From: yihuaijie <yihuaijie@xxxxxxxxxx> memcpy() to memory remaped by ioremap() at an address not aligned to 8-bytes will cause oops on arm64 platform, fixing this by using ioremap_wc(). e.g. writing through jffs2 on a phram device cause following error: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffff800f93700c pgd = ffffffc00385c000 [ffffff800f93700c] *pgd=0000000000000000, *pud=0000000000000000 Internal error: Oops: 96000061 [#1] PREEMPT SMP task: ffffffc003549b10 task.stack: ffffffc0b8bc8000 PC is at __memcpy+0xc0/0x180 LR is at phram_write+0x5c/0x78 [phram] pc : [<ffffff8008484740>] lr : [<ffffff8000d731a4>] pstate: 80000005 sp : ffffffc0b8bcb8c0 x29: ffffffc0b8bcb8c0 x28: 000000000093700c x27: 0000000000000001 x26: 0000000000000000 x25: 0000000000000001 x24: 0000000000000000 x23: ffffffc5b6db8480 x22: ffffffc0b8bcb990 x21: ffffff800f000000 x20: 000000000093700c x19: 0000000000000044 x18: 000000000000000a x17: 0000000000000c00 x16: 0000000000000400 x15: 000000000001e125 x14: 34347830203a6e65 x13: 6c202c6330303733 x12: 397830203a726464 x11: 61202c3030303030 x10: 3066303038666666 x9 : 6666667830203a56 x8 : 0000000298f7fb1d x7 : 00000044e0021985 x6 : ffffff800f93700c x5 : 0000000000000000 x4 : 0000000000000000 x3 : ffffff8008cbe018 x2 : ffffffffffffffc4 x1 : ffffffc5b6db8490 x0 : ffffff800f93700c Signed-off-by: Huaijie Yi <yihuaijie@xxxxxxxxxx> --- v1->v2: fix this only on ARM64 arch. drivers/mtd/devices/phram.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/mtd/devices/phram.c b/drivers/mtd/devices/phram.c index c467286..89ca8bb 100644 --- a/drivers/mtd/devices/phram.c +++ b/drivers/mtd/devices/phram.c @@ -98,7 +98,11 @@ static int register_device(char *name, phys_addr_t start, size_t len) goto out0; ret = -EIO; +#ifdef CONFIG_ARM64 + new->mtd.priv = ioremap_wc(start, len); +#else new->mtd.priv = ioremap(start, len); +#endif if (!new->mtd.priv) { pr_err("ioremap failed\n"); goto out1; -- 1.8.5.6 ______________________________________________________ Linux MTD discussion mailing list http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mtd/
