[PATCH 2/2] ARM: support PHYS_OFFSET minimum aligned at 64KiB boundary

Mon Sep 14 21:52:04 EDT 2020


Currently, only support the kernels where the base of physical memory is
at a 16MiB boundary. Because the add/sub instructions only contains 8bits
unrotated value. But we can use one more "add/sub" instructions to handle
bits 23-16. The performance will be slightly affected.

Since most boards meet 16 MiB alignment, so add a new configuration
option ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT_RADICAL (default n) to control it. Say Y if
anyone really needs it.

All r0-r7 (r1 = machine no, r2 = atags or dtb, in the start-up phase) are
used in __fixup_a_pv_table() now, but the callee saved r11 is not used in
the whole head.S file. So choose it.

Because the calculation of "y = x + __pv_offset[63:24]" have been done,
so we only need to calculate "y = y + __pv_offset[23:16]", that's why
the parameters "to" and "from" of __pv_stub() and __pv_add_carry_stub()
in the scope of CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT_RADICAL are all passed "t"
(above y).
