This patch add support to boot kernel from places other than KERNELBASE.
Since CONFIG_RELOCATABLE has already supported, what we need to do is
map or copy kernel to a proper place and relocate. Freescale Book-E
parts expect lowmem to be mapped by fixed TLB entries(TLB1). The TLB1
entries are not suitable to map the kernel directly in a randomized
region, so we chose to copy the kernel to a proper place and restart to
relocate.

The offset of the kernel was not randomized yet(a fixed 64M is set). We
will randomize it in the next patch.

Why is N the safe default (other than concerns about code maturity,
though arm64 and mips don't seem to have updated this recommendation
after several years)? On x86 this defaults to Y.


Actually I would like to set this default Y. I was just wondering if
people like this feature or not at the beginning so I had to be more
careful.

It looks like that was the last user of MAS2_VAL so let's remove it.


OK.

Shouldn't this go under arch/powerpc/mm/nohash?

Why KERNELBASE and not kernstart_addr?


Did you mean kernstart_virt_addr? It should be kernstart_virt_addr.

+ tlb_virt = round_down(kernstart_virt_addr, SZ_64M);
+ tlb_phys = round_down(kernstart_addr, SZ_64M);

If kernstart_addr wasn't 64M-aligned before adding offset, then "offset
= SZ_64M" is not necessarily going to detect when you've crossed a
mapping boundary.

After copying, call flush_icache_range() on the destination.

Are you assuming that available memory starts at physical address zero?
This isn't true of some partitioning scenarios, or in a kdump crash
kernel.


I'm not assuming that but I haven't tested that case for now. I will reconsider and test these scenarios and fix all bugs.
