Hi Henry, On 24/08/2022 08:31, Henry Wang wrote: This commit firstly adds a global variable `reserved_heap`. This newly introduced global variable is set at the device tree parsing time if the reserved heap ranges are defined in the device tree chosen node. For Arm32, In `setup_mm`, if the reserved heap is enabled, we use the reserved heap region for both domheap and xenheap allocation. For Arm64, In `setup_mm`, if the reserved heap is enabled and used, we make sure that only these reserved heap pages are added to the boot allocator. These reserved heap pages in the boot allocator are added to the heap allocator at `end_boot_allocator()`. If the reserved heap is disabled, we stick to current page allocation strategy at boot time. Also, take the chance to correct a "double not" print in Arm32 `setup_mm()`. Signed-off-by: Henry Wang <Henry.Wang@xxxxxxx> --- With reserved heap enabled, for Arm64, naming of global variables such as `xenheap_mfn_start` and `xenheap_mfn_end` seems to be ambiguous, wondering if we should rename these variables. --- Changes from RFC to v1: - Rebase on top of latest `setup_mm()` changes. - Added Arm32 logic in `setup_mm()`. --- xen/arch/arm/bootfdt.c | 2 + xen/arch/arm/include/asm/setup.h | 2 + xen/arch/arm/setup.c | 79 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------- 3 files changed, 67 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/xen/arch/arm/bootfdt.c b/xen/arch/arm/bootfdt.c index 33704ca487..ab73b6e212 100644 --- a/xen/arch/arm/bootfdt.c +++ b/xen/arch/arm/bootfdt.c @@ -325,6 +325,8 @@ static int __init process_chosen_node(const void *fdt, int node, true); if ( rc ) return rc; + + reserved_heap = true; }printk("Checking for initrd in /chosen\n");diff --git a/xen/arch/arm/include/asm/setup.h b/xen/arch/arm/include/asm/setup.h index e80f3d6201..00536a6d55 100644 --- a/xen/arch/arm/include/asm/setup.h +++ b/xen/arch/arm/include/asm/setup.h @@ -92,6 +92,8 @@ extern struct bootinfo bootinfo;extern domid_t max_init_domid; +extern bool reserved_heap;+ void copy_from_paddr(void *dst, paddr_t paddr, unsigned long len);size_t estimate_efi_size(unsigned int mem_nr_banks);diff --git a/xen/arch/arm/setup.c b/xen/arch/arm/setup.c index 500307edc0..fe76cf6325 100644 --- a/xen/arch/arm/setup.c +++ b/xen/arch/arm/setup.c @@ -73,6 +73,8 @@ integer_param("xenheap_megabytes", opt_xenheap_megabytes);domid_t __read_mostly max_init_domid; +bool __read_mostly reserved_heap;+ static __used void init_done(void) { /* Must be done past setting system_state. */ @@ -699,8 +701,10 @@ static void __init populate_boot_allocator(void) #ifdef CONFIG_ARM_32 static void __init setup_mm(void) { - paddr_t ram_start, ram_end, ram_size, e; - unsigned long ram_pages; + paddr_t ram_start, ram_end, ram_size, e, bank_start, bank_end, bank_size; + paddr_t reserved_heap_start = ~0, reserved_heap_end = 0, + reserved_heap_size = 0; + unsigned long ram_pages, reserved_heap_pages = 0; unsigned long heap_pages, xenheap_pages, domheap_pages; unsigned int i; const uint32_t ctr = READ_CP32(CTR); @@ -720,9 +724,9 @@ static void __init setup_mm(void)for ( i = 1; i < bootinfo.mem.nr_banks; i++ ){ - paddr_t bank_start = bootinfo.mem.bank[i].start; - paddr_t bank_size = bootinfo.mem.bank[i].size; - paddr_t bank_end = bank_start + bank_size; + bank_start = bootinfo.mem.bank[i].start; + bank_size = bootinfo.mem.bank[i].size; + bank_end = bank_start + bank_size;ram_size = ram_size + bank_size;ram_start = min(ram_start,bank_start); @@ -731,6 +735,25 @@ static void __init setup_mm(void)total_pages = ram_pages = ram_size >> PAGE_SHIFT; + if ( reserved_heap )+ { + for ( i = 0 ; i < bootinfo.reserved_mem.nr_banks; i++ ) + { + if ( bootinfo.reserved_mem.bank[i].xen_heap ) + { + bank_start = bootinfo.reserved_mem.bank[i].start; + bank_size = bootinfo.reserved_mem.bank[i].size; + bank_end = bank_start + bank_size; + + reserved_heap_size += bank_size; + reserved_heap_start = min(reserved_heap_start, bank_start); + reserved_heap_end = max(reserved_heap_end, bank_end); + } + } + + reserved_heap_pages = reserved_heap_size >> PAGE_SHIFT; + } + /* * If the user has not requested otherwise via the command line * then locate the xenheap using these constraints: @@ -743,7 +766,8 @@ static void __init setup_mm(void) * We try to allocate the largest xenheap possible within these * constraints. */ - heap_pages = ram_pages; + heap_pages = !reserved_heap ? ram_pages : reserved_heap_pages; + if ( opt_xenheap_megabytes ) xenheap_pages = opt_xenheap_megabytes << (20-PAGE_SHIFT); else @@ -755,17 +779,21 @@ static void __init setup_mm(void)do{ - e = consider_modules(ram_start, ram_end, + e = !reserved_heap ? + consider_modules(ram_start, ram_end, pfn_to_paddr(xenheap_pages), - 32<<20, 0); + 32<<20, 0) : + reserved_heap_end; Not entirely related to this series.

This loop is meant to map the xenheap. If I follow your documentation, it would mean that only the reserved region should be mapped. More confusingly, xenheap_* variables will cover the full RAM. Effectively, this is now more obvious that this is use for direct-mapping. So I think it would be better to rename the variable to directmap_* or similar. Ideally this should be in a separate patch.
