From 1fceaddb12b59e5711b26f26859e324e7a8e212a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laszlo Ersek Date: Sat, 8 Jul 2017 01:28:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] OvmfPkg/PlatformPei: support >=1TB high RAM, and discontiguous high RAM In OVMF we currently get the upper (>=4GB) memory size with the GetSystemMemorySizeAbove4gb() function. The GetSystemMemorySizeAbove4gb() function is used in two places: (1) It is the starting point of the calculations in GetFirstNonAddress(). GetFirstNonAddress() in turn - determines the placement of the 64-bit PCI MMIO aperture, - provides input for the GCD memory space map's sizing (see AddressWidthInitialization(), and the CPU HOB in MiscInitialization()), - influences the permanent PEI RAM cap (the DXE core's page tables, built in permanent PEI RAM, grow as the RAM to map grows). (2) In QemuInitializeRam(), GetSystemMemorySizeAbove4gb() determines the single memory descriptor HOB that we produce for the upper memory. Respectively, there are two problems with GetSystemMemorySizeAbove4gb(): (1) It reads a 24-bit count of 64KB RAM chunks from the CMOS, and therefore cannot return a larger value than one terabyte. (2) It cannot express discontiguous high RAM. Starting with version 1.7.0, QEMU has provided the fw_cfg file called "etc/e820". Refer to the following QEMU commits: - 0624c7f916b4 ("e820: pass high memory too.", 2013-10-10), - 7d67110f2d9a ("pc: add etc/e820 fw_cfg file", 2013-10-18) - 7db16f2480db ("pc: register e820 entries for ram", 2013-10-10) Ever since these commits in v1.7.0 -- with the last QEMU release being v2.9.0, and v2.10.0 under development --, the only two RAM entries added to this E820 map correspond to the below-4GB RAM range, and the above-4GB RAM range. And, the above-4GB range exactly matches the CMOS registers in question; see the use of "pcms->above_4g_mem_size": pc_q35_init() | pc_init1() pc_memory_init() e820_add_entry(0x100000000ULL, pcms->above_4g_mem_size, E820_RAM); pc_cmos_init() val = pcms->above_4g_mem_size / 65536; rtc_set_memory(s, 0x5b, val); rtc_set_memory(s, 0x5c, val >> 8); rtc_set_memory(s, 0x5d, val >> 16); Therefore, remedy the above OVMF limitations as follows: (1) Start off GetFirstNonAddress() by scanning the E820 map for the highest exclusive >=4GB RAM address. Fall back to the CMOS if the E820 map is unavailable. Base all further calculations (such as 64-bit PCI MMIO aperture placement, GCD sizing etc) on this value. At the moment, the only difference this change makes is that we can have more than 1TB above 4GB -- given that the sole "high RAM" entry in the E820 map matches the CMOS exactly, modulo the most significant bits (see above). However, Igor plans to add discontiguous (cold-plugged) high RAM to the fw_cfg E820 RAM map later on, and then this scanning will adapt automatically. (2) In QemuInitializeRam(), describe the high RAM regions from the E820 map one by one with memory HOBs. Fall back to the CMOS only if the E820 map is missing. Again, right now this change only makes a difference if there is at least 1TB high RAM. Later on it will adapt to discontiguous high RAM (regardless of its size) automatically. -*- Implementation details: introduce the ScanOrAdd64BitE820Ram() function, which reads the E820 entries from fw_cfg, and finds the highest exclusive >=4GB RAM address, or produces memory resource descriptor HOBs for RAM entries that start at or above 4GB. The RAM map is not read in a single go, because its size can vary, and in PlatformPei we should stay away from dynamic memory allocation, for the following reasons: - "Pool" allocations are limited to ~64KB, are served from HOBs, and cannot be released ever. - "Page" allocations are seriously limited before PlatformPei installs the permanent PEI RAM. Furthermore, page allocations can only be released in DXE, with dedicated code (so the address would have to be passed on with a HOB or PCD). - Raw memory allocation HOBs would require the same freeing in DXE. Therefore we process each E820 entry as soon as it is read from fw_cfg. -*- Considering the impact of high RAM on the DXE core: A few years ago, installing high RAM as *tested* would cause the DXE core to inhabit such ranges rather than carving out its home from the permanent PEI RAM. Fortunately, this was fixed in the following edk2 commit: 3a05b13106d1, "MdeModulePkg DxeCore: Take the range in resource HOB for PHIT as higher priority", 2015-09-18 which I regression-tested at the time: http://mid.mail-archive.com/55FC27B0.4070807@redhat.com Later on, OVMF was changed to install its high RAM as tested (effectively "arming" the earlier DXE core change for OVMF), in the following edk2 commit: 035ce3b37c90, "OvmfPkg/PlatformPei: Add memory above 4GB as tested", 2016-04-21 which I also regression-tested at the time: http://mid.mail-archive.com/571E8B90.1020102@redhat.com Therefore adding more "tested memory" HOBs is safe.
