#define NSEC_PER_SEC 1000000000L'. Sean, could you let me know
if it looks good to you?

#define KB (1UL << 10)
#define MB (1UL << 20)
#define GB (1UL << 30)
#define TB (1UL << 40)

/* Base page and huge page size */
#define SIZE_4KB ( 4 * KB)
#define SIZE_16KB ( 16 * KB)
#define SIZE_64KB ( 64 * KB)
#define SIZE_2MB ( 2 * MB)
#define SIZE_32MB ( 32 * MB)
#define SIZE_512MB (512 * MB)
#define SIZE_1GB ( 1 * GB)
#define SIZE_16GB ( 16 * GB)

Thanks,
Gavin
