[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [PATCH V2] xen/arm: arm64: Update the Image header
This patch is mainly modified from Linux kernel:
[1] commit a2c1d73b94ed: arm64: Update the Image header
[2] commit 6ad1fe5d9077: arm64: avoid R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations for Image
header fields
From [1]:
"
This patch adds an effective image size to the kernel header which
describes the amount of memory from the start of the kernel Image binary
which the kernel expects to use before detecting memory and handling any
memory reservations. This can be used by bootloaders to choose suitable
locations to load the kernel and/or other binaries such that the kernel
will not clobber any memory unexpectedly. As before, memory reservations
are required to prevent the kernel from clobbering these locations
later.
Both the image load offset and the effective image size are forced to be
little-endian regardless of the native endianness of the kernel to
enable bootloaders to load a kernel of arbitrary endianness. Bootloaders
which wish to make use of the load offset can inspect the effective
image size field for a non-zero value to determine if the offset is of a
known endianness. To enable software to determine the endinanness of the
kernel as may be required for certain use-cases, a new flags field (also
little-endian) is added to the kernel header to export this information.
"
In this patch, XEN_VIRT_START is used as the text offset. Then, bootloader,
such as U-Boot, will load the xen image to "dram_base + text_offset".
Not choose 0 as the text offset, because we may have spin table at dram_base.
Loading xen to dram_base will override the spin table.
Introduce image.h and macros.h in this patch, just as Linux kernel.
