* [PATCH V2] MIPS: Loongson: Add board_ebase_setup() support @ 2019-11-04 6:09 Huacai Chen 2019-11-07 11:47 ` Jiaxun Yang 2019-11-08 19:11 ` Paul Burton 0 siblings, 2 replies; 6+ messages in thread From: Huacai Chen @ 2019-11-04 6:09 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Ralf Baechle, James Hogan Cc: Paul Burton, Paul Burton, linux-mips, linux-mips, Fuxin Zhang, Zhangjin Wu, Huacai Chen, Huacai Chen Old processors before Loongson-3A2000 have a 32bit ebase register and have no WG bit, new processors since Loongson-3A2000 have a 64bit ebase register and do have the WG bit. Unfortunately, Loongson processors which have the WG bit are slightly different from MIPS R2. This makes the generic ebase setup not suitable for every scenarios. To make Loongson's kernel be more robust, we add a board_ebase_setup() hook to ensure that CKSEG0 is always used for ebase. This is also useful on platforms where BIOS doesn't initialise an appropriate ebase.

Can you describe how the Loongson WG bit differs from the WG bit as architecturally defined? This patch may make things work for you but it doesn't give us any record of what the hardware errata is or what we actually need to do to work with the broken WG bit. For example - right now Loongson kernels don't use the WG bit at all, so what's the problem? It doesn't matter if WG has different behavior if we don't use it. So one option here might be to just continue to not indicate support for the WG bit. It does look like the kernel ought to be ensuring the exception vector it allocates is at a suitable address in this case, and currently isn't. Something like the (untested) patch below ought to address that. In practice though memblock is configured to allocate bottom-up until after this point so it should be unlikely we'll get an unsuitable address, and there's a WARN_ON() in trap_init() that would already tell you if that happened. > To make Loongson's kernel be more robust, we add a board_ebase_setup() > hook to ensure that CKSEG0 is always used for ebase.

I'm not sure why this would help on systems that don't initialize EBase - the kernel unconditionally sets EBase for >= MIPSr2 systems in configure_exception_vector() anyway, and since v5.2 it doesn't even try to inherit whatever the bootloader used.

Maybe this patch is still neccesary. The above two commits surely make it possible to boot with any firmware, but dynamically allocated ebase cannot work perfectly with STR(suspend) and STD(hibernation). STR is fixable, because we can save ebase at suspend and restore it at resume. However, STD is very diffcult to fix, because we cannot assure the ebase allocated by the new kernel is the same as the old kernel, and I think change ebase during kernel switching is dangerous. So could you please consider to accept this patch?
