[PATCH 0/3] MTD physmap: Adding reserved RAM support and fixing reserved_mem limitations
Posted by Gregory CLEMENT 2 weeks ago
Hello,

While working on adding reserved RAM support to the MTD physmap
driver, I encountered a limitation in the kernel's reserved memory
support: although the Device Tree specification allows multiple reg
entries for a memory-region node, the kernel only processed the first
one. This limitation prevented proper support for reserved RAM regions
in MTD.

This series addresses both issues:

First, the reserved memory support is extended to fully support
multiple reg entries per memory-region node, ensuring compliance with
the Device Tree specification.

Then, with this foundation in place, the series updates the MTD
physmap driver to support reserved RAM regions. The DT bindings are
extended to allow memory-region phandles for RAM access, and the
physmap driver is modified to use these regions.
