Dear Experts,
I am looking for suggestion/guidance, how to use above 4G memory on in u-boot for ARM 64-bit based architecture.
On our system, we have low memory from 0x8000_0000 to 0xFFFF_FFFF and above 4G 0x8_8000_0000 to 0x8_FFFF_FFFF
As per my understanding, we have following pointers in u-boot ram_base, ram_top , ram_size
If I keep, above this variables within low memory ie. ram_base = 0x8000_0000, ram_top = 0x1_0000_0000, ram_size = 0x1_0000_0000 boot is successful, but when I am moving to high memory like
ram_base = 0x8000_0000, ram_top = 0x9_0000_0000, ram_size = 0x2_0000_0000 boot is failing while reallocation for obvious reasons,
Question, I have for which I am looking for advise . If memory is divided in into two zones, then how we can fit memory using above three variables. Or is there some other config, which I am missing.
Many Thanks Udit
P.S. :I noticed few other ARM64 arch restrict gd->ram_top to 0x1_0000_0000
