EZSDK Memory Map

Memory Map in the current EZSDK (version 5.02 onwards)

This document explains the memory map (memory layout) used in EZSDK.

The total system memory is divided across various processors/subsystems. Following are the broad categories of usage:

1. Linux Memory - One or more memory partitions are given to the Linux kernel memory manager.
2. CMEM - Contiguous physical memory used by C6accel to create buffers. These buffers are passed to the DSP.
3. Shared Region (Host Configured at Load Time) - Memory used for creating shared regions that are dynamically configured from host ARM at the firmware load time. However, the default shared region (Id 0) is currently not configurable from host processor.
4. Slave Local Heap (Host Configured at Load Time) - Memory used for creating local heaps on slave processors that are dynamically configured from host at the firmware load time. BIOS system heap is currently not configurable from host.
5. Slave Executable - One or more memory segments used to place code and data sections in an executable. These segements are defined in XDC configuration files as explained later.
6. Memory Configuration - This memory is reserved for passing memory and other system information between host and slave processors.

The following table shows the default memory map for a system that has 1 GB of system memory.

Color Code
Linux Memory
Memory used for regions that can be adjusted without rebuilding Media Controller executable.
Memory Reserved for Media Controller Executables

NOTE:

1. Shared Region IPC_SR_COMMON is statically configured within all slave executables.
2. SysBios System Heap is statically configured within each slave executable and the memory is allocated in the bss section.

H/W and S/W Limitations To Consider For Deciding Memory Map

1. Hardware Limitations
   1. Media Controller cannot access any program memory above 0xA0000000.
   2. Media Controller cannot access any data memory above 0xE0000000.
   3. AMMU in Media Controller handles large memory segments of size 512MB/32MB only and there can be 4 such segments. As one 512MB address range is used to access memory mapped registers, only 3 regions can be used to access DDR.
2. Software Limitations
   1. Default build of Linux handles memory of size 768MB. Configure different memory split for kernel/user memory split, or use HIGHMEM support to allocate more memory to Linux.
   2. Many memory sections are still statically defined within Media Controller firmwares and DSP executables.
      1. Default Shared Region (IPC_SR_COMMON) is statically defined in Media Controller firmware and DSP executables. Changing address or size of this requires changes in multiple places.
      2. Following are statically defined in Media Controller firmwares. These have to be placed in non-cached region.
         1. MC-HDVPSS hardware descriptors (MC_HDVPSS_DESC)
         2. Shared Memory for Fbdev (MC_HDVPSS_V4L2_FBDEF_MEM )
         3. Shared Memory used for IPC between HOST and MC-HDVPSS firmware (MC_HDVPSS_NOTIFY_MEM)
         4. SysBIOS System Heaps are statically defined within Media Controller firmwares and DSP executables.
      3. UIA/Log buffers are statically defined within Media Controller firmwares and DSP executables.
      4. Though Frame Buffers are accessed only by Hardware accelerators, still this memory section needs to be configured in the AMMU as Media Controller core still access frame buffer regions for the below reasons.
         1. OMX embeddeds Meta information about Frame at the end of frame buffer
         2. Shared Region modules embeds meta information in Frame Buffer regions.

Memory Configuration Flow

Firmware loader load the Dynamically configurable Memory Section info from firmware_loader/src/memsegdef_default.c to MEMCFG_SPACE before loading slave binaries.

During bootup of Video-M3 and VPSS-M3, they read the dynamically memory section info from MEMCFG_SPACE and creates the Local Heaps and Shared regions. This method is not yet integrated to DSP and A8 side of applications, DSP and A8 reads the dynamically configurable memory section info from ti/omx/memcfg/memtbl_cfg.h

Finding Memory Usage Statistics For Local Heaps and Shared Regions

You can use 'sys_top' Linux utility to find out memory usage statistics

% sys_top

Configuring Slave Processor Heaps and Shared Regions From Host ARM

Local heaps on the slave processors and heaps in the shared regions can be made configurable from Linux at the time of loading of slave executable. Information about the memory segments for these heaps are provided to the firmware loader. Currently, this information is provided in the file memsegdef.c as a table. Each entry of the table is defined by the type LDR_Memseg and it can be found in the header file ldr_memseg.h.

Following fields of the structure LDR_Memseg are used:

• name : Name of the memory segment
• size : Size of the segment in bytes
• seg_type : Type of the memory segment. LDR_SEGMENT_TYPE_DYMANMIC_LOACL_HEAP and LDR_SEGMENT_TYPE_DYNAMIC_SHARED_HEAP are used.
• system_addr : System address of the segment.
• slave_virtual_addr : Virtual address used by slave. Currently, it is same as system_addr.
• master_core_id : Core id for the processor that owns it.
• core_id_mask : Specifies set of core id masks for which the segment is valid
• shared_region_id : Shared Region Id, when used across multiple cores

In this release, following segments are configurable by the firmware loader.

• MC_HDVPSS_INT_HEAP_CACHED
• MC_HDVICP2_INT_HEAP_CACHED
• IPC_SR_FRAME_BUFFERS
• IPC_SR_MC_HDVICP2_HDVPSS

Modifying Memory Map

Linux Kernel Memory

Linux size is passed though the mem parameter in the bootargs environment variable, base address is always <LINUX_MEM_1> -

 % setenv bootargs 'console=ttyO2,115200n8 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=<nfs-server-ip>:<path-to-nfs-share>,nolock rw mem=<size of LINUX_MEM_1>@<addr of LINUX_MEM_1> mem=<size of LINUX_MEM_2>@<addr of LINUX_MEM_2>'

For 1GB default memory map,

 % setenv bootargs 'console=ttyO2,115200n8 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=<nfs-server-ip>:<path-to-nfs-share>,nolock rw mem=364M'

The second partition can be added to linux mem=320M@0x9FC00000 Ex: mem=364M mem=320M@0x9FC00000

When the 2 partition is set it throws below error while running EZSDK. "vmap allocation for size 197136384 failed: use vmalloc=500M to increase size."

To solve this rebuild the kernel with HIGHMEM support enabled. This can be enabled by menuconfig->Kernel Features->HIGH Memory Support. Please note Linux partiton memory needs to start and end at 4MB boundary.

For quick check you can pass vmalloc=500M to bootargs, but note that the actual physical memory which can be managed by Linux would less that what is passed via mem= bootargs.

Linux Notify Module Memory

The memory for kernel Notify module is specified through Linux bootargs. This address also used in the MC-HDVPSS firmware.

• notifyk.vpssm3_sva=<addr of MC_HDVPSS_NOTIFY_MEM>

FbDev Memory

Fbdev memory address is specified through the sbufaddr parameter.

• insmod vpss.ko sbufaddr=<addr of MC_HDVPSS_V4L2_FBDEF_MEM>

CMEM memory

CMEM memory address and size (used by DSP) are passed as module install arguments as shown below

• insmod cmemk.ko phys_start=<addr of CMEM> phys_end=<addr of next segment> pools=20x4096

Heaps and Shared Regions Configured at Load Time

To change memory for heaps and shared regions at load time,

1. Modify appropriate file with new memory map in $(EZSDK_INSTALL_DIR)/board-support/media-controller-utils_2_02_00_08/src/mm_host_util
   1. Ex: memsegdef_dm81xxbm.c
2. Rebuild the mm_host_util, this is the host side utility
3. Run the utility to generate .bin file which needs to be fed to firmware loader as input file
   1. Ex: mm_dm81xxbm.bin file gets generated.
4. While loading the firmware pass the above generated .bin file in the command line argument
   1. Ex: ./firmware_loader 1 dm816x_hdvicp.xem3 start mm_dm81xxbm.bin
   2. Ex: ./firmware_loader 2 dm816x_hdvpss.xem3 start mm_dm81xxbm.bin

Note: if the .bin file not passed in the firmware command line, then the default memory map is used as per the memory map defined in file $(EZSDK_INSTALL_DIR)/board-support/media-controller-utils_2_02_00_08/src/firmware_loader/memsegdef_default.c

MC-HDVICP2 & MC-HDVPSS firmwares

These are provided as binaries.

DSP for OMX

1. It uses the same memory segment definition file $(EZSDK_INSTALL_DIR)/component-sources/omx_05_02_00_09/packages/ti/omx/build/MemSegmentDefinition.xs.
2. DSP build also uses Shared Region information from file $(EZSDK_INSTALL_DIR)/component-sources/omx_05_02_00_09/packages/ti/omx/memcfg/memtbl_cfg.h through below defines, Ensure that these information matches the mem cfg defined in mm_host_util. This dependency will be removed in the patch release .
   1. MEMCFG_SRBASE1
   2. MEMCFG_SRSIZE1
   3. MEMCFG_SRBASE2
   4. MEMCFG_SRSIZE2
3. Rebuild DSP side OMX library & application.

Linux applications for OMX

1. Linux side app uses Shared Region information address & size from file as mentioned in the "DSP for OMX" sections. The same file is used in Linux side. This dependency will be removed in the patch release .
2. Rebuild Linux side OMX libraries & application

DSP C6accel Application

1. Modify the memory segments in file $(C6ACCEL_INSTALL_DIR)/soc/packages/ti/c6accel_unitservers/TI816X/serverplatforms.xs
2. Rebuild DSP executable binary.

Changing Memory Map For 512MB DM816x Board

Following are the list of changes required for 512 MB memory map in DM816x board

Step 1: Update LISA Registers

In the default uboot program ( in file $(EZSDK_ROOT)/board-support/u-boot-<REL-TAG>/board/<ti8168 or ti8148>/ti/evm.c), 2GB physical memory is mapped using register 3 and 4. Register 1 and 2 are unused.

• System Address 0x80000000 is mapped to physical address 0x00000000
• System Address 0xC0000000 is mapped to physical address 0x20000000

Following code programs the LISA registers for 2GB physical memory (default configuration).

/* Program the DMM to for 2 GB (interleaved) configuration */

__raw_writel(0x0, DMM_LISA_MAP__0); /* Register 0 is unused */

__raw_writel(0x0, DMM_LISA_MAP__1); /* Register 1 is unused */

__raw_writel(0x80640300, DMM_LISA_MAP__2); /* Register 2 maps 0x80000000 to 0x00000000, length 1GB */

__raw_writel(0xC0640320, DMM_LISA_MAP__3); /* Register 3 maps 0xC0000000 to 0x20000000, length 1GB */

For a 512MB system, we create 2 system address spaces of length 512MB and map to the same physical memory. On Media Controllers, the first address range is used to access DDR with cache enabled and the second address is used to access the same DDR with cache disabled.

• System Address 0x80000000 is mapped to physical address 0x00000000
• System Address 0xA0000000 is mapped to physical address 0x00000000

Following code programs the LISA registers for 512MB physical memory.

/* Program the DMM to for 512MB (interleaved) configuration */

__raw_writel(0x0, DMM_LISA_MAP__0); /* Register 0 is unused */

__raw_writel(0x0, DMM_LISA_MAP__1); /* Register 1 is unused */

__raw_writel(0x80540300, DMM_LISA_MAP__2); /* Register 2 maps 0x80000000 to 0x00000000, length 512MB */

__raw_writel(0xA0540300, DMM_LISA_MAP__3); /* Register 3 maps 0xA0000000 to 0x00000000, length 512MB */

Note: For DM814X device ensure to update the while instructions immediately after the above lines in the file to reflect the same settings.

Step 2: Update Memory Map

In a 512MB system, Linux memory manager is given only one memory segment of reduced size and the Shared Region for video buffers is shifted to a different place to fit within 512MB. Changes can be found in the first two entries in the following table.

Step 2.1: Change Linux Memory size

Change Linux memory sizeto 176 MB starting at 0x80000000

Step 2.2: Change Location of Video Frame Buffers

Change location of IPC_SR_FRAME_BUFFERS to 0xAB000000. This change needs to be done in the firmware loader input file as explained earlier.

Step 2.3: Update memory map for DSP

Follow the steps mentioned in section EZSDK_Memory_Map#DSP_for_OMX.

Step 2.4: Update memory map for Linux side app

Follow the steps mentioned in section EZSDK_Memory_Map#Linux_applications_for_OMX.

Changing Memory Map For 512MB DM814x Board

Following are the list of changes required for 512 MB memory map in DM814x version 2.1 board

Step 1: Update LISA Registers

Update the macros PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__2 and PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__3 in ddr_defs_ti814x.h ($(EZSDK_ROOT)/board-support/u-boot-<REL-TAG>/arch/arm/include/asm/arch-ti81xx)

Default values

#define PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__2 0x0

#define PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__3 0x80640300

Modified values for 512 MB

#define PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__2 0x80540300

#define PG2_1_DMM_LISA_MAP__3 0xA0540300

Re-build the u-boot with the new changes. Copy the generated u-boot.bin and MLO and use them to boot the board

Step 2: Update Memory Map

In a 512MB system, Linux memory manager is given only one memory segment of reduced size and the Shared Region for video buffers is shifted to a different place to fit within 512MB. Changes can be found in the first two entries in the following table.

Step 2.1: Change Linux Memory size

Change Linux memory size to 176 MB . This can be done by setting the MEM to 176M in bootargs

Step 2.2: Change Location of Video Frame Buffers

Change location of IPC_SR_FRAME_BUFFERS to 0xAB000000. This change needs to be done in the firmware loader input file. Update the system_addr and slave_virtual_addr values for IPC_SR_FRAME_BUFFERS from 0xB3D00000 to 0xAB000000 in the source memsegdef_default.c ($(EZSDK_ROOT)/board-support/media-controller-utils_<REL-TAG>/src/firmware_loader). Rebuild the firmware loader and copy the generated firmware loader in the target filesystem ($(EZSDK_ROOT)/filesys/usr/bin)

Step 2.3: Update memory map for DSP

Follow the steps mentioned in section EZSDK_Memory_Map#DSP_for_OMX.

Step 2.4: Update memory map for Linux side app

Modify the macro MEMCFG_SRBASE2 in memtbl_cfg.h ($(EZSDK_ROOT)/component-sources/omx_<REL-TAG>/src/ti/omx/memcfg) from 0xB3D00000 to 0xAB000000. Rebuilt the OMX samples.
