Subject: [PATCH v5 3/8] ARM: idmap: populate identity map pgd at init time
Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2011 15:52:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320767583-21162-4-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1320767583-21162-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com>
When disabling the MMU, it is necessary to take out an identity mapping
for as much of the address space as possible so that the reset path can
be executed using its physical address. This is useful for softbooting
and entering low power states.
This patch allocates a set of pagetables during boot and populates them
with an identity mapping for all of memory apart from a small window
containing the kernel image.
