* | ARM: 5880/1: arm: use generic infrastructure for early paramsJeremy Kerr2010-02-15
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ARM setup code includes its own parser for early params, there's also one in the generic init code. This patch removes __early_init (and related code) from arch/arm/kernel/setup.c, and changes users to the generic early_init macro instead. The generic macro takes a char * argument, rather than char **, so we need to update the parser functions a little.

* ARM: ensure initial page tables are setup for SMP systemsRussell King2009-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mapping the same memory using two different attributes (memory type, shareability, cacheability) is unpredictable. During boot, we encounter a situation when we're updating the kernel's page tables which can lead to dirty cache lines existing in the cache which are subsequently missed. This causes stack corruption, and therefore a crash. Therefore, ensure that the shared and cacheability settings matches the configuration that will be used later; this together with the restriction in early_cachepolicy() ensures that we won't create a mismatch during boot.

* ARM: Fix broken highmem supportRussell King2009-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased vmalloc area. However, none of this has any effect on the memory layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped. Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available virtual mapping space. The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size (see commit 60296c71f6c5063e3c1f1d2619ca0b60940162e7 for details on this). We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory, while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem. Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory are not supported. This is not a huge limitation since systems relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory with large holes. [ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9ecaf3 and be available in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage escaped testing somehow as well. -- Nico ] Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com>

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kmap virtual area borrows a 2MB range at the top of the 16MB area below PAGE_OFFSET currently reserved for kernel modules and/or the XIP kernel. This 2MB corresponds to the range covered by 2 consecutive second-level page tables, or a single pmd entry as seen by the Linux page table abstraction. Because XIP kernels are unlikely to be seen on systems needing highmem support, there shouldn't be any shortage of VM space for modules (14 MB for modules is still way more than twice the typical usage). Because the virtual mapping of highmem pages can go away at any moment after kunmap() is called on them, we need to bypass the delayed cache flushing provided by flush_dcache_page() in that case. The atomic kmap versions are based on fixmaps, and __cpuc_flush_dcache_page() is used directly in that case. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com>

* | [ARM] 5422/1: ARM: MMU: add a Non-cacheable Normal executable memory typePaul Walmsley2009-03-12
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a Non-cacheable Normal ARM executable memory type, MT_MEMORY_NONCACHED. On OMAP3, this is used for rapid dynamic voltage/frequency scaling in the VDD2 voltage domain. OMAP3's SDRAM controller (SDRC) is in the VDD2 voltage domain, and its clock frequency must change along with voltage. The SDRC clock change code cannot run from SDRAM itself, since SDRAM accesses are paused during the clock change. So the current implementation of the DVFS code executes from OMAP on-chip SRAM, aka "OCM RAM." If the OCM RAM pages are marked as Cacheable, the ARM cache controller will attempt to flush dirty cache lines to the SDRC, so it can fill those lines with OCM RAM instruction code. The problem is that the SDRC is paused during DVFS, and so any SDRAM access causes the ARM MPU subsystem to hang. TI's original solution to this problem was to mark the OCM RAM sections as Strongly Ordered memory, thus preventing caching. This is overkill: since the memory is marked as non-bufferable, OCM RAM writes become needlessly slow. The idea of "Strongly Ordered SRAM" is also conceptually disturbing. Previous LAKML list discussion is here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg54312.html This memory type MT_MEMORY_NONCACHED is used for OCM RAM by a future patch.

| * [ARM] 5241/1: provide ioremap_wc()Lennert Buytenhek2008-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides an ARM implementation of ioremap_wc(). We use different page table attributes depending on which CPU we are running on: - Non-XScale ARMv5 and earlier systems: The ARMv5 ARM documents four possible mapping types (CB=00/01/10/11). We can't use any of the cached memory types (CB=10/11), since that breaks coherency with peripheral devices. Both CB=00 and CB=01 are suitable for _wc, and CB=01 (Uncached/Buffered) allows the hardware more freedom than CB=00, so we'll use that. (The ARMv5 ARM seems to suggest that CB=01 is allowed to delay stores but isn't allowed to merge them, but there is no other mapping type we can use that allows the hardware to delay and merge stores, so we'll go with CB=01.) - XScale v1/v2 (ARMv5): same as the ARMv5 case above, with the slight difference that on these platforms, CB=01 actually _does_ allow merging stores. (If you want noncoalescing bufferable behavior on Xscale v1/v2, you need to use XCB=101.) - Xscale v3 (ARMv5) and ARMv6+: on these systems, we use TEXCB=00100 mappings (Inner/Outer Uncacheable in xsc3 parlance, Uncached Normal in ARMv6 parlance). The ARMv6 ARM explicitly says that any accesses to Normal memory can be merged, which makes Normal memory more suitable for _wc mappings than Device or Strongly Ordered memory, as the latter two mapping types are guaranteed to maintain transaction number, size and order. We use the Uncached variety of Normal mappings for the same reason that we can't use C=1 mappings on ARMv5. The xsc3 Architecture Specification documents TEXCB=00100 as being Uncacheable and allowing coalescing of writes, which is also just what we need.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no point scattering this around the tree, the parsing of the parameter might as well live beside the code which uses it. That also means we can make vmalloc_reserve a static variable. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

* [ARM] prevent crashing when too much RAM installedLennert Buytenhek2008-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch will truncate and/or ignore memory banks if their kernel direct mappings would (partially) overlap with the vmalloc area or the mappings between the vmalloc area and the address space top, to prevent crashing during early boot if there happens to be more RAM installed than we are expecting. Since the start of the vmalloc area is not at a fixed address (but the vmalloc end address is, via the per-platform VMALLOC_END define), a default area of 128M is reserved for vmalloc mappings, which can be shrunk or enlarged by passing an appropriate vmalloc= command line option as it is done on x86. On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe000000, two 512M RAM banks and vmalloc=128M (the default), this patch gives: Truncating RAM at 20000000-3fffffff to -35ffffff (vmalloc region overlap). Memory: 512MB 352MB = 864MB total On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe800000, two 256M RAM banks and vmalloc=768M, this patch gives: Truncating RAM at 00000000-0fffffff to -0e7fffff (vmalloc region overlap).

* Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()Bernhard Walle2008-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().
