powerpc: Define virtual-physical translations for RELOCATABLE
We find the runtime address of _stext and relocate ourselves based
on the following calculation.
virtual_base = ALIGN(KERNELBASE,KERNEL_TLB_PIN_SIZE) +
MODULO(_stext.run,KERNEL_TLB_PIN_SIZE)
relocate() is called with the Effective Virtual Base Address (as
shown below)

On BookE, we need __va() & __pa() early in the boot process to access
the device tree.
Currently this has been defined as :
#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) -
PHYSICAL_START + KERNELBASE)
where:
PHYSICAL_START is kernstart_addr - a variable updated at runtime.
KERNELBASE is the compile time Virtual base address of kernel.
This won't work for us, as kernstart_addr is dynamic and will yield different
results for __va()/__pa() for same mapping.
e.g.,
Let the kernel be loaded at 64MB and KERNELBASE be 0xc0000000 (same as
PAGE_OFFSET).
In this case, we would be mapping 0 to 0xc0000000, and kernstart_addr = 64M
Now __va(1MB) = (0x100000) - (0x4000000) + 0xc0000000
= 0xbc100000 , which is wrong.
it should be : 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000
On platforms which support AMP, like PPC_47x (based on 44x), the kernel
could be loaded at highmem. Hence we cannot always depend on the compile
time constants for mapping.
Here are the possible solutions:
1) Update kernstart_addr(PHSYICAL_START) to match the Physical address of
compile time KERNELBASE value, instead of the actual Physical_Address(_stext).
The disadvantage is that we may break other users of PHYSICAL_START. They
could be replaced with __pa(_stext).
2) Redefine __va() & __pa() with relocation offset
#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) - PHYSICAL_START + (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET)))
#define __pa(x) ((unsigned long)(x) + PHYSICAL_START - (KERNELBASE + RELOC_OFFSET))
#endif
where, RELOC_OFFSET could be
a) A variable, say relocation_offset (like kernstart_addr), updated
at boot time. This impacts performance, as we have to load an additional
variable from memory.
OR
b) #define RELOC_OFFSET ((PHYSICAL_START & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK) - \
(KERNELBASE & PPC_PIN_SIZE_OFFSET_MASK))
This introduces more calculations for doing the translation.
3) Redefine __va() & __pa() with a new variable
i.e,
#define __va(x) ((void *)(unsigned long)((phys_addr_t)(x) + VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET))
where VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET :
#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET virt_phys_offset
#else
#define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET (KERNELBASE - PHYSICAL_START)
#endif /* CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_PPC32 */
where virt_phy_offset is updated at runtime to :
Effective KERNELBASE - kernstart_addr.
Taking our example, above:
virt_phys_offset = effective_kernelstart_vaddr - kernstart_addr
= 0xc0400000 - 0x400000
= 0xc0000000
and
__va(0x100000) = 0xc0000000 + 0x100000 = 0xc0100000
which is what we want.
I have implemented (3) in the following patch which has same cost of
operation as the existing one.
I have tested the patches on 440x platforms only. However this should
work fine for PPC_47x also, as we only depend on the runtime address
and the current TLB XLAT entry for the startup code, which is available
in r25. I don't have access to a 47x board yet. So, it would be great if
somebody could test this on 47x.
