From: Magnus Damm <damm+renesas@opensource.se>

This prototype patch extends the kernel to also reserve CMA memory
in the top memory bank on R-Car Gen2 boards and ties this larger
CMA area to the DU device for testing purpose.

This top portion of the memory requires 40-bits addressing support
in bus master devices including LPAE for the ARM CPU cores.

The patch assigns a 512 MiB CMA area to the DU device that may be
used with the IPMMU hardware to perform 40-bit bus master access.
Without IPMMU the DU hardware only supports 32-bit addresses.

Tested on r8a7791 Koelsch HDMI output using the modetest utility:
# modetest -M rcar-du -s 33:1024x768@AR24

Not for upstream merge.

Hi Magnus,

Thank you for the patch.

I tried to understand where the setup-rcar-gen2.c code you're patching came 
from. Due to a rebase the commit message of 83850b04ae77 ("ARM: shmobile: 
rcar-gen2: Update for of_get_flat_dt_prop() update") is incorrect, but I've 
traced the original commit to ae8bf91c80b0 ("ARM: shmobile: Add shared R-Car 
Gen2 CMA reservation code") in Simon's tree.

That patch doesn't look like a very good approach to me, and neither does this 
one :-) drivers/staging/board is a hack, and we're starting to abuse it. I 
don't want to see board code coming back through the back door. What's wrong 
with just reserving memory in DT with the reserved-memory bindings and 
assigning it to the DU ?

Right, I recall adding that CMA reservation code.

At the time the Gen2 CMA reservation code was written there was no DT
memory reservation support available.

Regarding this patch, it is just a proof of concept to test allocation
from a high memory address without modifying any hardware description.

Describing device-to-memory bank assignment in DT equals mixing
software policy with hardware description. I prefer to keep the
software policy in C and the hardware description in DT.

If you think there are better ways to reserve memory, why don't you
cook up a counter proposal and post it in a public space? =)

Thanks,

Doing it in DT is the better way in my opinion :-) There are established DT 
bindings for that purpose, and that's what upstream is using.

I'm a bit sceptical about describing this in DT, too, as this is a software
policy, not a hardware description, but it's indeed described in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/reserved-memory.txt

The idea of a DT-like kernel configuration file has been toyed with in the 
past but as far as I know it got abandoned. It was certainly an interesting 
idea, and could possibly have led to a better solution, but today what we have 
is DT. Board files are not the way to go to implement such a feature.
