Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ARC: [axs10x] Specify reserved memory for frame buffer
Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2016 17:35:01 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461767701-12208-3-git-send-email-abrodkin@synopsys.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1461767701-12208-1-git-send-email-abrodkin@synopsys.com>

Allocation of a frame buffer memory in a special memory region
allows bypassing of so-called IO Coherency aperture
which is typically set as a range 0x8z-0xAz.

I.e. all data traffic to PGU bypasses IO Coherency block
and saves its bandwidth for other peripherals.

Even though for AXS101 (which sorts ARC770 CPU) IOC is not
an option for a sake of keeping one DT description for the
base-board (axs10x_mb.dtsi) we're still defining reserved
memory location in the very end of DDR.
