[PATCH v5 0/2] xen/riscv: introduce identity mapping
Posted by Oleksii Kurochko 1 year, 4 months ago
The patch series introduces things necessary to implement identity mapping:
  1. Make identity mapping for the entire Xen.
  2. Enable MMU.
  3. Jump to the virtual address world
  4. Remove identity mapping.

Also current patch series introduces the calculation of physical offset before
MMU is enabled as access to physical offset will be calculated wrong after
MMU will be enabled because access to phys_off variable is PC-relative and
in the case when linker address != load address, it will cause MMU fault.

The reason for this patch series can be found here:

---
Changes in V5:
	- update the algo of identity mapping removing.
	- introduce IDENT_AREA_SIZE.
	- introduce turn_on_mmu() function to enable and switch from 1:1 mapping.
	- fix typo in PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT define.
	- update the comment above PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT.
	- update prototype of calc_phys_offset(). now it returns phys_offset.
	- declare phys_offset as static.
	- save returned value of calc_phys_offset to register s2.
---
Changes in V4:
  - drop patch 	[PATCH v3 1/3] xen/riscv: add SPDX tag to config.h as it was
    merged to staging
  - remove definition of ARRAY_SIZE and ROUNDUP as <xen/macors.h> was introduced where these macros are located now.
	- update definition of PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT
	- update the commit message for patch 'xen/riscv: introduce identity mapping'
	- update the comments in head.S
  - update the algo of identity mapping removing 
---
Changes in V3:
 - Update the patch series message.
 - The following patches were merged to staging so droped from the patch series:
   * xen/riscv: add .sbss section to .bss
   * xen/riscv: introduce reset_stack() function
   * xen/riscv: move extern of cpu0_boot_stack to header
   * xen/riscv: add SPDX tags
 - move save/restore of a0/a1 registers from patch 4 to patch 2 ( numbers are
   from the previous patch series version )
 - add SPDX tag in config.h
 - update definition of PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT taking into account identity mapping.
 - refactor remove_identity_mapping() function.
 - add explanatory comments in xen.lds.S and mm.c.
---
Changes in V2:
 - update the patch series message.
 - drop patches from the previous version of the patch series:
   * xen/riscv: add __ASSEMBLY__ guards". ( merged )
   * xen/riscv: make sure that identity mapping isn't bigger then page size
     ( entire Xen is 1:1 mapped so there is no need for the checks from the patch )
 - add .sbss.* and put it befor .bss* .
 - move out reset_stack() to .text section.
 - add '__ro_after_init' for phys_offset variable.
 - add '__init' for calc_phys_offset().
 - declaring variable phys_off as non static as it will be used in head.S.
 - update definition of PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT and the comment above.
 - code style fixes.
 - remove id_addrs array becase entire Xen is mapped.
 - reverse condition for cycle inside remove_identity_mapping().
 - fix page table walk in remove_identity_mapping().
 - save hart_id and dtb_addr before call MMU related C functions
 - use phys_offset variable instead of doing calcultations to get phys offset
   in head.S file. ( it can be easily done as entire Xen is 1:1 mapped now )
 - declare enable_muu() as __init.
 - Update SPDX tags.
 - Add Review-By/Suggested-By for some patches.
 - code style fixes.
