[PATCH] MIPS: ralink: mt7621: do memory detection on KSEG1

[PATCH] MIPS: ralink: mt7621: do memory detection on KSEG1

[Chuanhong Guo]

It's reported that current memory detection code occasionally detects
larger memory under some bootloaders.
Current memory detection code tests whether address space wraps around
on KSEG0, which is unreliable because it's cached.

Rewrite memory size detection to perform the same test on KSEG1 instead.
While at it, this patch also does the following two things:
1. use a fixed pattern instead of a random function pointer as the magic
   value.
2. add an additional memory write and a second comparison as part of the
   test to prevent possible smaller memory detection result due to
   leftover values in memory.

Thanks for your change. I think this will also fix
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202201191557.OISJHNMi-lkp@intel.com/
since you are removing __builtin_memcmp usage.

Thanks for your change. I think this will also fix
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202201191557.OISJHNMi-lkp@intel.com/
since you are removing __builtin_memcmp usage.

No issues here, and it does seem to have fixed the RAM size detection
on my Redmi AC2100. It's always been a very sporadic failure here, so
I'll be keeping an eye on it to see if there are any further
misdetections. :)
In any case, feel free to add my

Someone on Github notified me that this second test pattern is incorrect.
I actually mean to use ~MT7621_MEM_TEST_PATTERN here.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea.                                                [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]

Oops.

As I mentioned in a previous mail, this patch has two cosmetic problems:
1. misplaced bracket in commit message "Fixes" tag
2. incorrect second test pattern: I meant to flip all the bits in the
first pattern,
   but I used "!" instead of "~". Any value will work just fine but it
looks weird
   to construct a zero using !MT7621_MEM_TEST_PATTERN.

Should I send a second patch to fix this patch or send a v2 of the
original patch?
