The tegra_uart_config of the DEBUG_LL code is now placed right at the
start of the .text section after commit which enabled debug output in the
decompressor. Tegra devices are not booting anymore if DEBUG_LL is enabled
since tegra_uart_config data is executes as a code. Fix the misplaced
tegra_uart_config storage by embedding it into the code.

Aha I see the problem.

Please put this into Russell's patch tracker as a fix!

Thanks, I sent the patch to the tracker.

Looks like arch/arm/include/debug/brcmstb.S would need the same
treatment since the implementation was copied from tegra.S.

Good catch, will you be able to test the brcm and make a patch?

Yes, absolutely, building a kernel to test right now.

Thank you.

BTW, I noticed that the problem is more visible on a thumb2 kernel
build, i.e. you should get a more reliable hang on boot. On a non-thumb2
kernel the hanging behaviour seems depends on a device / bootloader. I
haven't tried to figure out what exactly makes the difference, perhaps
it should be a memory layout / state.

To build with a CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL I had to fetch:

https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=9018/2

to avoid a build error, too bad this missed v5.10 final but hopefully it
can make it soon.

With CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y, I am not getting the head.S output where it
prints the start/end of the compressed kernel:

C:0x420800C0-0x4321B0E0->0x4212AB00-0x432C5B20
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

(fainelli@fainelli-desktop) (arm-linux-gcc (GCC) 8.3.0, GNU ld (GNU
Binutils) 2.32) #71 SMP Tue Dec 15 09:53:09 PST 2020

I am only getting:

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

Is that the same for you?

Looking at the disassembly of head.o it definitively has
brcmstb_uart_config in the .text section as the beginning just like you
mentioned in your commit message.

Disassembly of section .text:

00000000 <brcmstb_uart_config>:
   0:   00000001        andeq   r0, r0, r1
        ...
   c:   467c            mov     r4, pc
   e:   f004 4478       and.w   r4, r4, #4160749568     ; 0xf8000000
  12:   f504 4400       add.w   r4, r4, #32768  ; 0x8000
  16:   4678            mov     r0, pc
  18:   42a0            cmp     r0, r4
  1a:   bf3f            itttt   cc
  1c:   48d4            ldrcc   r0, [pc, #848]  ; (370 <LC1+0x8>)
  1e:   4478            addcc   r0, pc
  20:   4284            cmpcc   r4, r0
  22:   f044 0401       orrcc.w r4, r4, #1

  28:   f000 f9aa       blcs    380 <cache_on>

however after applying a fix similar to yours, we do end-up with the
expected data embedded within the code and given brcmstb.S would be
subject to the same issue as tegra.S, it would not hurt.

The VFP fix was applied to the -next very recently, it should propagate
to v5.10 eventually.

No, start/end are printed for both THUMB2 and ARM kernels here.

Have you checked whether start/end printed after applying the fix?

Yes I did, it is not printed when CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y, but it is when
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=n. I don't have a JTAG adapter on this board right
now to single step.
