This is a follow-up of "b6fe410 xen/arm: Add handling of extended regions for Dom0" Add various in-code comments, update Xen hypervisor device tree bindings text, change the log level for some prints and clarify format specifier, reuse dt_for_each_range() to avoid open-coding in find_memory_holes().

* Xen hypervisor device tree bindings
|
|
|
|
Xen ARM virtual platforms shall have a top-level "hypervisor" node with
|
|
the following properties:
|
|
|
|
- compatible:
|
|
compatible = "xen,xen-<version>", "xen,xen";
|
|
where <version> is the version of the Xen ABI of the platform.
|
|
|
|
- reg: specifies the base physical address and size of the regions in memory
|
|
where the special resources should be mapped to, using an HYPERVISOR_memory_op
|
|
hypercall.
|
|
Region 0 is reserved for mapping grant table, it must be always present.
|
|
The memory region is large enough to map the whole grant table (it is larger
|
|
or equal to gnttab_max_grant_frames()).
|
|
Regions 1...N are extended regions (unused address space) for mapping foreign
|
|
GFNs and grants, they might be absent if there is nothing to expose.
|
|
This property is unnecessary when booting Dom0 using ACPI.
|
|
|
|
- interrupts: the interrupt used by Xen to inject event notifications.
|
|
A GIC node is also required.
|
|
This property is unnecessary when booting Dom0 using ACPI.
|
|
|
|
To support UEFI on Xen ARM virtual platforms, Xen populates the FDT "uefi" node
|
|
under /hypervisor with following parameters:
|
|
|
|
________________________________________________________________________________
|
|
Name | Size | Description
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
xen,uefi-system-table | 64-bit | Guest physical address of the UEFI System
|
|
| | Table.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-start | 64-bit | Guest physical address of the UEFI memory
|
|
| | map.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-size | 32-bit | Size in bytes of the UEFI memory map
|
|
| | pointed to in previous entry.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-desc-size | 32-bit | Size in bytes of each entry in the UEFI
|
|
| | memory map.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-desc-ver | 32-bit | Version of the mmap descriptor format.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Example (assuming #address-cells = <2> and #size-cells = <2>):
|
|
|
|
hypervisor {
|
|
compatible = "xen,xen-4.3", "xen,xen";
|
|
reg = <0 0xb0000000 0 0x20000>;
|
|
interrupts = <1 15 0xf08>;
|
|
uefi {
|
|
xen,uefi-system-table = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-start = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-desc-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
|
|
xen,uefi-mmap-desc-ver = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
The format and meaning of the "xen,uefi-*" parameters are similar to those in
|
|
Documentation/arm/uefi.txt in Linux, which are provided by the regular Linux
|
|
UEFI stub. However they differ because they are provided by the Xen hypervisor,
|
|
together with a set of UEFI runtime services implemented via hypercalls, see
|
|
xen/include/public/platform.h.
