    arm64: Add simple earlyprintk support · 2475ff9d
    Catalin Marinas 提交于
    This patch adds support for "earlyprintk=" parameter on the kernel
    command line. The format is:
    
      earlyprintk=<name>[,<addr>][,<options>]
    
    where <name> is the name of the (UART) device, e.g. "pl011", <addr> is
    the I/O address. The <options> aren't currently used.
    
    The mapping of the earlyprintk device is done very early during kernel
    boot and there are restrictions on which functions it can call. A
    special early_io_map() function is added which creates the mapping from
    the pre-defined EARLY_IOBASE to the device I/O address passed via the
    kernel parameter. The pgd entry corresponding to EARLY_IOBASE is
    pre-populated in head.S during kernel boot.
    
    Only PL011 is currently supported and it is assumed that the interface
    is already initialised by the boot loader before the kernel is started.
