This series is the second version of Bo Gan's L2 LIM series. Original author hasn't sent v2 for almost 2 months, so I decided to take over this series.
Background information: JH7110 SPL runs in L2 LIM (2M in size mapped at 0x8000000). It consists of 16 0x20000 sized regions, each one can be used as either L2 cache way or SRAM (not both). From top to bottom, there're ways 0-15. The way 0 is always enabled, at most 0x1e0000 can be used. In SPL, we don't enable any cache ways, thus all 15 (except way 0) ways can be used. However, due to HW requirement, we must zero the LIM before use. This is because ECC is applied to LIM, and if not cleared first, the ECC part is invalid, which can trigger ECC errors when reading/writing data. There are several issues currently. We clear L2 LIM from __bss_end to 0x81FFFFF in `harts_early_init`. This is wrong because: 1. Each hart (in the middle of a function call) overwriting its own stack and other harts' stacks. (data-race and data-corruption) 2. Lottery winner hart can be doing `board_init_f_init_reserve`, while other harts're in the middle of zeroing L2 LIM. (data-race) Changes since v1: - Seperate single patch into several patches Shengyu Qu (3): riscv: Kconfig: Add SPL_ZERO_MEM_BEFORE_USE riscv: Add ZERO_MEM_BEFORE_USE implementation riscv: cpu: jh7110: Select SPL_ZERO_MEM_BEFORE_USE arch/riscv/Kconfig | 8 ++++++++ arch/riscv/cpu/jh7110/Kconfig | 1 + arch/riscv/cpu/jh7110/spl.c | 25 ------------------------- arch/riscv/cpu/start.S | 12 ++++++++++++ common/init/board_init.c | 3 +++ 5 files changed, 24 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) -- 2.41.0
