[U-Boot] [PATCH] sandbox: Add improved RAM simulation

Using mmap we can simulate RAM at a specific address. This also eliminated the use of system malloc function.

But it works in most cases :-) The point of adding it was that I really like to have memory aligned on a 256MB boundary or so like it is in most SOCs. But thats a personal preference. And if it doesn't work you can still get the address of physical memory from bdinfo.

Well, you are right. But with the posted patch you don't need any remap function and md/mm/mtest/mw works out of the box.

This is interesting. What is the test purpose of specifying a particular virtual address for your memory?
If this is useful then we should make the mmap function fail if it cannot honour the address, since otherwise presumably some tests will fail.

I don't know the memory layout strategies for all the Linux/Unix variant out there. But typically text/bss/data is in the lower address range (some megs above 0) and in the upper range (right under kernel space) there is space used for stack and shared objects. Even with ASLR the address I used in the patch should be mappable.

Emulating the behavior of a u-boot on real hardware as close as possible. We have some chunk of memory at a given location. Thats it. With a minimum of additional work we can also simulate additional banks of RAM using multiple mmaps.
If this is useful then we should make the mmap function fail if it cannot honour the address, since otherwise presumably some tests will fail.
Maybe. But on the other hand tests can always extract the actual address of RAM from gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start. If test use these address we can abandon the use of of fixed address. But I still thinks its nice to have an aligned address of RAM start as this is what we have on (all?) real hardware.

relying on any address layout behavior is doomed to fail. and in this case, it's unnecessary. so let's not bother.

adding a CONFIG knob to control the virtual address of the memory is fine

i'd rather see bi_dram die than extend it. if you want to utilize the virtual memory, let's use the already existing map helper. -mike

Accepted but not convinced :-) As the address passed to mmap is only a hint it will not fail. But I will remove the hint in V2 of the patch.

I just implemented it as suggested. One thing I observed now is that an unhinted mmap now returns an address > 4GB (on my x86_64 machine) which is directly mapped under the shared object address range.

After applying Simons md patch I can now successfully md the 128MBytes of simulated RAM. If I use an "virtual" address close to the end of this area:

So, as you can see, dumping to far is not faulting. It just dumps (in this case) the first bytes of my local libc.

yes, and i think this is acceptable behavior. take any SoC out there, and if you do `md` on addresses that aren't actually backed by memory, you get chip- specific behavior. it could be an exception, a hardware error signal, random garbage, or something else. -mike

except for when that base address happens to already be used, then any assumptions about memory addresses are now invalid.
the internal memory layout should be disconnected from the user-api facing layout. so while internally sandbox does an anon mmap of some chunk of memory, where that is based should not matter. the memory as seen by commands run from the console should always be the same. which is what Simon's patch gets us.
as for sandbox working the same as random SoCs, that's going to be highly SoC and architecture specific. i'd keep it simple and have sandbox expose its chunk of memory starting at address 0 and work its way up. -mike

I would prefer that you define something like os_malloc() instead, and your implementation use mmap(). After all your flags cannot sensibly be used elsewhere in U-Boot, and we might as well define only the feature that we actually want to use. I don't see a general use for mmap().
