From 8a7f0c52e8a07ac31784a2dd62c001d38843dfe6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Blumenstingl Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2017 23:33:48 +0200 Subject: ARM: dts: meson8: add reserved memory zones There seem to be two memory regions that need to be reserved, otherwise the system just hangs when running: $ stress --vm-bytes $(awk '/MemFree/{printf "%d\n", $2 * 0.9;}' < /proc/meminfo)k \ --vm-keep -m 1 The first memory region is really crucial and without it the system hangs. I could not find any references to this in Amlogic's GPL kernel sources. The second region is used by the "suspend firmware". The u-boot sources (/arch/arm/cpu/aml_meson/m8/firmwareld.c) state that the suspend firmware is located at "64M + 15M" which matches CONFIG_MESON_SUSPEND in the Amlogic GPL kernel sources. The "suspend firmware" is responsible for waking up the system from suspend state. This also fixes reading the full SD card as without this the system would simply hang (probably related to the first memory region, if some buffer is allocated there).
