The Amlogic Meson GXBB secure monitor uses part of the memory space, this
patch adds these reserved zones and redefines the usable memory range for
each boards.

I added your patch to next-20161212.
My kernel config is available as
https://github.com/xypron/kernel-odroid-c2/blob/5ec4be0c1b45297bbcbc1ce3d3d787e45dac66b6/config/config-next-20161212
To build the same kernel just run ./build-dpkg.sh (or make) on
https://github.com/xypron/kernel-odroid-c2/tree/5ec4be0c1b45297bbcbc1ce3d3d787e45dac66b6
Free showed 0x2301000 less total memory available than next-20161209
without the patch.
When git cloning linux-next I got the following error on Hardkernel
Odroid C2:

Hello Neil,
In
https://github.com/hardkernel/linux/blob/odroidc2-3.14.y/arch/arm64/boot/dts/meson64_odroidc2.dts
the secos region does not exist. In linux-next I find no reference to
the secos label. Where is the consumer of the region defined?
> +
> + pstore: pstore {
> + reg = <0x0 0x07300000 0x0 0x100000>;

In
https://github.com/hardkernel/linux/blob/odroidc2-3.14.y/arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/gxbb_skt.dts
and other files pstore uses a different position
(reg = <0x0 0x20000000 0x0 0x100000>;).
Why are we moving this?
Should this region be marked
compatible = "ramoops"; ?
Cf. Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/ramoops.txt.
It would be nice if you could add a short description of each reserved
area to the commit message.

Hi Heinrich,
Thanks for testing and for the report,
we are still struggling into finding what are these zones and how to label them correctly.
We need to identify the zones on all boards, the patch I provided works on a non-odroid-c2 and gxm and gxl boards.

Hi Neil,
the 3.14 Ubuntu kernel provided by Hardkernel for Odroid C2 has no fixed
address reserved-memory inside the first 2GB and does not show the
problem I have been observing with the linux-next kernel.
Many zones for interfacing different peripherals are defined but these
are all above 2GB.
For small loads I never saw any oops. So I recommend that on the boards
which you think are working, make a full linux-next git checkout and try
to build the kernel natively for the respective board.
Best regards

Hello Neil,
the configuration below works for me on the Hardkernel Odroid C2.
ramoops is needed for CONFIG_PSTORE_RAM.
Debian Stretch has CONFIG_PSTORE_RAM=m. Same is true for Fedora.
I have chosen the address arbitrarily. To accommodate 512 MB boards we
would have to put it below 0x20000000.
The size parameters are the same as in hisilicon/hi6220-hikey.dts and
qcom-apq8064-asus-nexus7-flo.dts.
linux,cma is used for contiguous memory assignment. I have taken the
align parameter from arm-src-kernel-2016-08-18-26e194264c.tar.gz
provided by Amlogic at
http://openlinux.amlogic.com:8000/download/ARM/kernel/ .
See Documentation/DMA-API.txt for the usage of align.
They use the same value 0x400000 for all GXBB boards.
So we want to put this zone into meson-gxbb.dtsi.
secmon is used by drivers/firmware/meson/meson_sm.c.
Amlogic uses the same address range for all 64bit boards.
memory@0 {
device_type = "memory";
linux,usable-memory = <0x0 0x1000000 0x0 0x7f000000>;
};
reserved-memory {
#address-cells = <0x2>;
#size-cells = <0x2>;
ranges;
ramoops@0x23f00000 {
compatible = "ramoops";
reg = <0x0 0x23f00000 0x0 0x100000>;
record-size = <0x20000>;
console-size = <0x20000>;
ftrace-size = <0x20000>;
};
secmon: secmon {
compatible = "amlogic, aml_secmon_memory";
reg = <0x0 0x10000000 0x0 0x200000>;
no-map;
};
linux,cma {
compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
reusable;
size = <0x0 0xbc00000>;
alignment = <0x0 0x400000>;
linux,cma-default;
};
};

Hello Neil,
it really makes a difference if we write
memory@0 {
device_type = "memory";
linux,usable-memory = <0x0 0x1000000 0x0 0x7f000000>;
};
or
memory@0 {
device_type = "memory";
reg = <0x0 0x1000000 0x0 0x7f000000>;
};
The second version leads to failure of the Odroid C2.
When I looked at /sys/firmware/fdt I saw this difference:
--- fails
+++ works
memory@0 {
- device_type = "memory";
reg = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0x78000000>;
+ device_type = "memory";
+ linux,usable-memory = <0x0 0x1000000 0x0 0x7f000000>;
};
I found the following sentence in the NXP forum:
In case you want to overwrite the memory usage passed from u-boot, you
can use "linux,usable-memory".

The Odroid-C2 is in mainline U-Boot. Please submit a patch to U-Boot
instead of forcing the creation of unnecessary new .dts files onto
everyone due to hardcoded linux,usable-memory properties. In fact, it
already reserves 0x1000000, so it seems you are merely using an older
U-Boot.

I would bet that the upper limit is unrelated here.

Andreas

Hi Andreas,
I really disagree about relying on any work or properties added by any bootloader here, Amlogic SoCs has
a lot of u-boot version in the field, and the Odroid-C2 is part of this.
Even if Odroid-c2 is in mainline U-Boot or not, the mainline Linux kernel should work using
any U-boot version even with the one provided by Amlogic on their openlinux distribution channel.
Neil

That is not the position of the kernel maintainers though. They
deliberately rely on timers being enabled before entering Linux, which
broke my afboot-stm32 (which I could fix) as well as s5pv210 and vf610
based platforms by F+S (which remain broken to date).
And I documented how to chainload mainline U-Boot from downstream
Amlogic U-Boot, so it is easily fixable on Meson. The only thing missing
is Carlo resubmitting his MMC patches.
A bug somewhere does not justify breaking the whole Meson-gx* .dts
design for everyone, especially not without CC'ing me as the original
creator!

Andreas
