The Ux500 platforms have some memory carveouts set aside for
communicating with the modem and for the initial secure software
(ISSW). These areas are protected by the memory controller
and will result in an external abort if accessed like common
read/write memory.
On the legacy boot loaders, these were set aside by using
cmdline arguments such as this:
mem=96M@0 mem_mtrace=15M@96M mem_mshared=1M@111M
mem_modem=16M@112M mali.mali_mem=32M@128M mem=96M@160M
hwmem=127M@256M mem_issw=1M@383M mem_ram_console=1M@384M
mem=638M@385M
Reserve the relevant areas in the device tree instead. The
"mali", "hwmem", "mem_ram_console" and the trailing 1MB at the
end of the memory reservations in the list are not relevant for
the upstream kernel as these are nowadays replaced with
upstream technologies such as CMA. The modem and ISSW
reservations are necessary.
This was manifested in a bug that surfaced in response to

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
