For non-relocatable kernels we need to be able to link the kernel at
approximately PAGE_OFFSET, thus requiring medany (as medlow requires
the
code to be linked within 2GiB of 0). The inverse doesn't apply,
though:
since medany code can be linked anywhere it's fine to link it close to
0, so we can support the smaller memory config.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 9f36b96bc70f9707 ("RISC-V:
MAXPHYSMEM_2GB doesn't depend on CMODEL_MEDLOW").
I found this when going through the savedefconfig diffs for the K210
defconfigs. I'm not entirely sure they're doing the right thing here
(they should probably be setting CMODEL_LOW to take advantage of the
better code generation), but I don't have any way to test those
platforms so I don't want to change too much.
I can confirm MAXPHYSMEM_2GB works on K210 with CMODEL_MEDANY.
As the Icicle has 1760 MiB of RAM, I gave it a try with MAXPHYSMEM_2GB
(and CMODEL_MEDANY), too. Unfortunately it crashes very early
(needs earlycon to see):
Given you said 1760 MiB I assume you're not running the device tree
currently in the kernel?
But the defconfig is /arch/riscv/configs/defconfig?
I tested it w/ my newer version of the dts, using both 1760 & 736 MiB
(ddrc_cache_lo only) w/ MAXPHYSMEM_2GB.
Enabling MAXPHYSMEM_2GB with either CMODEL_MEDANY or CMODEL_MEDLOW
lead to the same boot failure as you got.
Any chance you can give a try to [1] so that I can extract it from my
sv48 patchset and propose it to fixes if it works?
Applied, tested with 1760 & 736 MiB - booted fine. :)
Great, I'll extract it, rephrase it (since it is not a suspicion
anymore), add Geert Reported-by and your Tested-by.
Thanks!
Alex

So the FDT is at 0xffffffff87e00000, i.e. at 0x7e00000 from the start
of virtual memory (CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET=0xffffffff80000000), and thus
within the 2 GiB range.
