Modify the allocation of app sections in accordance with the
requirements for ARM MMU:
- Each section size must be a multiple of 4KB (Page size)
- Each section must be aligned to 4KB boundary

this looks wrong, it has some flags that are not needed.

#define MMU_L1_PGTABFLAGS     (PMD_TYPE_PTE | PMD_PTE_PXN | PTE_WRITE_THROUGH | \
                               PMD_PTE_DOM(0))

Ok. Will look into it. But changing it is not fixing the issue.

flags = enter_critical_section();
lldbg("Write TTBR = 0x%08x\n", tcb->pgtbl);
cp15_wrttb((uint32_t)tcb->pgtbl);
cp15_invalidate_tlbs();

We may also need to invalidate the instruction cache.

mcr p15, 0, r0, c7, c1, 0

I thought so too. We can try it.


// Update the L2 page table entry.
idx = (start & 0x000ff000) >> 12;
val = start & PTE_SMALL_PADDR_MASK;

If we are filling the addresses from only the start in the page table, it will miss some entries before start and after end. I think it might not be right?? (May cause prefetch abort when fetching the address that does not have an entry in secondary page table?)

Agreed. I will change it. But it will not affect our current issue.

if (!(start & SECTION_MASK) && !(size & SECTION_MASK)) {
// Yes. Update the section entry in the the L1 page table.
idx = start >> 20;
val = start & PMD_PTE_PADDR_MASK;

Not required at present, but may be needed to change the mask to section instead of PTE

Set the app pages as global (not using asid), correct the flags
while setting ttbr0, populate the l2 page table completely.

missing items :

1. indexing of l2 page tables might be wrong, curretnly l2_idx is 0
2. with current implementation, heap end is after page tables, need to
adjust it properly.
