<title>m68k/atari - stram: alloc ST-RAM pool even if kernel not in ST-RAM</title>

With the kernel loaded to FastRAM (TT-RAM), none of the ST-RAM
address range is mapped by init_mem, and ST-RAM is not accessible
through the normal allocation pathways as a result.

Implement ST-RAM pool allocation to be based on physical addresses
always (it already was when the kernel was loaded in ST-RAM).
Return kernel virtual addresses as per normal.

The current test for the kernel residing in ST-RAM always returns
true. Use the bootinfo memory chunk order instead - with the kernel
in FastRAM, ST-RAM (phys. 0x0) is not the first chunk.

In case the kernel is running from FastRAM, delay mapping of ST-RAM
pool until after mem_init.

Provide helper functions for those users of ST-RAM that need
to be aware of the backing physical addresses.

Kudos to Geert for his hints on getting this started.

<title>m68k/atari: Reserve some ST-RAM early on for device buffer use</title>

<id>217bbd81885587b462311fab1b04172926c59f1e</id>
<content type='text'>
Based on an original patch from Michael Schmitz:

Because mem_init() is now called before device init, devices that rely on
ST-RAM may find all ST-RAM already allocated to other users by the time
device init happens. In particular, a large initrd RAM disk may use up
enough of ST-RAM to cause atari_stram_alloc() to resort to
__get_dma_pages() allocation.

In the current state of Atari memory management, all of RAM is marked
DMA capable, so __get_dma_pages() may well return RAM that is not in actual
fact DMA capable. Using this for frame buffer or SCSI DMA buffer causes
subtle failure.

The ST-RAM allocator has been changed to allocate memory from a pool of
reserved ST-RAM of configurable size, set aside on ST-RAM init (i.e.
before mem_init()). As long as this pool is not exhausted, allocation of
real ST-RAM can be guaranteed.

Other changes:
  - Replace the custom allocator in the ST-RAM pool by the existing allocator
    in the resource subsystem,
  - Remove mem_init_done and its hook, as memory init is now done before
    device init,
  - Remove /proc/stram, as ST-RAM usage now shows up under /proc/iomem, e.g.

	005f2000-006f1fff : ST-RAM Pool
	  005f2000-0063dfff : atafb
	  0063e000-00641fff : ataflop
	  00642000-00642fff : SCSI

None of these files use any of the functionality promised by
asm/semaphore.h.  It's possible that they rely on it dragging in some
unrelated header file, but I can't build all these files, so we'll have
fix any build failures as they come up.

<title>Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()</title>

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.

This patch:

Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.

Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

Please, please now delete the Atari CONFIG_STRAM_SWAP code.  It may be
excellent and ingenious code, but its reference to swap_vfsmnt betrays that it
hasn't been built since 2.5.1 (four years old come December), it's delving
deep into matters which are the preserve of core mm code, its only purpose is
to give the more conscientious mm guys an anxiety attack from time to time;
yet we keep on breaking it more and more.

If you want to use RAM for swap, then if the MTD driver does not already
provide just what you need, I'm sure David could be persuaded to add the
extra.  But you'd also like to be able to allocate extents of that swap for
other use: we can give you a core interface for that if you need.  But unbuilt
for four years suggests to me that there's no need at all.

I cannot swear the patch below won't break your build, but believe so.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
