Hi all,
This series is the second set of patches in the ongoing work to
introduce support for MPU systems and Cortex R82 in Xen.
The patches in this series implement the necessary logic to map and
unmap the Device Tree Blob in the early stages of the boot process.
Changes from v3:
- Changes mentioned in individual patches
Cheers,
Hari
Luca Fancellu (4):
arm/mpu: Find MPU region by range
xen/arm: Introduce flags_has_rwx helper
arm/mpu: Implement early_fdt_map support in MPU systems
arm/mpu: Implement remove_early_mappings for MPU systems

Implement a function to find the index of a MPU region in the xen_mpumap
MPU region array. This function will be used in future commits to
implement creating and destroying MPU regions.

Introduce flags_has_rwx() function that will check if a
mapping is both writable and executable when modifying
or updating the mapping.
This check was already present in pt.c but since it will
be used also for MPU systems, it's wrapped into a function
now.

Introduce map_pages_to_xen() that is implemented using a new helper,
xen_mpumap_update(), which is responsible for updating Xen MPU memory
mapping table(xen_mpumap), including creating a new entry, updating
or destroying an existing one, it is equivalent to xen_pt_update in MMU.
This commit only implements populating a new entry in Xen MPU memory mapping
table(xen_mpumap).

From: Penny Zheng <Penny.Zheng@arm.com>
This commit expands xen_mpumap_update/xen_mpumap_update_entry to include
destroying an existing entry.
We define a new helper "disable_mpu_region_from_index" to disable the MPU
region based on index. If region is within [0, 31], we could quickly
disable the MPU region through PRENR_EL2 which provides direct access to the
PRLAR_EL2.EN bits of EL2 MPU regions.
Rignt now, we only support destroying a *WHOLE* MPU memory region,
part-region removing is not supported, as in worst case, it will
leave two fragments behind.

From: Luca Fancellu <luca.fancellu@arm.com>
Implement the function early_fdt_map(), which is responsible for mapping
the Device Tree Blob in the early stages of the boot process, for MPU
systems.
We make use of the map_pages_to_xen() and destroy_xen_mappings() APIs.
In particular the latter function is necessary in the case that the
initial mapping of the fdt_header is insufficient to cover the entire
DTB, as we must destroy and then remap the region due to the APIs no
providing support for extending the size of an existing region.

Changes from v1:
- Add Ayan's R-b
Changes from v2:
- Rename mapped_fdt_paddr -> mapped_fdt_base
- Remove full stops
- Add sanity check for MAX_FDT_SIZE
- Improve comment regarding early return when DTB already mapped
Changes from v3:
- Use ASSERT instead of conditional check that
`mapped_fdt_base == INVALID_PADDR`

NIT: In this patch you start adding mpu: prefix, even though other messages do
not have it. I don't think it's needed.
