[U-Boot] [PATCH] ppc/85xx: Fix bug in setup_mp code

Its possible that we try and copy the boot page code out of flash into a DDR location that doesn't have a TLB cover it. For example, if we have 3G of DDR we typically only map the first 2G. In the cases of 4G+ this wasn't an issue since the reset page TLB mapping covered the last page of memory which we wanted to copy to.
We now change the physical address of the reset page TLB to map to the true physical location of the boot page code, copy and than set the TLB back to its 1:1 mapping of the reset page.

X-ES's mpc8572/8561 boards don't currently use 1 TLB to just map the 0xfffff000 region, we use same TLB that is used for flash (covering 0xf0000000-0xffffffff).
It looks like a fair number of other mpc85xx non-MP boards currently use the 0xfffff000 region for flash too. This patch wouldn't affect them, but I assume when those vendors produce a board with MP support, they'd like to keep the same memory map, in which case they'd run into the same issue as I'm having with not reserving the 0xfffffxxx region for BPTR use.
In any case, I was wondering if you'd be up for changing this patch to save/restore the TLB you're disabling instead of hardcoding the "restore". I could send a follow-up patch if you're OK with the concept too.
I feel like our use of the 0xfffff000 memory region is starting to make us the red headed stepchild of the mpc85xx MP family:)
Thanks, Peter

I'm fine w/the concept. I'm cleaning up some PCI code at this point so feel free to send me a patch to do this.

We now change the physical address of the reset page TLB to map to the
true physical location of the boot page code, copy and than set the TLB back to its 1:1 mapping of the reset page.
Why should a boot page TLB still exist? And if it does exist, it may be serving a good purpose and shouldn't be touched.
Why not just pick an unused virtual address and map it to bootpg?
This TLB grabbing is giving me problems on my board where I have the original 1M bootpage mapped to CPC sram and I want to keep active.

I imagine Kumar assumed the bootpage was only used for its "intended" purpose? Our boards have a large flash mapped on top of the original bootpage, which caused problems for me too.

You can actually do what you describe since commit 5ccd29c3679b3669b0bde5c501c1aa0f325a7acb. The CONFIG_BPTR_VIRT_ADDR feature is enabled for the XPedite5370 in commit 48618126f78f05042dae428811809b594f747eb9.
This TLB grabbing is giving me problems on my board where I have the original 1M bootpage mapped to CPC sram and I want to keep active.
I believe reproducing 48618126f78f05042dae428811809b594f747eb9 for your board should be a workaround.
