util/x86: add page page table generator
Certain platforms need paging enabled during cache-as-ram because dirty lines are being evicted by a heavy speculative frontend. Paging needs to be enabled in order to utilize the NX (no execute) bit for the regions that are strictly data (such as the stack). This utility creates 32-bit PAE page tables using a static address space, and the resulting tables have entries for all the PDPTEs such that it makes it easy to enable 2MiB naturally aligned DRAM mappings once memory is trained. Either binary files can be generated or C files. The pages that are linked use a default base address of 0xaa000000 that can be changed at runtime to reflect where the page tables are actually loaded. Or specify a physical address on the command line that is known a priori. iomap.txt: 0xd0000000, 0x100000000, UC, NX # All of MMIO 0xff000000, 0x100000000, WP, # memory-mapped SPI 0xffff8000, 0x100000000, WP, # XIP bootblock 0xfef00000, 0xfefc0000, WB, NX # CAR 0xfef40000, 0xfefc0000, WB, # verstage 0xfef20000, 0xfefc0000, WB, # romstage 0xfef40000, 0xfefc0000, WB, # fsp-m $ go run util/x86/x86_page_tables.go --iomap_file=iomap.txt Merged address space: 00000000d0000000 -- 00000000fef00000 UC NX : 375 big 256 small 00000000fef00000 -- 00000000fef20000 WB NX : 0 big 32 small 00000000fef20000 -- 00000000fefc0000 WB : 0 big 160 small 00000000fefc0000 -- 00000000ff000000 UC NX : 0 big 64 small 00000000ff000000 -- 0000000100000000 WP : 8 big 0 small Total Pages of page tables: 5 Pages linked using base address of 0xaa000000.
