[PATCH v3 0/4] Boot RISC-V kernel from any 4KB aligned address
From: Anup Patel
Date: Mon Mar 25 2019 - 05:23:04 EST
This patchset primarily extends initial page table setup using fixmap
to boot Linux RISC-V kernel (64bit and 32bit) from any 4KB aligned address.
We also add 32bit defconfig to allow people to try 32bit Linux RISC-V
kernel as well.
The patchset is based on Linux-5.1-rc2 and tested on SiFive Unleashed
board and QEMU virt machine.
It can also be found in riscv_setup_vm_v3 branch of
https//github.com/avpatel/linux.git
Changes since v2:
- Dropped PATCH2 because we have separate fix for Linux-5.1-rcX
- Moved PATCH5 to PATCH2
- Moved PATCH4 to PATCH3
- The "Booting kernel from any 4KB aligned address" is now PATCH4
Changes since v1:
- Add kconfig option BOOT_PAGE_ALIGNED to enable 4KB aligned booting
- Improved initial page table setup code to select best/biggest
possible mapping size based on load address alignment
- Added PATCH4 to remove redundant trampoline page table
- Added PATCH5 to fix memory reservation in setup_bootmem()
Anup Patel (4):
RISC-V: Add separate defconfig for 32bit systems
RISC-V: Fix memory reservation in setup_bootmem()
RISC-V: Remove redundant trampoline page table
RISC-V: Allow booting kernel from any 4KB aligned address
