      x86: Add xloadflags bit for EFI runtime support on kexec · 456a29dd
      Dave Young 提交于
      Old kexec-tools can not load new kernels. The reason is kexec-tools does
      not fill efi_info in x86 setup header previously, thus EFI failed to
      initialize.  In new kexec-tools it will by default to fill efi_info and
      pass other EFI required infomation to 2nd kernel so kexec kernel EFI
      initialization can succeed finally.
      
      To prevent from breaking userspace, add a new xloadflags bit so
      kexec-tools can check the flag and switch to old logic.

      x86/efi: Pass necessary EFI data for kexec via setup_data · 1fec0533
      Dave Young 提交于
      Add a new setup_data type SETUP_EFI for kexec use.  Passing the saved
      fw_vendor, runtime, config tables and EFI runtime mappings.
      
      When entering virtual mode, directly mapping the EFI runtime regions
      which we passed in previously. And skip the step to call
      SetVirtualAddressMap().
      
      Specially for HP z420 workstation we need save the smbios physical
      address.  The kernel boot sequence proceeds in the following order.
      Step 2 requires efi.smbios to be the physical address.  However, I found
      that on HP z420 EFI system table has a virtual address of SMBIOS in step
      1.  Hence, we need set it back to the physical address with the smbios
      in efi_setup_data.  (When it is still the physical address, it simply
      sets the same value.)
      
      1. efi_init() - Set efi.smbios from EFI system table
      2. dmi_scan_machine() - Temporary map efi.smbios to access SMBIOS table
      3. efi_enter_virtual_mode() - Map EFI ranges
      
      Tested on ovmf+qemu, lenovo thinkpad, a dell laptop and an
      HP z420 workstation.

      Modify UEFI anti-bricking code · f8b84043
      Matthew Garrett 提交于
      This patch reworks the UEFI anti-bricking code, including an effective
      reversion of cc5a080c and 31ff2f20. It turns out that calling
      QueryVariableInfo() from boot services results in some firmware
      implementations jumping to physical addresses even after entering virtual
      mode, so until we have 1:1 mappings for UEFI runtime space this isn't
      going to work so well.
      
      Reverting these gets us back to the situation where we'd refuse to create
      variables on some systems because they classify deleted variables as "used"
      until the firmware triggers a garbage collection run, which they won't do
      until they reach a lower threshold. This results in it being impossible to
      install a bootloader, which is unhelpful.
      
      Feedback from Samsung indicates that the firmware doesn't need more than
      5KB of storage space for its own purposes, so that seems like a reasonable
      threshold. However, there's still no guarantee that a platform will attempt
      garbage collection merely because it drops below this threshold. It seems
      that this is often only triggered if an attempt to write generates a
      genuine EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES error. We can force that by attempting to
      create a variable larger than the remaining space. This should fail, but if
      it somehow succeeds we can then immediately delete it.
      
      I've tested this on the UEFI machines I have available, but I don't have
      a Samsung and so can't verify that it avoids the bricking problem.

      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, efi: Handover Protocol · 9ca8f72a
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      As things currently stand, traditional EFI boot loaders and the EFI
      boot stub are carrying essentially the same initialisation code
      required to setup an EFI machine for booting a kernel. There's really
      no need to have this code in two places and the hope is that, with
      this new protocol, initialisation and booting of the kernel can be
      left solely to the kernel's EFI boot stub. The responsibilities of the
      boot loader then become,
      
         o Loading the kernel image from boot media
      
      File system code still needs to be carried by boot loaders for the
      scenario where the kernel and initrd files reside on a file system
      that the EFI firmware doesn't natively understand, such as ext4, etc.
      
         o Providing a user interface
      
      Boot loaders still need to display any menus/interfaces, for example
      to allow the user to select from a list of kernels.
      
      Bump the boot protocol number because we added the 'handover_offset'
      field to indicate the location of the handover protocol entry point.

      x86: Add device tree support · da6b737b
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 提交于
      This patch adds minimal support for device tree on x86. The device
      tree blob is passed to the kernel via setup_data which requires at
      least boot protocol 2.09.
      
      Memory size, restricted memory regions, boot arguments are gathered
      the traditional way so things like cmd_line are just here to let the
      code compile.
      
      The current plan is use the device tree as an extension and to gather
      information which can not be enumerated and would have to be hardcoded
      otherwise. This includes things like 
         - which devices are on this I2C/SPI bus?
         - how are the interrupts wired to IO APIC?
         - where could my hpet be?

      x86, olpc: Add support for calling into OpenFirmware · fd699c76
      Andres Salomon 提交于
      Add support for saving OFW's cif, and later calling into it to run OFW
      commands.  OFW remains resident in memory, living within virtual range
      0xff800000 - 0xffc00000.  A single page directory entry points to the
      pgdir that OFW actually uses, so rather than saving the entire page
      table, we grab and install that one entry permanently in the kernel's
      page table.
      
      This is currently only used by the OLPC XO.  Note that this particular
      calling convention breaks PAE and PAT, and so cannot be used on newer
      x86 hardware.

      x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT boot support · 31625340
      Joseph Cihula 提交于
      This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
      Execution Technology (Intel TXT).
      
      Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
      Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
      provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.
      
      Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).
      
      Intel TXT in Brief:
      o  Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
      o  Data protection in case of improper shutdown
      o  Measurement and verification of launched environment
      
      Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
      non-vPro systems.  It is currently available on desktop systems based on
      the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
      dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
      Express chipsets.
      
      For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
      This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
      has been updated for the new released platforms.
      
      A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
      configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
      in this patch.
      
      This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
      documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
      and boot detection of a TXT launch.  Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
      will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
      properly.

      x86: add extension fields for bootloader type and version · 5031296c
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      A long ago, in days of yore, it all began with a god named Thor.
      There were vikings and boats and some plans for a Linux kernel
      header.  Unfortunately, a single 8-bit field was used for bootloader
      type and version.  This has generally worked without *too* much pain,
      but we're getting close to flat running out of ID fields.
      
      Add extension fields for both type and version.  The type will be
      extended if it the old field is 0xE; the version is a simple MSB
      extension.
      
      Keep /proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_type containing
      (type << 4) + (ver & 0xf) for backwards compatiblity, but also add
      /proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_version which contains the full version
      number.

      The format:
      
      1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
      2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
         distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
      3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
         underscores.
