      x86/boot: Move compressed kernel to the end of the decompression buffer · 974f221c
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于 
      This change makes later calculations about where the kernel is located
easier to reason about. To better understand this change, we must first
clarify what 'VO' and 'ZO' are. These values were introduced in commits
by hpa:

  77d1a499 ("x86, boot: make symbols from the main vmlinux available")
  37ba7ab5 ("x86, boot: make kernel_alignment adjustable; new bzImage fields")

Specifically:

All names prefixed with 'VO_':

 - relate to the uncompressed kernel image

 - the size of the VO image is: VO__end-VO__text ("VO_INIT_SIZE" define)

All names prefixed with 'ZO_':

 - relate to the bootable compressed kernel image (boot/compressed/vmlinux),
   which is composed of the following memory areas:
     - head text
     - compressed kernel (VO image and relocs table)
     - decompressor code

 - the size of the ZO image is: ZO__end - ZO_startup_32 ("ZO_INIT_SIZE" define, though see below)

The 'INIT_SIZE' value is used to find the larger of the two image sizes:

 #define ZO_INIT_SIZE    (ZO__end - ZO_startup_32 + ZO_z_extract_offset)
 #define VO_INIT_SIZE    (VO__end - VO__text)

 #if ZO_INIT_SIZE > VO_INIT_SIZE
 # define INIT_SIZE ZO_INIT_SIZE
 #else
 # define INIT_SIZE VO_INIT_SIZE
 #endif

The current code uses extract_offset to decide where to position the
copied ZO (i.e. ZO starts at extract_offset). (This is why ZO_INIT_SIZE
currently includes the extract_offset.)

Why does z_extract_offset exist? It's needed because we are trying to minimize
the amount of RAM used for the whole act of creating an uncompressed, executable,
properly relocation-linked kernel image in system memory. We do this so that
kernels can be booted on even very small systems.

To achieve the goal of minimal memory consumption we have implemented an in-place
decompression strategy: instead of cleanly separating the VO and ZO images and
also allocating some memory for the decompression code's runtime needs, we instead
create this elaborate layout of memory buffers where the output (decompressed)
stream, as it progresses, overlaps with and destroys the input (compressed)
stream. This can only be done safely if the ZO image is placed to the end of the
VO range, plus a certain amount of safety distance to make sure that when the last
bytes of the VO range are decompressed, the compressed stream pointer is safely
beyond the end of the VO range.

z_extract_offset is calculated in arch/x86/boot/compressed/mkpiggy.c during
the build process, at a point when we know the exact compressed and
uncompressed size of the kernel images and can calculate this safe minimum
offset value. (Note that the mkpiggy.c calculation is not perfect, because
we don't know the decompressor used at that stage, so the z_extract_offset
calculation is necessarily imprecise and is mostly based on gzip internals -
we'll improve that in the next patch.)

When INIT_SIZE is bigger than VO_INIT_SIZE (uncommon but possible),
the copied ZO occupies the memory from extract_offset to the end of
decompression buffer. It overlaps with the soon-to-be-uncompressed kernel
like this:

                            |-----compressed kernel image------|
                            V                                  V
0                       extract_offset                      +INIT_SIZE
|-----------|---------------|-------------------------|--------|
            |               |                         |        |
          VO__text      startup_32 of ZO          VO__end    ZO__end
            ^                                         ^
            |-------uncompressed kernel image---------|

When INIT_SIZE is equal to VO_INIT_SIZE (likely) there's still space
left from end of ZO to the end of decompressing buffer, like below.

                            |-compressed kernel image-|
                            V                         V
0                       extract_offset                      +INIT_SIZE
|-----------|---------------|-------------------------|--------|
            |               |                         |        |
          VO__text      startup_32 of ZO          ZO__end    VO__end
            ^                                                  ^
            |------------uncompressed kernel image-------------|

To simplify calculations and avoid special cases, it is cleaner to
always place the compressed kernel image in memory so that ZO__end
is at the end of the decompression buffer, instead of placing t at
the start of extract_offset as is currently done.

This patch adds BP_init_size (which is the INIT_SIZE as passed in from
the boot_params) into asm-offsets.c to make it visible to the assembly
code.

Then when moving the ZO, it calculates the starting position of
the copied ZO (via BP_init_size and the ZO run size) so that the VO__end
will be at the end of the decompression buffer. To make the position
calculation safe, the end of ZO is page aligned (and a comment is added
to the existing VO alignment for good measure).

      x86/build: Build compressed x86 kernels as PIE · 6d92bc9d
      由 H.J. Lu 提交于 
      The 32-bit x86 assembler in binutils 2.26 will generate R_386_GOT32X
relocation to get the symbol address in PIC.  When the compressed x86
kernel isn't built as PIC, the linker optimizes R_386_GOT32X relocations
to their fixed symbol addresses.  However, when the compressed x86
kernel is loaded at a different address, it leads to the following
load failure:

  Failed to allocate space for phdrs

during the decompression stage.

If the compressed x86 kernel is relocatable at run-time, it should be
compiled with -fPIE, instead of -fPIC, if possible and should be built as
Position Independent Executable (PIE) so that linker won't optimize
R_386_GOT32X relocation to its fixed symbol address.

Older linkers generate R_386_32 relocations against locally defined
symbols, _bss, _ebss, _got and _egot, in PIE.  It isn't wrong, just less
optimal than R_386_RELATIVE.  But the x86 kernel fails to properly handle
R_386_32 relocations when relocating the kernel.  To generate
R_386_RELATIVE relocations, we mark _bss, _ebss, _got and _egot as
hidden in both 32-bit and 64-bit x86 kernels.

To build a 64-bit compressed x86 kernel as PIE, we need to disable the
relocation overflow check to avoid relocation overflow errors. We do
this with a new linker command-line option, -z noreloc-overflow, which
got added recently:

 commit 4c10bbaa0912742322f10d9d5bb630ba4e15dfa7
 Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
 Date:   Tue Mar 15 11:07:06 2016 -0700

    Add -z noreloc-overflow option to x86-64 ld

    Add -z noreloc-overflow command-line option to the x86-64 ELF linker to
    disable relocation overflow check.  This can be used to avoid relocation
    overflow check if there will be no dynamic relocation overflow at
    run-time.

The 64-bit compressed x86 kernel is built as PIE only if the linker supports
-z noreloc-overflow.  So far 64-bit relocatable compressed x86 kernel
boots fine even when it is built as a normal executable.

      x86, kaslr: Prevent .bss from overlaping initrd · e6023367
      由 Junjie Mao 提交于 
      When choosing a random address, the current implementation does not take into
account the reversed space for .bss and .brk sections. Thus the relocated kernel
may overlap other components in memory. Here is an example of the overlap from a
x86_64 kernel in qemu (the ranges of physical addresses are presented):

 Physical Address

    0x0fe00000                  --+--------------------+  <-- randomized base
                               /  |  relocated kernel  |

                                  |    relocs table    |   |
    0x13c1c2a8                    +--------------------+   .bss and .brk
                                  |                    |   |
    0x13ce6000                    +--------------------+   |
                                  |                    |  /
    0x13f77000                    |       initrd       |--
                                  |                    |
    0x13fef374                    +--------------------+

The initrd image will then be overwritten by the memset during early
initialization:

[    1.655204] Unpacking initramfs...
[    1.662831] Initramfs unpacking failed: junk in compressed archive

This patch prevents the above situation by requiring a larger space when looking
for a random kernel base, so that existing logic can effectively avoids the
overlap.

      x86/efi: Fixup GOT in all boot code paths · 9cb0e394
      由 Matt Fleming 提交于 
      Maarten reported that his Macbook pro 8.2 stopped booting after commit
f23cf8bd ("efi/x86: efistub: Move shared dependencies to
<asm/efi.h>"), the main feature of which is changing the visibility of
symbol 'efi_early' from local to global.

By making 'efi_early' global we end up requiring an entry in the Global
Offset Table. Unfortunately, while we do include code to fixup GOT
entries in the early boot code, it's only called after we've executed
the EFI boot stub.

What this amounts to is that references to 'efi_early' in the EFI boot
stub don't point to the correct place.

Since we've got multiple boot entry points we need to be prepared to
fixup the GOT in multiple places, while ensuring that we never do it
more than once, otherwise the GOT entries will still point to the wrong
place.

      We really only need one phys and one virt function call, and then only

Since we are not using the C type system anyway, we're not really losing
much by deleting the macros apart from no longer having a check that
we are passing the correct number of parameters. The lack of duplicated

      x86/efi: Firmware agnostic handover entry points · b8ff87a6
      由 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, build: Dynamically find entry points in compressed startup code · 99f857db
      由 David Woodhouse 提交于 
      We have historically hard-coded entry points in head.S just so it's easy
to build the executable/bzImage headers with references to them.

Unfortunately, this leads to boot loaders abusing these "known" addresses
even when they are *explicitly* told that they "should look at the ELF
header to find this address, as it may change in the future". And even
when the address in question *has* actually been changed in the past,
without fanfare or thought to compatibility.

Thus we have bootloaders doing stunningly broken things like jumping
to offset 0x200 in the kernel startup code in 64-bit mode, *hoping*
that startup_64 is still there (it has moved at least once
before). And hoping that it's actually a 64-bit kernel despite the
fact that we don't give them any indication of that fact.

This patch should hopefully remove the temptation to abuse internal
addresses in future, where sternly worded comments have not sufficed.
Instead of having hard-coded addresses and saying "please don't abuse
these", we actually pull the addresses out of the ELF payload into
zoffset.h, and make build.c shove them back into the right places in
the bzImage header.

Rather than including zoffset.h into build.c and thus having to rebuild
the tool for every kernel build, we parse it instead. The parsing code
is small and simple.

This patch doesn't actually move any of the interesting entry points, so
any offending bootloader will still continue to "work" after this patch
is applied. For some version of "work" which includes jumping into the
compressed payload and crashing, if the bzImage it's given is a 32-bit
kernel. No change there then.

[ hpa: some of the issues in the description are addressed or
  retconned by the 2.12 boot protocol.  This patch has been edited to
  only remove fixed addresses that were *not* thus retconned. ]

      x86, efi: Handover Protocol · 9ca8f72a
      由 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, efi: EFI boot stub support · 291f3632
      由 Matt Fleming 提交于 
      There is currently a large divide between kernel development and the
development of EFI boot loaders. The idea behind this patch is to give
the kernel developers full control over the EFI boot process. As
H. Peter Anvin put it,

"The 'kernel carries its own stub' approach been very successful in
dealing with BIOS, and would make a lot of sense to me for EFI as
well."

This patch introduces an EFI boot stub that allows an x86 bzImage to
be loaded and executed by EFI firmware. The bzImage appears to the
firmware as an EFI application. Luckily there are enough free bits
within the bzImage header so that it can masquerade as an EFI
application, thereby coercing the EFI firmware into loading it and
jumping to its entry point. The beauty of this masquerading approach
is that both BIOS and EFI boot loaders can still load and run the same
bzImage, thereby allowing a single kernel image to work in any boot
environment.

The EFI boot stub supports multiple initrds, but they must exist on
the same partition as the bzImage. Command-line arguments for the
kernel can be appended after the bzImage name when run from the EFI
shell, e.g.

Shell> bzImage console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sdb initrd=initrd.img

v7:
 - Fix checkpatch warnings.

v6:

 - Try to allocate initrd memory just below hdr->inird_addr_max.

v5:

 - load_options_size is UTF-16, which needs dividing by 2 to convert
   to the corresponding ASCII size.

v4:

 - Don't read more than image->load_options_size

v3:

 - Fix following warnings when compiling CONFIG_EFI_STUB=n

   arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c: In function ‘main’:
   arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:24: warning: unused variable ‘pe_header’
   arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:15: warning: unused variable ‘file_sz’

 - As reported by Matthew Garrett, some Apple machines have GOPs that
   don't have hardware attached. We need to weed these out by
   searching for ones that handle the PCIIO protocol.

 - Don't allocate memory if no initrds are on cmdline
 - Don't trust image->load_options_size

Maarten Lankhorst noted:
 - Don't strip first argument when booted from efibootmgr
 - Don't allocate too much memory for cmdline
 - Don't update cmdline_size, the kernel considers it read-only
 - Don't accept '\n' for initrd names

v2:

 - File alignment was too large, was 8192 should be 512. Reported by
   Maarten Lankhorst on LKML.
 - Added UGA support for graphics
 - Use VIDEO_TYPE_EFI instead of hard-coded number.
 - Move linelength assignment until after we've assigned depth
 - Dynamically fill out AddressOfEntryPoint in tools/build.c
 - Don't use magic number for GDT/TSS stuff. Requested by Andi Kleen
 - The bzImage may need to be relocated as it may have been loaded at
   a high address address by the firmware. This was required to get my
   macbook booting because the firmware loaded it at 0x7cxxxxxx, which
   triggers this error in decompress_kernel(),

	if (heap > ((-__PAGE_OFFSET-(128<<20)-1) & 0x7fffffff))
		error("Destination address too large");

      x86, boot: determine compressed code offset at compile time · 02a884c0
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      Determine the compressed code offset (from the kernel runtime address)
at compile time.  This allows some minor optimizations in
arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_*.S, but more importantly it makes this
value available to the build process, which will enable a future patch
to export the necessary linear memory footprint into the bzImage
header.

      x86, boot: use appropriate rep string for move and clear · 36d3793c
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      In the pre-decompression code, use the appropriate largest possible
rep movs and rep stos to move code and clear bss, respectively.  For
reverse copy, do note that the initial values are supposed to be the
address of the first (highest) copy datum, not one byte beyond the end
of the buffer.

rep strings are not necessarily the fastest way to perform these
operations on all current processors, but are likely to be in the
future, and perhaps more importantly, we want to encourage the
architecturally right thing to do here.

This also fixes a couple of trivial inefficiencies on 64 bits.

      x86, boot: set up the decompression stack as early as possible · 0a137736
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      Set up the decompression stack as soon as we know where it needs to
go.  That way we have a full-service stack as soon as possible, rather
than relying on the BP_scratch field.

Note that the stack does need to be empty during bss zeroing (or
else the stack needs to be moved out of the bss segment, which is also
an option.)

      x86, boot: straighten out ranges to copy/zero in compressed/head*.S · 5b11f1ce
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      Both on 32 and 64 bits, we copy all the way up to the end of bss,
except that on 64 bits there is a hack to avoid copying on top of the
page tables.  There is no point in copying bss at all, especially
since we are just about to zero it all anyway.

To clean up and unify the handling, we now do:

  - copy from startup_32 to _bss.
  - zero from _bss to _ebss.
  - the _ebss symbol is aligned to an 8-byte boundary.
  - the page tables are moved to a separate section.

Use _bss as the copy endpoint since _edata may be misaligned.
