Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] powerpc/mmu: do MMU type discovery before crashkernel reservation
Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2026 20:03:54 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260708143357.673251-2-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260708143357.673251-1-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com>
Crashkernel reservation on high memory depends on the MMU type, so
finalize the MMU type before calling arch_reserve_crashkernel().
With the changes introduced here, early_radix_enabled() becomes usable
and will be used in arch_reserve_crashkernel() in the upcoming patch.
early_radix_enabled() depends on cur_cpu_spec->mmu_features to find
out if the radix MMU is enabled. The radix MMU bit in mmu_features is
discovered from the FDT and kernel configs. To make sure the MMU type is
finalized before arch_reserve_crashkernel() is called, the function that
scans the FDT and sets mmu_features, along with some bits from
mmu_early_type_finalize(), has been moved above
arch_reserve_crashkernel().
