[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 07/17] hw/arm/virt: Dynamic memory map depending on RAM requirements

[Eric Auger <eric.auger@redhat.com>]

Up to now the memory map has been static and the high IO region
base has always been 256GiB.

This patch modifies the virt_set_memmap() function, which freezes
the memory map, so that the high IO range base becomes floating,
located after the initial RAM and the device memory.

The function computes
- the base of the device memory,
- the size of the device memory and
- the highest GPA used in the memory map.

The two former will be used when defining the device memory region
while the latter will be used at VM creation to choose the requested
IPA size.

Setting all the existing highmem IO regions beyond the RAM
allows to have a single contiguous RAM region (initial RAM and
possible hotpluggable device memory). That way we do not need
to do invasive changes in the EDK2 FW to support a dynamic
RAM base.

Still the user cannot request an initial RAM size greater than 255GB.
Also we handle the case where maxmem or slots options are passed,
although no device memory is usable at the moment. In this case, we
just ignore those settings.
