of/fdt: Remove PPC32 longtrail hack in memory scan

2018-08-07T18:05:54+00:00

When the OF code was originally made common by Grant in commit 51975db0b733 ("of/flattree: merge early_init_dt_scan_memory() common code") (Feb 2010), the common code inherited a hack to handle PPC "longtrail" machines, which had a "memory@0" node with no device_type. That check was then made to only apply to PPC32 in b44aa25d20e2 ("of: Handle memory@0 node on PPC32 only") (May 2014). But according to Paul Mackerras the "longtrail" machines are long dead, if they were ever seen in the wild at all. If someone does still have one, we can handle this firmware wart in powerpc platform code. So remove the hack once and for all. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Rob Herring

earlycon: Use a pointer table to fix __earlycon_table stride

2018-04-23T08:06:59+00:00

Commit 99492c39f39f ("earlycon: Fix __earlycon_table stride") tried to fix __earlycon_table stride by forcing the earlycon_id struct alignment to 32 and asking the linker to 32-byte align the __earlycon_table symbol. This fix was based on commit 07fca0e57fca92 ("tracing: Properly align linker defined symbols") which tried a similar fix for the tracing subsystem. However, this fix doesn't quite work because there is no guarantee that gcc will place structures packed into an array format. In fact, gcc 4.9 chooses to 64-byte align these structs by inserting additional padding between the entries because it has no clue that they are supposed to be in an array. If we are unlucky, the linker will assign symbol "__earlycon_table" to a 32-byte aligned address which does not correspond to the 64-byte aligned contents of section "__earlycon_table". To address this same problem, the fix to the tracing system was subsequently re-implemented using a more robust table of pointers approach by commits: 3d56e331b653 ("tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer array") 654986462939 ("tracepoints: Fix section alignment using pointer array") e4a9ea5ee7c8 ("tracing: Replace trace_event struct array with pointer array") Let's use this same "array of pointers to structs" approach for EARLYCON_TABLE.

of/fdt: use memblock_virt_alloc for early alloc

2018-01-08T14:24:34+00:00

memblock_virt_alloc() works for both memblock and bootmem, so use it and make early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch a static function. The arches using bootmem define early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch as either: __alloc_bootmem(size, align, __pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)) or: alloc_bootmem_align(size, align) Both of these evaluate to the same thing as does memblock_virt_alloc for bootmem. So we can disable the arch specific functions by making early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch static and they can be removed in subsequent commits. Cc: Frank Rowand Signed-off-by: Rob Herring

of/fdt: skip unflattening of disabled nodes

2017-10-16T18:43:29+00:00

For static DT usecases, we don't need the disabled nodes and can skip unflattening. This saves a significant amount of RAM in memory constrained cases. In one example on STM32F469, the RAM usage goes from 118K to 26K. There are a few cases in the kernel that modify the status property dynamically. These all are changes from enabled to disabled, depend on OF_DYNAMIC or are not FDT based (PDT based). Tested-by: Nicolas Pitre Reviewed-by: Frank Rowand Signed-off-by: Rob Herring

of/fdt: only store the device node basename in full_name

2017-10-03T20:02:11+00:00

With dependencies on a statically allocated full path name converted to use %pOF format specifier, we can store just the basename of node, and the unflattening of the FDT can be simplified. This commit will affect the remaining users of full_name. After analyzing these users, the remaining cases should only change some print messages. The main users of full_name are providing a name for struct resource. The resource names shouldn't be important other than providing /proc/iomem names. We no longer distinguish between pre and post 0x10 dtb formats as either a full path or basename will work. However, less than 0x10 formats have been broken since the conversion to use libfdt (and no one has cared). The conversion of the unflattening code to be non-recursive also broke pre 0x10 formats as the populate_node function would return 0 in that case. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring
