Hi Julien,
I need some clarification.

Changes from -
v1 - 1. Extracted from "[XEN v1 8/9] xen/arm: Other adaptations
required to support 32bit paddr".
v2 - 1. Introduced Kconfig choice. ARM_64 can select PHYS_ADDR_64
only whereas
ARM_32 can select PHYS_ADDR_32 or PHYS_ADDR_64.
2. For CONFIG_ARM_PA_32, paddr_t is defined as 'unsigned long'.
(Jan,Julien please let me know if I understood your suggestion about
Kconfig correctly).

So you likely don't want to allow the user to select them directly
(IOW remove the help section). However, I don't see any code using it.
Did you actually intended to use PHYS_ADDR_{32, 64} in the code?

I think this is a bit odd that this choice is part of CONFIG_ARM. It
would be better it is separate. You can do that by removing one

As I wrote in v2, I think this is a bit odd to ask the user what would
be the width of paddr_t. It is also not scalable if we decide in the
future to define different PADDR_BITS (i.e. 48, 40, 36, 32).
So it would be better to allow the user to define PADDR_BITS that can
then be translated by Xen to which ever paddr_t is suitable.
Something like:
choice
prompt: "Physical address space size" if ARM_32
default ARM_PA_48 if ARM_64
default AMR_PA_40 if ARM_32
help
...
config ARM_PA_BITS_32

endchoice
config PADDR_BITS
int
default 32 if ARM_PA_BITS_32
default 40 if ARM_PA_BITS_40
default 48 if ARM_PA_BITS_48
With this approach, there would be no structural change in the Kconfig
if we wanted to support 32/40-bit on Arm64.

Cheers,
I have followed your approach with some modifications. Let me know if it

Subject: [PATCH] xen/arm: Introduce choice to enable 64/32 bit physical
addressing
Some Arm based hardware platforms which does not support LPAE
(eg Cortex-R52), uses 32 bit physical addresses.
Also, users may choose to use 32 bits to represent physical addresses
for optimization.
To support the above use cases, we have introduced arch independent
configs to choose if the physical address can be represented using
32 bits (PHYS_ADDR_T_32) or 64 bits (PHYS_ADDR_T_64).
For now only ARM_32 provides support to enable 32 bit physical
addressing.
When PHYS_ADDR_T_32 is defined, PADDR_BITS is set to 32.
When PHYS_ADDR_T_64 is defined with ARM_32, PADDR_BITS is set to 40.
When PHYS_ADDR_T_64 is defined with ARM_64, PADDR_BITS is set to 48.
The last two is same as the current configuration used today on Xen.
