Flash region needs to be set as cacheable (write back) to increase
performance, if PEI is still XIP on flash or DXE FV is decompressed
from flash FV. However some ARM platforms do not support to set flash
as inner shareable since flash is not normal DDR memory and it will
not respond to cache snoop request, which will causes system hang
after MMU is enabled.
So we need a new ARM memory region attribute WRITE_BACK_NONSHARE for
flash region on these platforms specifically. This attribute will set
the region as write back but not inner shared.

I'd prefer the name
ARM_MEMORY_REGION_ATTRIBUTE_WRITE_BACK_NONSHAREABLE but other than
that, this looks sensible to me. Leif?
And the same for NONSECURE, yes.
With that modification, this sounds like something absolutely required
in this situation.
Does this scenario have any further implications for runtime use?
I don't think so. These attributes are only used to select the
attributes UEFI uses for its own mapping, and they should only be used
for non-DRAM, so they shouldn't leak into the UEFI memory map in a way
the OS would be able to notice.
Agree, and we will convert flash region attribute into "UC" to support
flash write and erase operation in DXE.
We may also add some comment in the code to warn the usage of these two
types :)
Thanks,
Heyi
