The Armv8-R architecture profile was designed to support use cases
that have a high sensitivity to deterministic execution. (e.g.
Fuel Injection, Brake control, Drive trains, Motor control etc)
Arm announced Armv8-R in 2013, it is the latest generation Arm
architecture targeted at the Real-time profile. It introduces
virtualization at the highest security level while retaining the
Protected Memory System Architecture (PMSA) based on a Memory
Protection Unit (MPU). In 2020, Arm announced Cortex-R82,
which is the first Arm 64-bit Cortex-R processor based on Armv8-R64.
The latest Armv8-R64 document can be found [1]. And the features of
Armv8-R64 architecture:
- An exception model that is compatible with the Armv8-A model
- Virtualization with support for guest operating systems
- PMSA virtualization using MPUs In EL2.
- Adds support for the 64-bit A64 instruction set.
- Supports up to 48-bit physical addressing.
- Supports three Exception Levels (ELs)
- Secure EL2 - The Highest Privilege
- Secure EL1 - RichOS (MMU) or RTOS (MPU)
- Secure EL0 - Application Workloads
- Supports only a single Security state - Secure.
- MPU in EL1 & EL2 is configurable, MMU in EL1 is configurable.
These patch series are implementing the Armv8-R64 MPU support
for Xen, which are based on the discussion of
"Proposal for Porting Xen to Armv8-R64 - DraftC" [2].
We will implement the Armv8-R64 and MPU support in three stages:
1. Boot Xen itself to idle thread, do not create any guests on it.
2. Support to boot MPU and MMU domains on Armv8-R64 Xen.
3. SMP and other advanced features of Xen support on Armv8-R64.
As we have not implemented guest support in part#1 series of MPU
support, Xen can not create any guest in boot time. So in this
patch serie, we provide an extra DNM-commit in the last for users
to test Xen boot to idle on MPU system.
We will split these patches to several parts, this series is the
part#1, v1 is in [3], the full PoC can be found in [4]. More software for
Armv8-R64 can be found in [5];
