Hi,
This is v2 of the series to add CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL support from arm64. This
has been split out into a number of patches:
Patch #1 Adds ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VIRTUAL to avoid the need for adding arch
dependencies for DEBUG_VIRTUAL. This touches arch/x86/Kconfig
Patch #2 Cleans up cma to not rely on __pa_nodebug and have an #ifdef inline
in the function.
Patch #3 Adjust some macros in arm64 memory.h to be under __ASSEMBLY__
protection
Patch #4 Adds a cast for virt_to_pfn since __virt_to_phys for DEBUG_VIRTUAL no
longer has a cast.
Patch #5 Switches to using __pa_symbol for _end to avoid erroneously triggering
a bounds error with the debugging.
Patch #6 is the actual implementation of DEBUG_VIRTUAL. The biggest change from
the RFCv1 is the addition of __phys_addr_symbol. This is to handle several
places where the physical address of _end is needed. x86 avoids this problem by
doing its bounds check based on the entire possible image space which is well
beyond where _end would end up.
There are a few dependencies outside of arm64, so I don't know if
it will be easier for this to eventually go through arm64 or the mm tree.
Thanks,
Laura
