Except mapping of FDT, it is also printing command line passed by
a DTB and initialize bootinfo from a DTB.

... it could do with clarifying why this needs calling from assembly
code. Mapping the FDT clearly looks like something that wants doing
from start_xen(), i.e. from C code.

You don't use the return value anywhere below. What use is the local var
then?

fdt_map() expected to work while MMU is off as it is using
setup_initial_mapping() which is working with physical address.

I returned just for debug ( to see what is the fdt size ), it can be
dropped now.

Somewhat related to what Jan is asking. You only seem to part the FDT in start_xen(). So why do you need to call fdt_map() that early? Cheers, -- Julien Grall

Hmm, interesting. When the MMU is off, what does "map" mean? Yet then it feels I'm misunderstanding what you're meaning to tell me ... Jan

Let's look at examples of the code:
1. The first thing issue will be here:
void* __init early_fdt_map(paddr_t fdt_paddr)
{
unsigned long dt_phys_base = fdt_paddr;
unsigned long dt_virt_base;
unsigned long dt_virt_size;
BUILD_BUG_ON(MIN_FDT_ALIGN < 8);
if ( !fdt_paddr || fdt_paddr % MIN_FDT_ALIGN || fdt_paddr % SZ_2M
||
fdt_totalsize(fdt_paddr) > BOOT_FDT_VIRT_SIZE )
MMU doesn't now about virtual address of fdt_paddr as fdt_paddr wasn't
mapped.
2. In setup_initial_mapping() we have HANDLE_PGTBL() where pgtbl is a
pointer to physical address ( which also should be mapped in MMU if we
want to access it after MMU is enabled ):
#define HANDLE_PGTBL(curr_lvl_num)
\
index = pt_index(curr_lvl_num, page_addr);
\
if ( pte_is_valid(pgtbl[index]) )
\
{
\
/* Find L{ 0-3 } table */
\
pgtbl = (pte_t *)pte_to_paddr(pgtbl[index]);
\
}
\
else
\
{
\
/* Allocate new L{0-3} page table */
\
if ( mmu_desc->pgtbl_count == PGTBL_INITIAL_COUNT )
\
{
\
early_printk("(XEN) No initial table available\n");
\
/* panic(), BUG() or ASSERT() aren't ready now. */
\
die();
\
}
\
mmu_desc->pgtbl_count++;
\
pgtbl[index] = paddr_to_pte((unsigned long)mmu_desc-
>next_pgtbl, \
PTE_VALID);
\
pgtbl = mmu_desc->next_pgtbl;
\
mmu_desc->next_pgtbl += PAGETABLE_ENTRIES;
\
}
So we can't use setup_initial_mapping() when MMU is enabled as there is
a part of the code which uses physical address which are not mapped.
We have only mapping for for liner_start <-> load_start and the small
piece of code in text section ( _ident_start ):
setup_initial_mapping(&mmu_desc,
linker_start,
linker_end,
load_start);
if ( linker_start == load_start )
return;
ident_start = (unsigned long)turn_on_mmu &XEN_PT_LEVEL_MAP_MASK(0);
ident_end = ident_start + PAGE_SIZE;
setup_initial_mapping(&mmu_desc,
ident_start,
ident_end,
ident_start);
We can use setup_initial_mapping() when MMU is enabled only in case
when linker_start is equal to load_start.
As an option we can consider for as a candidate for identaty mapping
also section .bss.page_aligned where root and nonroot page tables are
located.
Does it make sense now?

I think so, yet at the same time it only changes the question: Why is it
that you absolutely need to use setup_initial_mapping()? Surely down the
road there are going to be more thing that need mapping relatively early,
but after the MMU was enabled.

Add Julien as he asked basically the same question in another thread.

There is no strict requirement to use setup_initial_mapping(). That
function is available to me at the moment, and I haven't found a better
option other than reusing what I currently have.
If not to use setup_initial_mapping() then it is needed to introduce
xen_{un}map_table(), create_xen_table(), xen_pt_next_level(),
xen_pt_update{_entry}(), map_pages_to_xen(). What I did a little bit
later here:
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/olkur/xen/-/commit/a4619d0902e0a012ac2f709d31621a8d499bca97
Am I confusing something?
Could you please recommend me how to better?

For sure, but for mapping other things it would be introduced
setup_mm() and necessary functions to implementinitialization and
handling of mm.

I think you've sorted this for yourself already, judging from subsequent
communication on this thread, where you indicate you'll introduce
map_pages_to_xen() first. That's the way I'd have expected you to go.

I am not very familiar with the code base for RISC-V, but looking at the context in the patch, it seems you will still have the identity mapping mapped until start_xen(). I assume we don't exactly know where the loader will put Xen in memory. Which means that the region may clash with your defined runtime regions (such as the FDT). Did I misunderstand anything? That's one of the reason on Arm we are trying to enable the MMU very early. The only thing we setup is a mapping for Xen (and earlyprintk) all the rest will be mapped once the MMU is on. With that, the only thing you need to take care off the runtime Xen address overlapping with the identity mapping. Cheers, -- Julien Grall

We have identity mapping only for a small piece of .text section:
. = ALIGN(IDENT_AREA_SIZE);
_ident_start = .;
*(.text.ident)
_ident_end = .;
All other will be identically mapped only in case of linker address is
equal to load address.

I am not really get what is the issue here.
If we are speaking about physical regions then loader will guarantee
that Xen and FDT regions don't overlap.
If we are speaking about virtual regions then Xen will check that
nothing is overlaped. And the virtual regions are mapped so high so I
am not sure that loader will put something there. ( FDT in Xen is
mapped to 0xffffffffc0200000 ).
Could you please clarify what I am missing?

It makes sense. Then I have to introduce map_pages_to_xen() first and
then early_fdt_map().

( FDT in Xen is > mapped to 0xffffffffc0200000 ) Never say never :). On Arm, some 64-bit HW (such as ADLink AVA platform) has the RAM starting very high and load Xen around 8TB. For Arm, we still decided to put a limit (10TB) where Xen can be loaded but this is mainly done for convenience (otherwise it is a bit more complicated to get off the identity mapping). We still have a check in place to ensure that Xen is not loaded above 10TB. If you map the FDT within the same L1. Cheers, -- Julien Grall
