[PATCH 0/3] of: dts: enable memory@0 quirk for PPC32 only

[PATCH 0/3] of: dts: enable memory@0 quirk for PPC32 only

[Leif Lindholm]

drivers/of/fdt.c contains a workaround for a missing memory type
entry on longtrail firmware. Make that quirk PPC32 only, and while
at it - fix up the .dts files in the tree currently working only
because of that quirk.

[PATCH 1/3] arm: dts: add device_type="memory" for ste-ccu8540

[Leif Lindholm]

The current .dts for ste-ccu8540 lacks a 'device_type = "memory"' for
its memory node, relying on an old ppc quirk in order to discover its
memory. Add this, to permit that quirk to be made ppc only.

There are no systems like this deployed so this patch set will not
affect anything in the wild.

I may as well take all three of these patches through my tree (I've
changed my mind on the last one). There are actually not a huge number
of systems with ram starting at 0, so the impact is contained.

Applied, thanks.

[PATCH 3/3] of: Handle memory@0 node on PPC32 only

[Leif Lindholm]

In order to deal with an firmware bug on a specific ppc32 platform
(longtrail), early_init_dt_scan_memory() looks for a node called
memory@0 on all platforms. Restrict this quirk to ppc32 kernels only.

This breaks backwards compatibilty with old DTSes (at least on ARM/MIPS,
where you added the missing property in patches 1 and 2 of the series)?

For the Longtrail, I don't care much anymore, as mine died in 2004.
AFAIK, there have never been many users anyway.

As Rob said in response to 0/3, the MIPSs would likely not be affected,
since they embed the DT.

There are still a few mentions of it under arch/powerpc/, so I wouldn't
want to be the one to kill it off...

How about the below v2 3/3 to address the ARM platform?

Leif

Subject: [PATCH] of: arm: powerpc: Restrict memory@0 node handling to
 affected platforms

In order to deal with a firmware bug on a specific ppc32 platform
(longtrail), early_init_dt_scan_memory() looks for a node called
memory@0 on all platforms, for all nodes lacking a device_type.
Restrict this quirk to ppc32 and the arm mach-ux500 platforms (one of
which has depended on this special handling).

I do not like this because it would not scale to many quirks. As I
said,, my preference here would be to just add a WARN.

The other option is get approval to break compatibility on the ST
platform. It may not be a concern on certain platforms.

I would very much like to be able to remove the quirk entirely for arm64
if possible, which would require more than the addition of a WARN.

Lee, would you be able to provide an answer either way so we can get
the discussion moving?

The problem with this approach is that selecting one board that needs it
automatically makes it active for all boards. It would need to be
something more like the following:

With a list of compatible properties for affected boards.

That looks sane to me.

Does anyone have a LongTrail DT to hand, and if so does the root have a
compatible string? From grepping through the kernel I could only find a
model string ("IBM,LongTrail").

Is anyone aware of strings other than that and "st-ericsson,ccu8540" to
look out for?

Cheers,
Mark.

Actually, on LongTrail this can be removed from the common code
entirely. It has real open firmware and PowerPC already has the
infrastructure for fixing up the device tree.

Here's a draft patch that I've compile tested, but nothing else.

I would certainly be happy with that.

Consider my 3/3 withdrawn.

And if the kernel proper will stop honoring nodes with no type,
there is no need for the stub to treat those specially either.

So, after thinking about it some more, I've changed my minde about the
whole thing again. The impact is quite contained because there weren't a
lot of systems that had ram based at 0. I'm going to commit this patch,
but I'll include a note in the commit text that if it causes trouble for
anyone that they should yell and I'll revert it. I don't think it will
though.

I'm not worried about these MIPS dts files because they are all
built-in, but you are breaking compatibility with old dtbs for this
ARM board.

Apart from the current code permitting recreating a 15+ year old
firmware bug into completely new platform ports?

Because the UEFI stub for arm/arm64 needs to delete all of the "memory"
nodes from the DT. And it would be nice to at least not have to compile
the "and also delete anything called memory@0" into the arm64 image. Or
any image not including support for affected platforms.

I would prefer to see a "WARN_ON(!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC32));" added here.

Really, I would like to see quirks like this fixed up out of line from
the normal flow somewhat like how PCI quirks are handled. So in this
example, we would just add the missing property to the dtb for the
broken platform before doing the memory scan. That does then require
libfdt which is something I'm working on.

I don't see why you would handle that in the EFI stub. Given our lack
of validation, I can see there is a chance this happens but I think it
is pretty small. Given we only have a ARM board, I'd say we are doing
surprisingly well.

In addition to, or instead of, the QUIRK ifdef?

Getting rid of all this handling from generic code would clearly be
preferable. Is that code going in in the near future, or could we add
the quirk as a stopgap?

I'm not too bothered personally, but Mark Rutland handed me a patch to
improve the memory node handling in the stub, and he seemed to really
want this there. You guys can fight it out :)

What would be the effect of the UEFI code adding all its memblocks,
minus the reserved areas, and then the DT code doing a memblock_add
of all RAM (including reserved areas)? Would memblock_reserve()s on
the protected regions suffice to prevent crazy stuff from happening?

Instead of because I don't see how you handle the ARM board
compatibility with the ifdef. (And please, no ifdef for that board).

Some sort of quirk infrastructure is not going to happen soon. It's
just an idea bouncing in my head ATM.

Simply put, we shouldn't put work-arounds in new code for new platforms.

So use UEFI to add the memory, but then add reserved areas with DT?
I'm not sure I follow, but even if I did I don't know memblock code
well enough to say what it would do.

Umm, according to my memory as well as my sent mail folder, I cc:d you
on v2 of part 3. Could you have a look at that, please?

A WARN_ON would still mean this ancient workaround for a specific ppc32
platform remains enabled on ~10 architectures that don't use it.

No, to add memory and reserved areas based on UEFI memory map.
And then add any memory@0/!type nodes as well, if they're left around.

If we did end up with stray memory@0/!type nodes, we could initialise
memblock multiple times with overlapping but incompatible areas.
And I don't know if that would be a problem. Which makes me a little
bit nervous.

I completely agree.

In fact, for Leif's purposes, I would rather have a flag when booting via
UEFI, and make the kernel skip the memory node parsing if the UEFI
memory map is available. Then the stub doesn't need to do any munging of
the DTB at all.

OK. So do we keep this around on unaffected architectures in perpetuity?

Or can there be some cut-off date when the majority of DT-enabled
platforms can stop including this workaround which permits new incorrect
DTs to be implemented so long as they are incorrect in this particular
way?

The reason for me doing that is because we (including you) agreed at
the discussion held during LCU13 that this was the safest way of
preventing "mischief" like userland trying to read information from
/proc/device-tree...

I'm not the most consistent of people. I often change my mind and then
have no recollection of ever thinking differently.

Userland reading from /proc/device-tree isn't so much a problem, but
kernel drivers doing it might be.

But, regardless of whether or not the stub clears out the memory
nodes, it is still I think good practice for the kernel to make the
decision to ignore memory nodes, and not rely on them being cleared
correctly.

And that is fine, but you were not the only person agreeing.

I also remember you saying that relaxing restrictions later on is a lot
easier than tightening them. On that basis, can we please get the UEFI
set merged before we start redefining the stub/kernel protocol which was
agreed at LCU (November last year) after spending a month or two trying
to get sufficient number of interested parties in the same room?

I'd be fine with a patch that can enable the workaround selectively for
specific machines. Some people will still hit breakage, but we can fix
that by adding their machine to the quirk list.
