linux-stable.git/arch/arm/boot/compressed, branch linux-3.19.y Linux kernel stable tree ARM: 8294/1: ATAG_DTB_COMPAT: remove the DT workspace's hardcoded 64KB size 2015-01-29T15:23:01+00:00 Nicolas Pitre nicolas.pitre@linaro.org 2015-01-27T15:10:42+00:00 c2607f74aad96d18316a6e709b40e0ffe9def148 There is currently a hardcoded limit of 64KB for the DTB to live in and be extended with ATAG info. Some DTBs have outgrown that limit: $ du -b arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-n900.dtb 70212 arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-n900.dtb Furthermore, the actual size passed to atags_to_fdt() included the stack size which is obviously wrong. The initial DTB size is known, so use it to size the allocated workspace with a 50% growth assumption and relocate the temporary stack above that. This is also clamped to 32KB min / 1MB max for robustness against bad DTB data.

ARM: 8191/1: decompressor: ensure I-side picks up relocated code 2014-11-13T23:45:20+00:00 Will Deacon will.deacon@arm.com 2014-11-04T10:40:46+00:00 238962ac71910d6c20162ea5230685fead1836a4 To speed up decompression, the decompressor sets up a flat, cacheable mapping of memory. However, when there is insufficient space to hold the page tables for this mapping, we don't bother to enable the caches and subsequently skip all the cache maintenance hooks. Skipping the cache maintenance before jumping to the relocated code allows the processor to predict the branch and populate the I-cache with stale data before the relocation loop has completed (since a bootloader may have SCTLR.I set, which permits normal, cacheable instruction fetches regardless of SCTLR.M). This patch moves the cache maintenance check into the maintenance routines themselves, allowing the v6/v7 versions to invalidate the I-cache regardless of the MMU state.

This normally shouldn't matter to the boot environment, except for those cases where the selection of a ramdisk or root filesystem with a matching endianness has to be automated. Let's add a flag to the zImage header indicating the actual endianness. Four bytes from offset 0x30 can be interpreted as follows: 04 03 02 01 big endian kernel 01 02 03 04 little endian kernel Anything else should be interpreted as "unknown", in which case it is most likely that patch #8067/1 was not applied either and the zImage magic number at offset 0x24 could be used instead to determine endianness. No zImage before this patch ever produced 0x01020304 nor 0x04030201 at offset 0x30 so there is no confusion possible.

Four bytes from offset 0x30 can be interpreted as follows:

 - Major clean-up of the L2 cache support code.  The existing mess was
   becoming rather unmaintainable through all the additions that others
   have done over time.  This turns it into a much nicer structure, and
   implements a few performance improvements as well.

 - Clean up some of the CP15 control register tweaks for alignment
   support, moving some code and data into alignment.c

 - DMA properties for ARM, from Santosh and reviewed by DT people.  This
   adds DT properties to specify bus translations we can't discover
   automatically, and to indicate whether devices are coherent.

 - Hibernation support for ARM

 - Make ftrace work with read-only text in modules

 - add suspend support for PJ4B CPUs

 - rework interrupt masking for undefined instruction handling, which
   allows us to enable interrupts earlier in the handling of these
   exceptions.

 - support for big endian page tables

 - fix stacktrace support to exclude stacktrace functions from the
   trace, and add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation so that kprobes
   can record stack traces.

 - Add support for the Cortex-A17 CPU.

 - Remove last vestiges of ARM710 support.

 - Removal of ARM "meminfo" structure, finally converting us solely to
   memblock to handle the early memory initialisation.
