[PATCH 2/8] arm64: use fixmap region for permanent FDT mapping
Ard Biesheuvel
ard.biesheuvel at linaro.org
Sun May 10 23:41:54 PDT 2015
Currently, the FDT blob needs to be in the same 512 MB region as
the kernel, so that it can be mapped into the kernel virtual memory
space very early on using a minimal set of statically allocated
translation tables.
Now that we have early fixmap support, we can relax this restriction,
by moving the permanent FDT mapping to the fixmap region instead.
This way, the FDT blob may be anywhere in memory.
This also moves the vetting of the FDT to mmu.c, since the early
init code in head.S does not handle mapping of the FDT anymore.
At the same time, fix up some comments in head.S that have gone stale.

+The device tree blob (dtb) must be placed on an 8-byte boundary and must
+not exceed 2 megabytes in size. Since the dtb will be mapped cacheable using
+blocks of up to 2 megabytes in size, it should not be placed within 2 megabytes
+of memreserves or other special carveouts that may be mapped with non-matching
+attributes.
+
+NOTE: versions prior to v4.2 also require that the DTB be placed within
+the 512 MB region starting at text_offset bytes below the kernel Image.
3. Decompress the kernel image
