[RFC PATCH v2 3/7] ARM: NOMMU: Rework MPU to be mostly done in C

Vladimir Murzin vladimir.murzin at arm.com
Fri May 19 02:46:42 PDT 2017


Currently, there are several issues with how MPU is setup:

 1. We won't boot if MPU is missing
 2. We won't boot if use XIP
 3. Further extension of MPU setup requires asm skills

The 1st point can be relaxed, so we can continue with boot CPU even if
MPU is missed and fail boot for secondaries only. To address the 2nd
point we could create region covering CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR - _end and
that might work for the first stage of MPU enable, but due to MPU's
alignment requirement we could cover too much, IOW we need more
flexibility in how we're partitioning memory regions... and it'd be
hardly possible to archive because of the 3rd point.

This patch is trying to address 1st and 3rd issues and paves the path
for 2nd and further improvements.

The most visible change introduced with this patch is that we start
using mpu_rgn_info array (as it was supposed?), so change in MPU setup
done by boot CPU is recorded there and feed to secondaries. It
allows us to keep minimal region setup for boot CPU and do the rest in
C. Since we start programming MPU regions in C evaluation of MPU
constrains (number of regions supported and minimal region order) can
be done once, which in turn open possibility to free-up "probe"
region early.
