[PATCH v2 0/4] Prerequisite patches for R82 upstreaming

[PATCH v2 0/4] Prerequisite patches for R82 upstreaming

[Luca Fancellu]

In this serie I've taken out patches from the R82 branch already in the ML[1]
and some new patches I've done based on the current status of staging that will
not impact the current Armv8-R earlyboot work.

[PATCH v2 1/4] common/vmap: Fall back to simple allocator when !HAS_VMAP

[Luca Fancellu]

When HAS_VMAP is disabled, the xv{malloc,zalloc,...} functions
should fall back to the simple x{malloc,zalloc,...} variant,
implement that because MPU systems won't have virtual memory.

Additionally remove VMAP_VIRT_START from vmap.h guards since
MPU systems won't have it defined and protect with #ifdef
CONFIG_HAS_VMAP all the declaration that won't be used in a
MPU system built without HAS_VMAP.

Changes from v1:
 - put back static inline iounmap
 - changed commit message
 - hide not used declaration for system with !HAS_VMAP
 - correct function declared in xvmalloc.h to be static inline
 - prefer '#ifdef' instead of '#if defined' where possible

[PATCH v2 2/4] arm/setup: Move MMU specific extern declarations to mmu/setup.h

[Luca Fancellu]

Move some extern declarations related to MMU structures and define
from asm/setup.h to asm/mmu/setup.h, in order to increase encapsulation
and allow the MPU part to build, since it has no clue about them.

[PATCH v2 3/4] xen/arm: Use vmap_contig instead of __vmap where it's possible

[Luca Fancellu]

Currently the arm code uses __vmap function in few parts to map
physically contiguous pages, vmap_contig was introduced recently
and does the same because it's a wrapper for __vmap, so use the
latter instead of the direct __vmap function.

[PATCH v2 4/4] xen/arm: do not give memory back to static heap

[Luca Fancellu]

From: Penny Zheng <Penny.Zheng@arm.com>

If Xenheap is statically configured in Device Tree, its size is
definite. So, the memory shall not be given back into static heap, like
it's normally done in free_init_memory, etc, once the initialization
is finished.

Extract static_heap flag from init data bootinfo, as it will be needed
after destroying the init data section.
Introduce a new helper xen_is_using_staticheap() to tell whether Xenheap
is statically configured in the Device Tree.

What you're hiding are declarations, not definitions. While this may feel like
splitting hair, the question really is: Do the declarations actually need
hiding? IOW won't it suffice to have the definitions unavailable? While this
would mean that wrong uses are flagged only when linking, we do such all the
time when we expect e.g. DCE to remove actual uses of respective identifiers.

I misunderstood your comment on the previous version and I thought your preference
was to hide the declarations. I’ll try without hiding them and I’ll send the change soon.

I'm somewhat confused by the use of "back" here? Isn't the change all
about init-time behavior, i.e. memory that's handed to the allocator for
the very first time? Else I may be misunderstanding something here, in
which case I'd like to ask for the description to be refined.

Just to double check Misra-wise: Is there a guarantee that this header will
always be included by page-alloc.c, so that the definition of the symbol
has an earlier declaration already visible? I ask because this header
doesn't look like one where symbols defined in page-alloc.c would normally
be declared. And I sincerely hope that this header isn't one of those that
end up being included virtually everywhere.

As to naming: How about using_static_heap()? The xen_ prefix doesn't look to
be carrying any useful information, and the then remaining is_ prefix would
be largely redundant with "using". Plus there surely wants to be a separator
between "static" and "heap".

Yes, I’ve tried to rephrase it, do you think this is more clear?

If the Xen heap is statically configured in Device Tree, its size is
definite, so only the defined memory shall be given to the boot
allocator. Have a check where init_domheap_pages() is called
which takes into account if static heap feature is used.

I’ve read again MISRA rule 8.4 and you are right, I should have included bootfdt.h in
page-alloc.c in order to have the declaration visible before defining static_heap.

I will include the header in page-alloc.c

This reads better, thanks. Follow-on question: Is what is statically
configured for the heap guaranteed to never overlap with anything passed
to init_domheap_pages() in those places that you touch?

Except that, as said, I don't think that header should be included in this file.
Instead I think the declaration wants to move elsewhere.

I think so, the places of the check are mainly memory regions related to boot modules,
when we add a boot module we also do a check in order to see if it clashes with any
reserved regions already defined, which the static heap is part of.

Could you explain me why the question?

Ok sorry, I misunderstood your comment, I thought you were suggesting to have the
declaration visible in that file since we are defining there the variable.

So Julien suggested that file, it was hosted before in common/device-tree/device-tree.c,
see the comment here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/xen-devel/patch/20241115105036.218418-6-luca.fancellu@arm.com/#26125054

Since it seems you disagree with Julien, could you suggest a more suitable place?

Well, if there was a chance of overlap, then parts of the free region would
need to go one way, and the rest the other way.

Anything defined in page-alloc.c should by default have its declaration in
xen/mm.h, imo. Exceptions would need justification.

Obviously a possible alternative is to move the definition, not the declaration.

I would be fine to have the declaration in xen/mm.h, I just need to import xen/mm.h in bootfdt.h so that it is visible to
“using_static_heap”, @Julien would you be ok with that?

static_heap.

This is to avoid adding #ifdef for every user.
