      efi: Add efi= parameter parsing to the EFI boot stub · 5a17dae4
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
      particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
      when reading files from the EFI System Partition.
      
      One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
      a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
      workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with
      commit 4bf7111f ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and
      that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt
      initrd rather than any kind of crash.
      
      efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different
      execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot.
      
      There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk,
      but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into
      firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving
      the workaround enabled by default.
      
      Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're
      using the current value of 1MB.

      efi: efistub: Refactor stub components · bd669475
      Ard Biesheuvel 提交于
      In order to move from the #include "../../../xxxxx.c" anti-pattern used
      by both the x86 and arm64 versions of the stub to a static library
      linked into either the kernel proper (arm64) or a separate boot
      executable (x86), there is some prepatory work required.
      
      This patch does the following:
      - move forward declarations of functions shared between the arch
        specific and the generic parts of the stub to include/linux/efi.h
      - move forward declarations of functions shared between various .c files
        of the generic stub code to a new local header file called "efistub.h"
      - add #includes to all .c files which were formerly relying on the
        #includor to include the correct header files
      - remove all static modifiers from functions which will need to be
        externally visible once we move to a static library

      x86/efi: Firmware agnostic handover entry points · b8ff87a6
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      The EFI handover code only works if the "bitness" of the firmware and
      the kernel match, i.e. 64-bit firmware and 64-bit kernel - it is not
      possible to mix the two. This goes against the tradition that a 32-bit
      kernel can be loaded on a 64-bit BIOS platform without having to do
      anything special in the boot loader. Linux distributions, for one thing,
      regularly run only 32-bit kernels on their live media.
      
      Despite having only one 'handover_offset' field in the kernel header,
      EFI boot loaders use two separate entry points to enter the kernel based
      on the architecture the boot loader was compiled for,
      
          (1) 32-bit loader: handover_offset
          (2) 64-bit loader: handover_offset + 512
      
      Since we already have two entry points, we can leverage them to infer
      the bitness of the firmware we're running on, without requiring any boot
      loader modifications, by making (1) and (2) valid entry points for both
      CONFIG_X86_32 and CONFIG_X86_64 kernels.
      
      To be clear, a 32-bit boot loader will always use (1) and a 64-bit boot
      loader will always use (2). It's just that, if a single kernel image
      supports (1) and (2) that image can be used with both 32-bit and 64-bit
      boot loaders, and hence both 32-bit and 64-bit EFI.
      
      (1) and (2) must be 512 bytes apart at all times, but that is already
      part of the boot ABI and we could never change that delta without
      breaking existing boot loaders anyhow.

      x86/efi: Add early thunk code to go from 64-bit to 32-bit · 0154416a
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      Implement the transition code to go from IA32e mode to protected mode in
      the EFI boot stub. This is required to use 32-bit EFI services from a
      64-bit kernel.
      
      Since EFI boot stub is executed in an identity-mapped region, there's
      not much we need to do before invoking the 32-bit EFI boot services.
      However, we do reload the firmware's global descriptor table
      (efi32_boot_gdt) in case things like timer events are still running in
      the firmware.

      It's not possible to dereference the EFI System table directly when

      In checkin
      
          5551a34e x86-64, build: Always pass in -mno-sse
      
      we unconditionally added -mno-sse to the main build, to keep newer
      compilers from generating SSE instructions from autovectorization.
      However, this did not extend to the special environments
      (arch/x86/boot, arch/x86/boot/compressed, and arch/x86/realmode/rm).
      Add -mno-sse to the compiler command line for these environments, and
      add -mno-mmx to all the environments as well, as we don't want a
      compiler to generate MMX code either.
      
      This patch also removes a $(cc-option) call for -m32, since we have
      long since stopped supporting compilers too old for the -m32 option,
      and in fact hardcode it in other places in the Makefiles.

      x86 efi: bugfix interrupt disabling sequence · 0ce6cda2
      Bart Kuivenhoven 提交于
      The problem in efi_main was that the idt was cleared before the
      interrupts were disabled.
      
      The UEFI spec states that interrupts aren't used so this shouldn't be
      too much of a problem. Peripherals however don't necessarily know about
      this and thus might cause interrupts to happen anyway. Even if
      ExitBootServices() has been called.
      
      This means there is a risk of an interrupt being triggered while the IDT
      register is nullified and the interrupt bit hasn't been cleared,
      allowing for a triple fault.
      
      This patch disables the interrupt flag, while leaving the existing IDT
      in place. The CPU won't care about the IDT at all as long as the
      interrupt bit is off, so it's safe to leave it in place as nothing will
      ever happen to it.

      x86: EFI stub support for large memory maps · d2078d5a
      Linn Crosetto 提交于
      This patch fixes a problem with EFI memory maps larger than 128 entries

      in boot_params and an eventual halt when checking the map size in
      sanitize_e820_map().
      
      If the number of map entries is greater than what can fit in e820_map,
      add the extra entries to the setup_data list using type SETUP_E820_EXT.
      These extra entries are then picked up when the setup_data list is
      parsed in parse_e820_ext().
