    efi/libstub: arm: Print CPU boot mode and MMU state at boot · 2a55280a
    Ard Biesheuvel 提交于
    On 32-bit ARM, we may boot at HYP mode, or with the MMU and caches off
    (or both), even though the EFI spec does not actually support this.
    While booting at HYP mode is something we might tolerate, fiddling
    with the caches is a more serious issue, as disabling the caches is
    tricky to do safely from C code, and running without the Dcache makes
    it impossible to support unaligned memory accesses, which is another
    explicit requirement imposed by the EFI spec.
    
    So take note of the CPU mode and MMU state in the EFI stub diagnostic
    output so that we can easily diagnose any issues that may arise from
    this. E.g.,
    
      EFI stub: Entering in SVC mode with MMU enabled
    
    Also, capture the CPSR and SCTLR system register values at EFI stub
    entry, and after ExitBootServices() returns, and check whether the
    MMU and Dcache were disabled at any point. If this is the case, a
    diagnostic message like the following will be emitted:
    
      efi: [Firmware Bug]: EFI stub was entered with MMU and Dcache disabled, please fix your firmware!
      efi: CPSR at EFI stub entry        : 0x600001d3
      efi: SCTLR at EFI stub entry       : 0x00c51838
      efi: CPSR after ExitBootServices() : 0x600001d3
      efi: SCTLR after ExitBootServices(): 0x00c50838
