Subject: [PATCHv10 4/4] memory: reserve from start_addr_sp to initial_relocaddr
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 10:50:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604155038.3182-5-rs@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604155038.3182-1-rs@ti.com>
From: Randolph Sapp <rs@ti.com>
Add a new global data struct member called initial_relocaddr. This
stores the original value of relocaddr, directly from setup_dest_addr.
This is specifically to avoid any adjustments made by other init
functions.
Reserve the memory from gd->start_addr_sp - CONFIG_STACK_SIZE to
gd->initial_relocaddr instead of gd->ram_top. This allows platform
specific relocation addresses to work without unnecessarily painting
over a large range.

v7:
- Reinstate bank hopping logic for U-Boot reserved region
- Update description for gd->initial_relocaddr, make it clear this is
also an exclusive value
- Leave the PRAM region out of the reservation. Previous commit messages
indicate that this is intended.
v8:
- Adjust initial_relocaddr doc string
