[PATCH 2/9] arm64: efi: Add fake memory support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ma Wupeng <mawupeng1@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fake memory map is used for faking memory's attribute values.
Commit 0f96a99dab36 ("efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option") introduce the
efi_fake_mem function. Now it can support arm64 with this patch.
For example you can mark 0-6G memory as EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE by adding
efi_fake_mem=6G@0:0x10000 in the bootarg. You find more info about
fake memmap in kernel-parameters.txt.

Variable memstart_addr is only confirmed after arm64_memblock_init(). So
efi_fake_memmap() is needed to add after arm64_memblock_init().

Otherwise:

efi_memmap_alloc
   memblock_phys_alloc
     kmemleak_alloc_phys
        kmemleak_alloc(__va(phys), size, min_count, gfp);

this __va() will convert phys to a fault va and lead to a kmemleak error.
