Hi Alexander, Heinrich,
(Resending since i was too quick on the trigger forgot to cc the public
mailing list. Sorry for the mess)
I can't get an armv7 board (STM32MP157C-DK2) to boot with bootefi on
specific kernel/uboot configurations.
u-boot version: U-Boot 2019.04-rc3
kernel version: 5.0.0-rc3
What works:
- bootefi + 'dtb=' on kernel cmdline regardless of kernel config
- bootefi + fdtcontroladdr if CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y on my kernel config
What doesn't work:
bootefi + fdtcontroladdr if CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is not set.
Once this config is selected the kernel hangs on a BUG_ON() in arm_pte_alloc()
Adding a dump_stack() there throws the relevant information.

I've found some hacky workarounds on that and i'd like some input on what's
actually wrong
- Workaround 1, add a bogus bootefi cmd
instead of
load mmc 0:5 $kernel_addr_r efi/BOOT/zImage;
bootefi $kernel_addr_r $fdtcontroladdr
doing
bootefi $kernel_addr_r $fdtcontroladdr
load mmc 0:5 $kernel_addr_r efi/BOOT/zImage
bootefi $kernel_addr_r $fdtcontroladdr' works
The first bootefi command will fail since there's nothing loaded on
that address yet. What happens is that u-boot adds an extra
memory_map, via efi_add_memory_map() and the kernel boots

This loads the fdt on c7ef4000 (which is more than a page). Changing
the address from 0x7f00000 to 7EFF000, on the original code, works as
well
