I just debugged down to this patch because of boot failures with the rpi4. Then I found this thread. I had always assumed that SystemIO was x86/PIO, and SystemMemory was defined as MMIO but on arm we would have to determine if the memory region was described in the uefi memory map as actual system ram, and if not assume device memory. I was looking at tweaking acpi_map() to check that similar to what is happening on !arm64. Gotta run, but throwing that out there since it seems a possible fix without creating a new OpregionType to differentiate actual memory vs MMIO. > >> I am left with little choice: I assume the best thing I could do >> to fix the original bug is to use ioremap_* in acpi_data_show() >> instead of acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to map that memory with >> specific attributes (for BERT error regions, they must be RAM >> so, _hopefully_, we know it can be mapped with eg normal memory >> mappings). >> >> Thoughts ? >> > > One thing I just realized is that the EFI memory map is not a complete > solution to begin with, as it may not cover hot/coldplugged memory > regions that are only described via ACPI. > > Did you make any progress with the eMAG? >
