      powerpc/fsl-booke: Make CAM entries used for lowmem configurable · 96051465
      Trent Piepho 提交于
      On booke processors, the code that maps low memory only uses up to three
      CAM entries, even though there are sixteen and nothing else uses them.
      
      Make this number configurable in the advanced options menu along with max
      low memory size.  If one wants 1 GB of lowmem, then it's typically
      necessary to have four CAM entries.

      powerpc/fsl-booke: Allow larger CAM sizes than 256 MB · c8f3570b
      Trent Piepho 提交于
      The code that maps kernel low memory would only use page sizes up to 256
      MB.  On E500v2 pages up to 4 GB are supported.
      
      However, a page must be aligned to a multiple of the page's size.  I.e.
      256 MB pages must aligned to a 256 MB boundary.  This was enforced by a
      requirement that the physical and virtual addresses of the start of lowmem
      be aligned to 256 MB.  Clearly requiring 1GB or 4GB alignment to allow
      pages of that size isn't acceptable.
      
      To solve this, I simply have adjust_total_lowmem() take alignment into
      account when it decides what size pages to use.  Give it PAGE_OFFSET =
      0x7000_0000, PHYSICAL_START = 0x3000_0000, and 2GB of RAM, and it will map
      pages like this:
      PA 0x3000_0000 VA 0x7000_0000 Size 256 MB
      PA 0x4000_0000 VA 0x8000_0000 Size 1 GB
      PA 0x8000_0000 VA 0xC000_0000 Size 256 MB
      PA 0x9000_0000 VA 0xD000_0000 Size 256 MB
      PA 0xA000_0000 VA 0xE000_0000 Size 256 MB
      
      Because the lowmem mapping code now takes alignment into account,
      PHYSICAL_ALIGN can be lowered from 256 MB to 64 MB.  Even lower might be
      possible.  The lowmem code will work down to 4 kB but it's possible some of
      the boot code will fail before then.  Poor alignment will force small pages
      to be used, which combined with the limited number of TLB1 pages available,
      will result in very little memory getting mapped.  So alignments less than
      64 MB probably aren't very useful anyway.

      powerpc/fsl-booke: Remove code duplication in lowmem mapping · f88747e7
      Trent Piepho 提交于
      The code to map lowmem uses three CAM aka TLB[1] entries to cover it.  The
      size of each is stored in three globals named __cam0, __cam1, and __cam2.
      All the code that uses them is duplicated three times for each of the three
      variables.
      
      We have these things called arrays and loops....
      
      Once converted to use an array, it will be easier to make the number of
      CAMs configurable.

      [POWERPC] 85xx: Add support for relocatable kernel (and booting at non-zero) · 37dd2bad
      Kumar Gala 提交于
      Added support to allow an 85xx kernel to be run from a non-zero physical
      address (useful for cooperative asymmetric multiprocessing situations and
      kdump).  The support can be configured at compile time by setting
      CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, CONFIG_KERNEL_START, and CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as
      desired.
      
      Alternatively, the kernel build can set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.  Setting this
      config option causes the kernel to determine at runtime the physical
      addresses of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET and CONFIG_KERNEL_START.  If
      CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, then CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START has no meaning.
      However, CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START will always be used to set the LOAD program
      header physical address field in the resulting ELF image.
      
      Currently we are limited to running at a physical address that is a
      multiple of 256M.  This is due to how we map TLBs to cover
      lowmem.  This should be fixed to allow 64M or maybe even 16M alignment
      in the future.  It is considered an error to try and run a kernel at a
      non-aligned physical address.
      
      All the magic for this support is accomplished by proper initialization
      of the kernel memory subsystem and use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET.
      
      The use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET only affects normal memory and not IO mappings.
      ioremap uses map_page and isn't affected by ARCH_PFN_OFFSET.
      
      /dev/mem continues to allow access to any physical address in the system
      regardless of how CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is set.

      [POWERPC] 85xx: Failure with odd memory sizes and CONFIG_HIGHMEM · 873553b3
      Dale Farnsworth 提交于
      The CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE mmu setup code fails when CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
      and the 3 fixed TLB entries cannot exactly map the lowmem size.
      Each TLB entry can map 4MB, 16MB, 64MB or 256MB, so the failure
      is observed when the kernel lowmem size is not equal to the
      sum of up to 3 of those values.
      
      Normally, memory is sized in nice numbers, but I observed this
      problem while testing a crash dump kernel.  The failure can
      also be observed by artificially reducing the kernel's main
      memory via the mem= kernel command line parameter.
      
      This commit fixes the problem by setting __initial_memory_limit
      in adjust_total_lowmem().

      powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc. · 14cf11af
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
      of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
      arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
      to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
      
      For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
      arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
      to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
      
      The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
