The UEFI spec v2.5 introduces a new memory attribute EFI_MEMORY_RO, which is now the preferred attribute to convey that the nature of the contents of such a region allows it to be mapped read-only (i.e., it contains .text and .rodata only). The specification of the existing EFI_MEMORY_WP attribute has been updated to align more closely with its common use as a cacheability attribute rather than a permission attribute. Add the #define and add the attribute to the memory map dumping routine.

So, I'm told this problem exists in the world: > Subject: Build error in -next due to 'efi: Add esrt support' > > Building ia64:defconfig ... failed > -------------- > Error log: > > drivers/firmware/efi/esrt.c:28:31: fatal error: asm/early_ioremap.h: No such file or directory > I'm not really sure how it's okay that we have things in asm-generic on some platforms but not others - is having it the same everywhere not the whole point of asm-generic? That said, ia64 doesn't have early_ioremap.h . So instead, since it's difficult to imagine new IA64 machines with UEFI 2.5, just don't build this code there. To me this looks like a workaround - doing something like: generic-y += early_ioremap.h in arch/ia64/include/asm/Kbuild would appear to be more correct, but ia64 has its own early_memremap() decl in arch/ia64/include/asm/io.h , and it's a macro. So adding the above /and/ requiring that asm/io.h be included /after/ asm/early_ioremap.h in all cases would fix it, but that's pretty ugly as well. Since I'm not going to spend the rest of my life rectifying ia64 headers vs "generic" headers that aren't generic, it's much simpler to just not build there. Note that I've only actually tried to build this patch on x86_64, but esrt.o still gets built there, and that would seem to demonstrate that the conditional building is working correctly at all the places the code built before. I no longer have any ia64 machines handy to test that the exclusion actually works there.

ACPI 6.0 formalizes e820-type-7 and efi-type-14 as persistent memory. Mark it "reserved" and allow it to be claimed by a persistent memory device driver. This definition is in addition to the Linux kernel's existing type-12 definition that was recently added in support of shipping platforms with NVDIMM support that predate ACPI 6.0 (which now classifies type-12 as OEM reserved). Note, /proc/iomem can be consulted for differentiating legacy "Persistent Memory (legacy)" E820_PRAM vs standard "Persistent Memory" E820_PMEM.

Add sysfs files for the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) under /sys/firmware/efi/esrt and for each EFI System Resource Entry under entries/ as a subdir. The EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) provides a read-only catalog of system components for which the system accepts firmware upgrades via UEFI's "Capsule Update" feature. This module allows userland utilities to evaluate what firmware updates can be applied to this system, and potentially arrange for those updates to occur. The ESRT is described as part of the UEFI specification, in version 2.5 which should be available from http://uefi.org/specifications in early 2015. If you're a member of the UEFI Forum, information about its addition to the standard is available as UEFI Mantis 1090. For some hardware platforms, additional restrictions may be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/jj128256.aspx , and additional documentation may be found at http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/F/5/5F5D16CD-2530-4289-8019-94C6A20BED3C/windows-uefi-firmware-update-platform.docx .

This adds support to the UEFI side for detecting the presence of a SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point. This allows the actual SMBIOS structure table to reside at a physical offset over 4 GB, which cannot be supported by the legacy SMBIOS 32-bit entry point. Since the firmware can legally provide both entry points, store the SMBIOS 3.0 entry point in a separate variable, and let the DMI decoding layer decide which one will be used.

There are some circumstances that call for trying to write an EFI variable in a non-blocking way. One such scenario is when writing pstore data in efi_pstore_write() via the pstore_dump() kdump callback. Now that we have an EFI runtime spinlock we need a way of aborting if there is contention instead of spinning, since when writing pstore data from the kdump callback, the runtime lock may already be held by the CPU that's running the callback if we crashed in the middle of an EFI variable operation. The situation is sufficiently special that a new EFI variable operation is warranted. Introduce ->set_variable_nonblocking() for this use case. It is an optional EFI backend operation, and need only be implemented by those backends that usually acquire locks to serialize access to EFI variables, as is the case for virt_efi_set_variable() where we now grab the EFI runtime spinlock.

At the moment, there are three architectures debug-printing the EFI memory map at initialization: x86, ia64, and arm64. They all use different format strings, plus the EFI memory type and the EFI memory attributes are similarly hard to decode for a human reader. Introduce a helper __init function that formats the memory type and the memory attributes in a unified way, to a user-provided character buffer. The array "memory_type_name" is copied from the arm64 code, temporarily duplicating it. The (otherwise optional) braces around each string literal in the initializer list are dropped in order to match the kernel coding style more closely. The element size is tightened from 32 to 20 bytes (maximum actual string length + 1) so that we can derive the field width from the element size.

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.

This patch does two things. It passes EFI run time mappings to second kernel in bootparams efi_info. Second kernel parse this info and create new mappings in second kernel. That means mappings in first and second kernel will be same. This paves the way to enable EFI in kexec kernel. This patch also prepares and passes EFI setup data through bootparams. This contains bunch of information about various tables and their addresses. These information gathering and passing has been written along the lines of what current kexec-tools is doing to make kexec work with UEFI.

Not only can EfiResetSystem() be used to reboot, it can also be used to power down machines. By and large, this functionality doesn't work very well across the range of EFI machines in the wild, so it should definitely only be used as a last resort. In an ideal world, this wouldn't be needed at all. Unfortunately, we're starting to see machines where EFI is the *only* reliable way to power down, and nothing else, not PCI, not ACPI, works. efi_poweroff_required() should be implemented on a per-architecture basis, since exactly when we should be using EFI runtime services is a platform-specific decision. There's no analogue for reboot because each architecture handles reboot very differently - the x86 code in particular is pretty complex. Patches to enable this for specific classes of hardware will be submitted separately. Tested-by: NMark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

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 Signed-off-by: NArd Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of efi_pstore driver runs mutiple times as below. - In the first read callback, scan efivar_sysfs_list from head and pass a kmsg buffer of a entry to an upper pstore layer. - In the second read callback, rescan efivar_sysfs_list from the entry and pass another kmsg buffer to it. - Repeat the scan and pass until the end of efivar_sysfs_list. In this process, an entry is read across the multiple read function calls. To avoid race between the read and erasion, the whole process above is protected by a spinlock, holding in open() and releasing in close(). At the same time, kmemdup() is called to pass the buffer to pstore filesystem during it. And then, it causes a following lockdep warning. To make the dynamic memory allocation runnable without taking spinlock, holding off a deletion of sysfs entry if it happens while scanning it via efi_pstore, and deleting it after the scan is completed. To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting, to efivar_entry. On the code basis, it seems that all the scanning and deleting logic is not needed because __efivars->lock are not dropped when reading from the EFI variable store. But, the scanning and deleting logic is still needed because an efi-pstore and a pstore filesystem works as follows. In case an entry(A) is found, the pointer is saved to psi->data. And efi_pstore_read() passes the entry(A) to a pstore filesystem by releasing __efivars->lock. And then, the pstore filesystem calls efi_pstore_read() again and the same entry(A), which is saved to psi->data, is used for resuming to scan a sysfs-list. So, to protect the entry(A), the logic is needed.

We map the EFI regions needed for runtime services non-contiguously, with preserved alignment on virtual addresses starting from -4G down for a total max space of 64G. This way, we provide for stable runtime services addresses across kernels so that a kexec'd kernel can still use them. Thus, they're mapped in a separate pagetable so that we don't pollute the kernel namespace. Add an efi= kernel command line parameter for passing miscellaneous options and chicken bits from the command line. While at it, add a chicken bit called "efi=old_map" which can be used as a fallback to the old runtime services mapping method in case there's some b0rkage with a particular EFI implementation (haha, it is hard to hold up the sarcasm here...). Also, add the UEFI RT VA space to Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt. Signed-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

The x86/AMD64 EFI stubs must use a call wrapper to convert between the Linux and EFI ABIs, so void pointers are sufficient. For ARM, the ABIs are compatible, so we can directly invoke the function pointers. The functions that are used by the ARM stub are updated to match the EFI definitions. Also add some EFI types used by EFI functions.

efi_lookup_mapped_addr() is a handy utility for other platforms than x86. Move it from arch/x86 to drivers/firmware. Add memmap pointer to global efi structure, and initialise it on x86. Signed-off-by: NLeif Lindholm <leif.lindholm@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Common to (U)EFI support on all platforms is the global "efi" data structure, and the code that parses the System Table to locate addresses to populate that structure with. This patch adds both of these to the global EFI driver code and removes the local definition of the global "efi" data structure from the x86 and ia64 code. Squashed into one big patch to avoid breaking bisection.

All the virtualized platforms (KVM, lguest and Xen) have persistent wallclocks that have more than one second of precision. read_persistent_wallclock() and update_persistent_wallclock() allow for nanosecond precision but their implementation on x86 with x86_platform.get/set_wallclock() only allows for one second precision. This means guests may see a wallclock time that is off by up to 1 second. Make set_wallclock() and get_wallclock() take a struct timespec parameter (which allows for nanosecond precision) so KVM and Xen guests may start with a more accurate wallclock time and a Xen dom0 can maintain a more accurate wallclock for guests.

Seiji reported getting empty dmesg-* files, because the data was never actually read in efi_pstore_read_func(), and so the memcpy() was copying garbage data. This patch necessitated adding __efivar_entry_get() which is callable between efivar_entry_iter_{begin,end}(). We can also delete __efivar_entry_size() because efi_pstore_read_func() was the only caller.
