[PATCH v5] ARM: early fixmap support for earlycon

Stefan Agner stefan at agner.ch
Tue Aug 11 09:15:53 PDT 2015


Add early fixmap support, initially to support permanent, fixed
mapping support for early console. A temporary, early pte is
created which is migrated to a permanent mapping in paging_init.
This is also needed since the attributes may change as the memory
types are initialized. The 3MiB range of fixmap spans two pte
tables, but currently only one pte is created for early fixmap
support.

Re-add FIX_KMAP_BEGIN to the index calculation in highmem.c since
the index for kmap does not start at zero anymore. This reverts
4221e2e6b316 ("ARM: 8031/1: fixmap: remove FIX_KMAP_BEGIN and
FIX_KMAP_END") to some extent.

Hi Russel,

All three compile issues were related to MMU/!MMU differences. The solution
is rather simple: This patch now only configures FIX_EARLYCON_MEM if the
MMU is available. This makes sense since on !MMU platform we can use ioremap
very early...

Changes since v4:
- Add MMU dependency for FIX_EARLYCON_MEM
- Call early_fixmap_init conditionally, only if FIX_EARLYCON_MEM is set

Changes since v3:
- Remove address of on functions
- Clear all pmd's except early fixmap pmd in devicemaps_init
- Update comment in devicemaps_init since earlycon works now as debug method
- Add comment regarding FIXMAP_PAGE_IO/FIXMAP_PAGE_NOCACHE use

Changes since v2:
- Rebased and tested on rmk/for-next
- Flush TLB's when clearing the temporary PMD in early_fixmap_shutdown

Changes since v1 (RFC):
- Rebased and tested on v3.19-rc5
- Spelling errors in comments and commit message
- Added Rob's SOB
