      efi: Distinguish between "remaining space" and actually used space · 31ff2f20
      Matthew Garrett 提交于
      EFI implementations distinguish between space that is actively used by a
      variable and space that merely hasn't been garbage collected yet. Space
      that hasn't yet been garbage collected isn't available for use and so isn't
      counted in the remaining_space field returned by QueryVariableInfo().
      
      Combined with commit 68d92986 this can cause problems. Some implementations
      don't garbage collect until the remaining space is smaller than the maximum
      variable size, and as a result check_var_size() will always fail once more
      than 50% of the variable store has been used even if most of that space is
      marked as available for garbage collection. The user is unable to create
      new variables, and deleting variables doesn't increase the remaining space.
      
      The problem that 68d92986 was attempting to avoid was one where certain
      platforms fail if the actively used space is greater than 50% of the
      available storage space. We should be able to calculate that by simply
      summing the size of each available variable and subtracting that from
      the total storage space. With luck this will fix the problem described in
      https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55471 without permitting
      damage to occur to the machines 68d92986 was attempting to fix.

      efi: Pass boot services variable info to runtime code · cc5a080c
      Matthew Garrett 提交于
      EFI variables can be flagged as being accessible only within boot services.
      This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at
      runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results
      from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but
      that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully,
      calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more
      reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub
      up to the efi platform code.

      x86, efivars: firmware bug workarounds should be in platform code · a6e4d5a0
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      Let's not burden ia64 with checks in the common efivars code that we're not
      writing too much data to the variable store. That kind of thing is an x86
      firmware bug, plain and simple.
      
      efi_query_variable_store() provides platforms with a wrapper in which they can
      perform checks and workarounds for EFI variable storage bugs.

      efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilities · 83e68189
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from
      EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now
      indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with
      bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware.
      
      The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at,
      
          https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557
      
      which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is
      designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become
      bricked. Also, the following report,
      
          https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121
      
      details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check
      Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're
      running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression,
      
          if (!efi_enabled)
      
      hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time.
      
      Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons -
      what they really want access to is the list of available EFI
      facilities.
      
      For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke
      the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while
      the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were
      mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform
      driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which
      would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things).
      
      This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

      x86, efi: Set runtime_version to the EFI spec revision · 712ba9e9
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      efi.runtime_version is erroneously being set to the value of the
      vendor's firmware revision instead of that of the implemented EFI
      specification. We can't deduce which EFI functions are available based
      on the revision of the vendor's firmware since the version scheme is
      likely to be unique to each vendor.
      
      What we really need to know is the revision of the implemented EFI

      x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock (again) · bd52276f
      Jan Beulich 提交于
      Other than ix86, x86-64 on EFI so far didn't set the
      {g,s}et_wallclock accessors to the EFI routines, thus
      incorrectly using raw RTC accesses instead.
      
      Simply removing the #ifdef around the respective code isn't
      enough, however: While so far early get-time calls were done in
      physical mode, this doesn't work properly for x86-64, as virtual
      addresses would still need to be set up for all runtime regions
      (which wasn't the case on the system I have access to), so
      instead the patch moves the call to efi_enter_virtual_mode()
      ahead (which in turn allows to drop all code related to calling
      efi-get-time in physical mode).
      
      Additionally the earlier calling of efi_set_executable()
      requires the CPA code to cope, i.e. during early boot it must be
      avoided to call cpa_flush_array(), as the first thing this
      function does is a BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()).
      
      Also make the two EFI functions in question here static -
      they're not being referenced elsewhere.
      
      History:
      
          This commit was originally merged as bacef661 ("x86-64/efi:
          Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock") but it resulted in some
          ASUS machines no longer booting due to a firmware bug, and so was
          reverted in f026cfa8. A pre-emptive fix for the buggy ASUS
          firmware was merged in 03a1c254975e ("x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable
          mapping for virtual EFI calls") so now this patch can be
          reapplied.

      The only time we can call set_memory_uc() for a memory region is
      when it is part of the direct kernel mapping. For the case where

      This patch reimplements the fix from e8c71062 ("x86, efi:
      Calling __pa() with an ioremap()ed address is invalid") which
      was reverted in e1ad783b because it caused a regression on
      some MacBooks (they hung at boot). The regression was caused
      because the commit only marked EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA as
      E820_RESERVED_EFI, when it should have marked all regions that
      have the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute.
      
      Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use
      ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on
      CONFIG_X86_64 because of the way that the memory map might be
      configured as detailed in the following bug report,
      
      	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516
      
      e.g. some of the EFI memory regions *need* to be mapped as part
      of the direct kernel mapping.

      A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region
      with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying
      it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by
      ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache().
      
      Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use
      ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on
      CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really
      don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in
      the following bug report,
      
      	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516
      
      Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA
      regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on
      CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI
      regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to
      init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these
      regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM
      region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows
      us to delete efi_ioremap() completely.
