Function Documentation

◆ fit_payload_arch()

bool fit_payload_arch ( struct prog payload,
struct fit_config_node config,
struct region kernel,
struct region fdt,
struct region initrd 
)

The kernel ARM documentation recommends loading the kernel above 32MiB in order to avoid the need to need to relocate prior to decompression.

The code assumes that bootmem_walk provides a sorted list of memory regions, starting from the lowest address. The order of the calls here doesn't matter, as the placement is enforced in the called functions. For details check code on top.

To ensure the fdt is not overwritten by the kernel decompressor, place the fdt above the 128 MB from the start of RAM, as recommended by the kernel documentation.
