[U-Boot] [PATCH 3/4][v2] powerpc/85xx:Make debug exception vector accessible

Debugging of e500 and e500v1 processer requires debug exception vecter (IVPR + IVOR15) to have valid and fetchable OP code.
While executing in translated space (AS=1), whenever a debug exception is generated, the MSR[DS/IS] gets cleared i.e. AS=0 and the processor tries to fetch an instruction from the debug exception vector (IVPR + IVOR15); since now we are in AS=0, the application needs to ensure the proper TLB configuration to have (IVOR + IVOR15) accessible from AS=0 also.
Create a temporary TLB in AS0 to make sure debug exception verctor is accessible on debug exception.

Changes for v2: - Put Temporary TLB creation under #define
Tested on - SoC having E500 Family processor (P1010RDB, BSC9131RDB) - SoC having E500MC Family processor (P4080DS, P3041DS)

I don't see anywhere in this patchset where you set CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB on any actual board. It should be set for all e500v1/v2, not just so that debug works but so that this code remains tested.

Ok. I will re-spin all the patches without CONFIG_E500 condition check.
I don't see anywhere in this patchset where you set CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB on any actual board.
This CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB is defined in arch/powerpc/include/asm/config_mpc85xx.h. i defined for P1010 (in this patch). For rest of e500 v1, v2 processor family new patch-set will be sent once this base patch is accepted.
It should be set for all e500v1/v2, not just so that debug works but so that this code remains tested.
Yes. I agree with you. It will be automatically enabled when CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB is defined per SoC(e500 v1/v2). As of now only for P1010 it is enabled.

I am not sure. But same is done under label "create_init_ram_area" for TLB entry 15. what you suggest.
Which path will NAND SPL go through (not the payload, but the SPL itself)? That will be only a 4K window mapped, and guarded doesn't stop speculative instruction fetches, so we don't want to map more than is backed up by something.
NAND SPL go via !defined(CONFIG_SYS_RAMBOOT) path.
i think NAND_SPL does not require temporary TLB as NAND SPL even does not have any interrupt vector.
I will check this point

Access to MAS7 needs to be conditional on CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS (misnamed, should be something like CONFIG_SYS_PPC_HAS_MAS7).
i will put this code under #define CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS
For your kind information : in start.S, label label "create_ccsr_new_tlb", "create_ccsr_old_tlb" uses MAS7 without CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS #define. It should be fixed ??

Can you document the flow of exactly what TLB entries are present at various points of the boot flow, for all the various configurations (NOR boot, NAND SPL, RAMBOOT, IFC versus non-IFC, etc).
Sure. May be separate patch will be send.
Let's start with just an e-mail thoroughly describing your understanding of this. It will provide necessary context for review.
We can clean it up for permanent documentation once it's clear to everyone what's going on.
In the ramboot case is this really supposed to be I+G?
I am not sure. But same is done under label "create_init_ram_area" for TLB entry 15. what you suggest.
I suggest as part of the request to document all of this, you figure out what should actually be mapped in each configuration. The existing code might be wrong for some of them, but we shouldn't proceed ahead blindly and make an even bigger mess.
Which path will NAND SPL go through (not the payload, but the SPL itself)? That will be only a 4K window mapped, and guarded doesn't stop speculative instruction fetches, so we don't want to map more than is backed up by something.
NAND SPL go via !defined(CONFIG_SYS_RAMBOOT) path.
i think NAND_SPL does not require temporary TLB as NAND SPL even does not have any interrupt vector.
So there's no plan to support using breakpoints or single step during the SPL? That's fine with me, but should be documented, and we should make sure this code does not run in that case.
- lis r10,0xffc00000@h
- ori r10,r10,0xffc00000@l
Don't waste instructions -- this could be in an SPL. That ori is a no-op.
Please refer above response. May be this piece of code is not required for NAND SPL
Still, I'd like to know why you're writing 0xffc00000 to MAS7. Only the low 4 bits of MAS7 are valid on current e500.
- mtspr MAS0,r6
- mtspr MAS1,r7
- mtspr MAS2,r8
- mtspr MAS3,r9
- mtspr MAS7,r10
Why are you writing 0xffc00000 into MAS7?
Access to MAS7 needs to be conditional on CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS (misnamed, should be something like CONFIG_SYS_PPC_HAS_MAS7).
i will put this code under #define CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS
For your kind information : in start.S, label label "create_ccsr_new_tlb", "create_ccsr_old_tlb" uses MAS7 without CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS #define. It should be fixed ??
Yes, it should be fixed. That was a fairly recent change and perhaps e500v1 has not been tested since then -- Timur, could you look at this?

That's a different issue, I just mean having one central place where each hardcoded TLB entry gets a symbolic name, as well as a #define for where programmatic TLB entry allocation can begin.
The decision to actually make use of the TLB entry would be a different symbol, if you don't want it to be unconditional (relative to the surrounding code).

On e500v1 parts, CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH will always be 0, so it will only write 0 to MAS7. Is that still considered a bad thing? The tlbwe will ignore MAS7.

Either it's needed, or we should get rid of CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS entirely. Either way, we should test the results on e500v1 hardware.

That macro conditionally enables support for MAS7:
#if defined(CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS) ori r0,r0,HID0_ENMAS7@l /* Enable MAS7 */ #endif
So I don't think we can get rid of it, otherwise I suspect an e500v1 operating system will not work on an e500v2 part.

Fine, keep it for that (though I'd argue that if that were the concern, we should have been clearing it before we enter the OS, and the Os can set it if it wants). But what about in write_tlb, or tlb.c?
There's obviously an existing attempt to avoid touching MAS7 if CONFIG_ENABLE_36BIT_PHYS is not set. Either that's unnecessary and we should remove it, or we should continue adhering to it.

I don't doubt that we do use the L1 for stack unconditionally -- just that in the ramboot case we could probably get away without it if it were a problem. I don't think it's a problem, though, because it doesn't conflict with creating cacheable mappings.
