Hi Jiaxun,

It seems that there is no absolutely better way to handle this case.

1. use conditional compilation in drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c:

#if defined(CONFIG_MACH_LOONGSON64)

p = dmi_early_remap(0xFFFE000, 0x10000);

#else

p = dmi_early_remap(0xF0000, 0x10000);

#endif


This will influence the common code.

2. use callback function in arch/mips/include/asm/dmi.h:

struct plat_dmi_ops {

void (*early_memremap)(void);

void (*memremap)(void);

};

extern struct plat_dmi_ops *dmi_ops;

void __init *mips_early_memremap(resource_size_t phys_addr, unsigned long size)

{

dmi_ops->early_memremap();

}

void *mips_memremap(resource_size_t offset, size_t size, unsigned long flags)

{

dmi_ops->memremap();

}


we can implement the callback function in various of MIPS platforms,
like this:

struct plat_dmi_ops loongson3_dmi_ops = {

.early_memremap = loongson3_early_memremap,

.memremap = loongson3_memremap,

};

register_dmi_ops(&loongson3_dmi_ops);

#ifdef CONFIG_DMI

void __init *loongson3_early_memremap(resource_size_t phys_addr, unsigned long size)

{

if (phys_addr == 0xF0000)

phys_addr = 0xfffe000;

return (void *)TO_CAC(phys_addr);

}

void *loongson3_memremap(resource_size_t offset, size_t size, unsigned long flags)

{

return (void *)TO_CAC(phys_addr);

}

#else

void __init __iomem *loongson3_early_memremap(u64 phys_addr, unsigned long size)

{

return NULL;

}

void __init __iomem *loongson3_memremap(u64 phys_addr, unsigned long size)

{

return NULL;

}

#endif


This will not influence the common code.

What do you think?


Hi Jean,

Could you give some suggestions?

> Sorry, I meant only default to y when MACH_LOONGSON64 is set or even depends on MACH_LOONGSON64. As Loongson is the only known MIPS platform that supports DMI. Default y unconditionally may lead to regression on other MIPS platforms.

OK, I prefer to select DMI when set MACH_LOONGSON64 instead of
DMI depends on MACH_LOONGSON64, I will modify the Kconfig file.

Thanks,
