linux-stable.git/arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c, branch v3.7 Linux kernel stable tree arm64: Ignore memory blocks below PHYS_OFFSET 2012-10-18T19:14:00+00:00 Catalin Marinas catalin.marinas@arm.com 2012-10-16T11:00:29+00:00 f71a1a42667f576ec736bb1200eba2118fee3a22 According to Documentation/arm64/booting.txt, the kernel image must be loaded at a pre-defined offset from the start of RAM so that the kernel can calculate PHYS_OFFSET based on this address. If the DT contains memory blocks below this PHYS_OFFSET, report them and ignore the corresponding memory range. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

arm64: Kernel booting and initialisation 2012-09-17T09:24:45+00:00 Catalin Marinas catalin.marinas@arm.com 2012-03-05T11:49:27+00:00 9703d9d7f77ce129621f7d80a844822e2daa7008 The patch adds the kernel booting and the initial setup code. Documentation/arm64/booting.txt describes the booting protocol on the AArch64 Linux kernel. This is subject to change following the work on boot standardisation, ACPI.
