However, it's not possible to clear EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES from an early param function because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES is set in efi_init() *after* parse_early_param(). This resulted in "noefi" effectively becoming a no-op and no longer providing users with a way to disable EFI, which is bad for those users that have buggy machines.

The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" -- a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand. This has several advantages: 1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way early in the kernel startup). 2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large systems. 3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks. The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X. Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to __phys_addr()/__pa()." * 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (105 commits) x86, mm: Move reserving low memory later in initialization x86, doc: Clarify the use of asm("%edx") in uaccess.h x86, mm: Redesign get_user with a __builtin_choose_expr hack x86: Be consistent with data size in getuser.S x86, mm: Use a bitfield to mask nuisance get_user() warnings x86/kvm: Fix compile warning in kvm_register_steal_time() x86-32: Add support for 64bit get_user() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to alloc_remap() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to resume_map_numa_kva() x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping code x86/numa: Use __pa_nodebug() instead x86: Don't panic if can not alloc buffer for swiotlb mm: Add alloc_bootmem_low_pages_nopanic() x86, 64bit, mm: hibernate use generic mapping_init x86, 64bit, mm: Mark data/bss/brk to nx x86: Merge early kernel reserve for 32bit and 64bit x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation x86, kdump: Remove crashkernel range find limit for 64bit memblock: Add memblock_mem_size() x86, boot: Not need to check setup_header version for setup_data ...

* | | efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilitiesMatt Fleming2013-01-30
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 bacef661acdb ("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 f026cfa82f62. 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 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.

* efi: Fix the ACPI BGRT driver for images located in EFI boot services memoryJosh Triplett2012-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ACPI BGRT driver accesses the BIOS logo image when it initializes. However, ACPI 5.0 (which introduces the BGRT) recommends putting the logo image in EFI boot services memory, so that the OS can reclaim that memory. Production systems follow this recommendation, breaking the ACPI BGRT driver. Move the bulk of the BGRT code to run during a new EFI late initialization phase, which occurs after switching EFI to virtual mode, and after initializing ACPI, but before freeing boot services memory. Copy the BIOS logo image to kernel memory at that point, and make it accessible to the BGRT driver. Rework the existing ACPI BGRT driver to act as a simple wrapper exposing that image (and the properties from the BGRT) via sysfs.

* efi: Add a function to look up existing IO memory mappingsJosh Triplett2012-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The EFI initialization creates virtual mappings for EFI boot services memory, so if a driver wants to access EFI boot services memory, it cannot call ioremap itself; doing so will trip the WARN about mapping RAM twice. Thus, a driver accessing EFI boot services memory must do so via the existing mapping already created during EFI intiialization. Since the EFI code already maintains a memory map for that memory, add a function efi_lookup_mapped_addr to look up mappings in that memory map.

* x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clockJan Beulich2012-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* x86, efi: Allow basic init with mixed 32/64-bit efi/kernelOlof Johansson2012-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally the kernel has refused to setup EFI at all if there's been a mismatch in 32/64-bit mode between EFI and the kernel. On some platforms that boot natively through EFI (Chrome OS being one), we still need to get at least some of the static data such as memory configuration out of EFI. Runtime services aren't as critical, and it's a significant amount of work to implement switching between the operating modes to call between kernel and firmware for thise cases. So I'm ignoring it for now. v5: * Fixed some printk strings based on feedback * Renamed 32/64-bit specific types to not have _ prefix * Fixed bug in printout of efi runtime disablement v4: * Some of the earlier cleanup was accidentally reverted by this patch, fixed. * Reworded some messages to not have to line wrap printk strings v3: * Reorganized to a series of patches to make it easier to review, and do some of the cleanups I had left out before. v2: * Added graceful error handling for 32-bit kernel that gets passed EFI data above 4GB. * Removed some warnings that were missed in first version.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Testing suggests that at least some Lenovos and some Intels will fail to reboot via EFI, attempting to jump to an unmapped physical address. In the long run we could handle this by providing a page table with a 1:1 mapping of physical addresses, but for now it's probably just easier to assume that ACPI or legacy methods will be present and reboot via those.

* / x86, efi: Do not reserve boot services regions within reserved areasMaarten Lankhorst2011-06-18
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 916f676f8dc started reserving boot service code since some systems require you to keep that code around until SetVirtualAddressMap is called. However, in some cases those areas will overlap with reserved regions. The proper medium-term fix is to fix the bootloader to prevent the conflicts from occurring by moving the kernel to a better position, but the kernel should check for this possibility, and only reserve regions which can be reserved.

* x86, efi: Retain boot service code until after switching to virtual modeMatthew Garrett2011-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UEFI stands for "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface", where "Firmware" is an ancient African word meaning "Why do something right when you can do it so wrong that children will weep and brave adults will cower before you", and "UEI" is Celtic for "We missed DOS so we burned it into your ROMs". The UEFI specification provides for runtime services (ie, another way for the operating system to be forced to depend on the firmware) and we rely on these for certain trivial tasks such as setting up the bootloader. But some hardware fails to work if we attempt to use these runtime services from physical mode, and so we have to switch into virtual mode. So far so dreadful. The specification makes it clear that the operating system is free to do whatever it wants with boot services code after ExitBootServices() has been called. SetVirtualAddressMap() can't be called until ExitBootServices() has been. So, obviously, a whole bunch of EFI implementations call into boot services code when we do that. Since we've been charmingly naive and trusted that the specification may be somehow relevant to the real world, we've already stuffed a picture of a penguin or something in that address space. And just to make things more entertaining, we've also marked it non-executable. This patch allocates the boot services regions during EFI init and makes sure that they're executable. Then, after SetVirtualAddressMap(), it discards them and everyone lives happily ever after. Except for the ones who have to work on EFI, who live sad lives haunted by the knowledge that someone's eventually going to write yet another firmware specification.

* x86, efi: Pass a minimal map to SetVirtualAddressMap()Matthew Garrett2011-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Experimentation with various EFI implementations has shown that functions outside runtime services will still update their pointers if SetVirtualAddressMap() is called with memory descriptors outside the runtime area. This is obviously insane, and therefore is unsurprising. Evidence from instrumenting another EFI implementation suggests that it only passes the set of descriptors covering runtime regions, so let's avoid any problems by doing the same. Runtime descriptors are copied to a separate memory map, and only that map is passed back to the firmware.

* x86, efi: Merge contiguous memory regions of the same type and attributeMatthew Garrett2011-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some firmware implementations assume that physically contiguous regions will be contiguous in virtual address space. This assumption is, obviously, entirely unjustifiable. Said firmware implementations lack the good grace to handle their failings in a measured and reasonable manner, instead tending to shit all over address space and oopsing the kernel. In an ideal universe these firmware implementations would simultaneously catch fire and cease to be a problem, but since some of them are present in attractively thin and shiny metal devices vanity wins out and some poor developer spends an extended period of time surrounded by a growing array of empty bottles until the underlying reason becomes apparent. Said developer presents this patch, which simply merges adjacent regions if they happen to be contiguous and have the same EFI memory type and caching attributes.
