Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] lib: sbi: give platform choice of using single memregion to cover OpenSBI
Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2025 01:34:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251120093440.4533-3-ganboing@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251120093440.4533-1-ganboing@gmail.com>
By default the OpenSBI itself is covered by 2 memregions for RX/RW
sections. This is required by platforms with Smepmp to enforce
proper permissions in M mode. Note: M-mode only regions can't
have RWX permissions with Smepmp. Platforms with traditional PMPs
won't be able to benefit from it, as both regions are effectively
RWX in M mode, but usually it's harmless to so. Now we provide
these platforms with an option to disable this logic. It saves 1
PMP entry. For platforms really in short of PMPs, it does make a
difference.
Note: Platform requesting single OpenSBI memregion must be using
traditional (old) PMP. We expect the platform code to do
the right thing.
