arch, mm: consolidate initialization of SPARSE memory model

2026-01-27T04:02:18+00:00

Every architecture calls sparse_init() during setup_arch() although the
data structures created by sparse_init() are not used until the
initialization of the core MM.

Beside the code duplication, calling sparse_init() from architecture
specific code causes ordering differences of vmemmap and HVO
initialization on different architectures.

Move the call to sparse_init() from architecture specific code to
free_area_init() to ensure that vmemmap and HVO initialization order is
always the same.

arch, mm: consolidate initialization of nodes, zones and memory map

2026-01-27T04:02:18+00:00

To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.

Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map.  Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().

With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code.  Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.

This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.

Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().

After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.

As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

csky: introduce arch_zone_limits_init()

2026-01-27T04:02:14+00:00

Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.

Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

csky: move setup_initrd() to setup.c

2025-03-18T05:06:51+00:00

Memory used by initrd should be reserved as soon as possible before
there any memblock allocations that might overwrite that memory.

This will also help with pulling out memblock_free_all() to the generic
code and reducing code duplication in arch::mem_init().

of/fdt: add dt_phys arg to early_init_dt_scan and early_init_dt_verify

2024-10-29T20:32:45+00:00

 __pa() is only intended to be used for linear map addresses and using
it for initial_boot_params which is in fixmap for arm64 will give an
incorrect value. Hence save the physical address when it is known at
boot time when calling early_init_dt_scan for arm64 and use it at kexec
time instead of converting the virtual address using __pa().

Note that arm64 doesn't need the FDT region reserved in the DT as the
kernel explicitly reserves the passed in FDT. Therefore, only a debug
warning is fixed with this change.

vgacon, arch/*: remove unused screen_info definitions

2023-10-17T08:17:02+00:00

A number of architectures either kept the screen_info definition for
historical purposes as it used to be required by the generic VT code, or
they copied it from another architecture in order to build the VGA console
driver in an allmodconfig build. The mips definition is used by some
platforms, but the initialization on jazz is not needed.

Now that vgacon no longer builds on these architectures, remove the
stale definitions and initializations.

csky: Add memory layout 2.5G(user):1.5G(kernel)

2021-01-12T01:52:40+00:00

There are two ways for translating va to pa for csky:
 - Use TLB(Translate Lookup Buffer) and PTW (Page Table Walk)
 - Use SSEG0/1 (Simple Segment Mapping)

We use tlb mapping 0-2G and 3G-4G virtual address area and SSEG0/1
are for 2G-2.5G and 2.5G-3G translation. We could disable SSEG0
to use 2G-2.5G as TLB user mapping.
