Remove all boolean parameters for 'reclaim' from the function
sgx_alloc_epc_page() and its callers by making two versions of each
function.

Also opportunistically remove non-static declaration of
__sgx_alloc_epc_page() and a typo

Jarkko, did this turn out how you expected?

I think passing around a function pointer to *only* communicate 1 bit of
information is a _bit_ overkill here.

Simply replacing the bool with:

enum sgx_reclaim {
	SGX_NO_RECLAIM,
	SGX_DO_RECLAIM
};

would do the same thing.  Right?

Are you sure you want a function pointer for this?

I think this is for better.

My view point for kernel patches overally is that:

1. A feature should leave the subsystem in cleaner state as
   far as the existing framework of doing things goes.
2. A bugfix can sometimes do the opposite if corner case
   requires some weird dance to perform.

To look this in context I drafted quickly two branches representing
imaginary next version of the patch set.

I guess this would simpler and totally sufficient approach.

With this approach I'd then change also:

[PATCH v9 04/15] x86/sgx: Implement basic EPC misc cgroup functionality

And add the enum-parameter already in that patch with just "no reclaim"
enum. I.e. then 10/15 will add only "do reclaim" and the new
functionality.

Thanks. My understanding is:

1) For this patch, replace the boolean with the enum as Dave suggested. No  
two versions of the same functions. And this is a prerequisite for the  
cgroup series, positioned before [PATCH v9 04/15]

2) For [PATCH v9 04/15], pass a hard coded SGX_NO_RECLAIM to  
sgx_epc_cg_try_charge() from sgx_alloc_epc_page().

3) For [PATCH v9 10/15], remove the hard coded value, pass the reclaim  
enum parameter value from sgx_alloc_epc_page() to  sgx_epc_cg_try_charge()  
and add the reclaim logic.

I'll send patches soon. But please let me know if I misunderstood.

Thanks
Haitao

Yup, this will make the whole patch set also a bit leaner as the API
does not change in the middle.
