From 5a6aa7d59133ab991f718a5bbd83cd2607782fec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sam Protsenko Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2024 20:17:02 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] boot: fdt: Handle already reserved memory in boot_fdt_reserve_region() The boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions() function can be called twice, e.g. first time during the board init (as a part of LMB init), and then when booting the OS with 'booti' command: lmb_add_region_flags lmb_reserve_flags boot_fdt_reserve_region boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions ^ | +-----------------------+ | (1) | (2) lmb_reserve_common image_setup_linux lmb_init ... initr_lmb do_booti board_init_r 'booti' That consequently leads to the attempt of reserving the same memory areas (described in the 'reserved-memory' dts node) in LMB. The lmb_add_region_flags() returns -EEXIST error code in such cases, but boot_fdt_reserve_region() handles all negative error codes as a failure to reserve fdt memory region, printing corresponding error messages, which are essentially harmless, but misleading. For example, this is the output of 'booti' command on E850-96 board: => booti $loadaddr - $fdtaddr ... ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed (addr=bab00000 size=5500000 flags=2) ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed (addr=f0000000 size=200000 flags=4) ... Starting kernel ... The mentioned false positive error messages are observed starting with commit 1d9aa4a283da ("lmb: Fix the allocation of overlapping memory areas with !LMB_NONE"), which removes the check for the already added memory regions in lmb_add_region_flags(), making it return -1 for !LMB_NONE cases. Another commit 827dee587b75 ("fdt: lmb: add reserved regions as no-overwrite") changes flags used for reserving memory in boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions() from LMB_NONE to LMB_NOOVERWRITE. So together with the patch mentioned earlier, it makes lmb_add_region_flags() return -1 when called from boot_fdt_reserve_region(). Since then, the different patch was implemented, returning -EEXIST error code in described cases, which is: lmb: Return -EEXIST in lmb_add_region_flags() if region already added Handle -EEXIST error code as a normal (successful) case in lmb_reserve_flags() and don't print any messages.
