Just like the for the embedded device tree relocation, we could then probably use gd->reloc_off instead of CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE. I'm just not sure this really works for all boards, but it would be worth a try to push after this release is out.

OK, I have tried, but it seems it's not that easy: some boards override the initial gd->env_addr by setting CONFIG_ENV_ADDR. So if this is outside of U-Boot's pre-relocation range, it clearly should not be relocated. One might find an improved way to relocate gd->env_addr if it is internal (e.g. checking the range to be in pre-relocation?). But simply removing the EXTRA_ENV_RELOC does not seem to work.

Well, if we unconditionally alter gd->env_addr by gd->reloc_off, boards that have their initial gd->env_addr outside of the initial binary can be fixed only by changing their behaviour. I don't know how widely used this feature is, but since it's a config option (CONFIG_ENV_ADDR), how would we know? So to me that means we still have to make this overridable and could change the "default" state of such an option only. Meaning that the default is "relocate gd->env_addr" with an option to leave it. But is this really worth breaking existing boards? Simon ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 20+ messages in thread

Have a look at env_sf_init() in env/sf.c (called from env_init(), which in turn is called from board_init_f()). There gd->env_addr is initialized by a config setting. If this user-supplied address is outside of the binary, relocating it is wrong, isn't it? Anyway, I'm off for 2 weeks now (holiday time here) with some email access at most, so I'll continue on this when I get back.

Hmm, yes, *I do*, but reading env/sf.c it seems like there *are* ways to have this initial environment located outside of the initial binary hence making relocation invalidate it. Now I'm in no position to see if this is an error or legal usage of the code as it was meant to be... So I think we have two options: a) apply CONFIG_SYS_EXTRA_ENV_RELOC for socfpga or b) push a patch that always relocates the initial environment and see if someone cares... Which of the two do you prefer? Simon ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 20+ messages in thread

AT least nand, flash and nvram env drivers also can put gd->env_addr at a different, configurable address. The only way to auto-relocate here would be to have a flag that tells us what to do. Or we could check if gd->env_addr is in the range of relocated code. But the whole code in that area just pretty much confuses me... Simon ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 20+ messages in thread

So rather than making CONFIG_SYS_EXTRA_ENV_RELOC configurable, we could derive it (or a similar option) by depending on CONFIG_ENV_ADDR not being defined? That might work. But I'm yet not sure if CONFIG_ENV_ADDR is the only option triggering memory-mapped env storage. And in the end, maybe not all memory-mapped storages are affected. This only affects memory-mapped storage that is avaiable before relocation (so without drivers, probably). If it's really worth trying to fix this in a generic way while risking to break other configs I cannot test, then I can prepare a patch.
