probe_ram_size_by_alias() detects whether a probe address still aliases
a lower address by writing through one address and reading through the
other.
On i.MX95 this occasionally reported a false non-alias when the alias
read happened immediately after the write.
A memory barrier alone, mb(), was tested but did not make the failure go
away. This suggests that ordering the CPU accesses is not sufficient for
this probe, likely because the issue is in the path to the memory
controller rather than in the core itself.
Read the written address back before checking the alias address. This
appears to force the write to become observable at the probe address
before using the alias read to decide whether the tested address range
exists.
If the readback does not match the written pattern, restore the saved
value and continue with the next check. This keeps the probe robust for
addresses that do not reliably retain the test pattern.

Add probe_ram_size_by_alias() to detect RAM size by checking whether a
write to one address aliases to another address.
Compared to get_ram_size(), this function allows the caller to:
- limit probing to a small set of required accesses
- avoid touching reserved or already used memory regions
- handle non-linear alias patterns
On the iMX95 SoC, when used with LPDDR5, accesses beyond the end of an 8GB DDR
configuration do not alias to the expected linear wrap-around addresses.
Instead, the aliased addresses appear to follow a pattern related to the
DDRC bank and bank-group addresses mapping. Experimentally, the observed
pattern is:
Write Read
y00000000 -> x0001c000
y00004000 -> x00018000
y00008000 -> x00014000
y0000c000 -> x00010000
y00010000 -> x0000c000
y00014000 -> x00008000
y00018000 -> x00004000
y0001c000 -> x00000000
This helper makes it possible to probe RAM size by explicitly specifying
the probed address and the expected alias address for each size check.

The get_ram_size() function fails to restore the original RAM data when
the data cache is enabled. This issue was observed on an AM625 R5 SPL
with 512MB of RAM and is a regression that became visible with
commit bc07851897 ("board: ti: Pull redundant DDR functions to a common
location and Fixup DDR size when ECC is enabled").
Observed boot failure messages:
Warning: Did not detect image signing certificate. Skipping authentication to prevent boot failure. This will fail on Security Enforcing(HS-SE) devices
Authentication passed
Starting ATF on ARM64 core...
The system then hangs. This indicates that without a data cache flush,
data in the cache is not coherent with RAM, preventing the system from
booting. This was verified by printing the content of this address when
the issue occurs.
Add a data cache flush after each restore operation to resolve this
issue.

When the data cache (dcache) is disabled, calling related
status functions can lead to compilation errors due to
undefined references.
Adding a !CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(SYS_DCACHE_OFF) check before
invoking dcache_status() (used in common/memsize.c:get_ram_size())
and mmu_status() (from arch/arm/include/asm/io.h).
Without this check, builds with dcache disabled will fail to compile.

Ensure that every write is flushed to memory and afterward reads are
from memory.
Since the algorithm rely on the fact that accessing to not existent
memory lead to write at addr / 2 without this modification accesses
to aliased (not physically present) addresses are cached and
wrong size is returned.
This was discovered while working on a TI AM625 based board
where cache is normally enabled, see commit c02712a748 ("arm: mach-k3: Enable dcache in SPL").

The changes to this generic function, which is intended to help with

(which in turn lead to boot failures) on other platforms which were
previously functional.
For now do overflow check only for powerpc mpc85xx platform. It is needed
to prevent crashing of P1/P2 boards with 4GB DDR module in 32-bit mode.

Move this out of the common header and include it only where needed. In

cases where we did not need to include <asm/global_data.h> at all, so

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.
