[ Upstream commit 220dd7699c46d5940115bd797b01b2ab047c87b8 ]

Currently, kernel fails to boot on some HyperV VMs when using EFI.
And it's a potential issue on all x86 platforms.

It's caused by broken kernel relocation on EFI systems, when below three
conditions are met:

1. Kernel image is not loaded to the default address (LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR)
   by the loader.
2. There isn't enough room to contain the kernel, starting from the
   default load address (eg. something else occupied part the region).
3. In the memmap provided by EFI firmware, there is a memory region
   starts below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR, and suitable for containing the
   kernel.

EFI stub will perform a kernel relocation when condition 1 is met. But
due to condition 2, EFI stub can't relocate kernel to the preferred
address, so it fallback to ask EFI firmware to alloc lowest usable memory
region, got the low region mentioned in condition 3, and relocated
kernel there.

It's incorrect to relocate the kernel below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR. This
is the lowest acceptable kernel relocation address.

The first thing goes wrong is in arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.S.
Kernel decompression will force use LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR as the output
address if kernel is located below it. Then the relocation before
decompression, which move kernel to the end of the decompression buffer,
will overwrite other memory region, as there is no enough memory there.

To fix it, just don't let EFI stub relocate the kernel to any address
lower than lowest acceptable address.

[ ardb: introduce efi_low_alloc_above() to reduce the scope of the change ]

<title>efi: libstub/arm: Account for firmware reserved memory at the base of RAM</title>

[ Upstream commit 41cd96fa149b29684ebd38759fefb07f9c7d5276 ]

The EFI stubloader for ARM starts out by allocating a 32 MB window
at the base of RAM, in order to ensure that the decompressor (which
blindly copies the uncompressed kernel into that window) does not
overwrite other allocations that are made while running in the context
of the EFI firmware.

In some cases, (e.g., U-Boot running on the Raspberry Pi 2), this is
causing boot failures because this initial allocation conflicts with
a page of reserved memory at the base of RAM that contains the SMP spin
tables and other pieces of firmware data and which was put there by
the bootloader under the assumption that the TEXT_OFFSET window right
below the kernel is only used partially during early boot, and will be
left alone once the memory reservations are processed and taken into
account.

So let's permit reserved memory regions to exist in the region starting
at the base of RAM, and ending at TEXT_OFFSET - 5 * PAGE_SIZE, which is
the window below the kernel that is not touched by the early boot code.

<title>tpm: Don't duplicate events from the final event log in the TCG2 log</title>

<id>urn:sha1:166a2809d65b282272c474835ec22c882a39ca1b</id>
<content type='text'>
After the first call to GetEventLog() on UEFI systems using the TCG2
crypto agile log format, any further log events (other than those
triggered by ExitBootServices()) will be logged in both the main log and
also in the Final Events Log. While the kernel only calls GetEventLog()
immediately before ExitBootServices(), we can't control whether earlier
parts of the boot process have done so. This will result in log entries
that exist in both logs, and so the current approach of simply appending
the Final Event Log to the main log will result in events being
duplicated.

We can avoid this problem by looking at the size of the Final Event Log
just before we call ExitBootServices() and exporting this to the main
kernel. The kernel can then skip over all events that occured before
ExitBootServices() and only append events that were not also logged to
the main log.

We want to grab a pointer to the TPM final events table, so abstract out
the existing code for finding an FDT table and make it generic.

<content type='text'>
Right now we only attempt to obtain the SHA1-only event log. The
protocol also supports a crypto agile log format, which contains digests
for all algorithms in use. Attempt to obtain this first, and fall back
to obtaining the older format if the system doesn't support it. This is
lightly complicated by the event sizes being variable (as we don't know
in advance which algorithms are in use), and the interface giving us
back a pointer to the start of the final entry rather than a pointer to
the end of the log - as a result, we need to parse the final entry to
figure out its length in order to know how much data to copy up to the
OS.

In preparation for arm64 supporting ftrace built on other compiler
options, let's have Makefiles remove the $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) flags,
whatever these maybe, rather than assuming '-pg'.

While at it, fix arm32 as well. There should be no functional change as

Commit f922c4abdf764 ("module: allow symbol exports to be disabled")
introduced a way to inhibit generation of kcrctab/ksymtab sections
when building ordinary kernel code to be used in a different execution
context (decompressor, EFI stub, etc)

That means we no longer have to strip those sections explicitly when
building the EFI libstub objects, so drop this from the Makefile.
