efi: Add misc char driver interface to update EFI firmware

2016-04-28T09:34:05+00:00

This patch introduces a kernel module to expose a capsule loader interface (misc char device file note) for users to upload capsule binaries. Example: cat firmware.bin > /dev/efi_capsule_loader Any upload error will be returned while doing "cat" through file operation write() function call.

efi: Add 'capsule' update support

2016-04-28T09:34:03+00:00

The EFI capsule mechanism allows data blobs to be passed to the EFI firmware. A common use case is performing firmware updates. This patch just introduces the main infrastructure for interacting with the firmware, and a driver that allows users to upload capsules will come in a later patch. Once a capsule has been passed to the firmware, the next reboot must be performed using the ResetSystem() EFI runtime service, which may involve overriding the reboot type specified by reboot=. This ensures the reset value returned by QueryCapsuleCapabilities() is used to reset the system, which is required for the capsule to be processed. efi_capsule_pending() is provided for this purpose. At the moment we only allow a single capsule blob to be sent to the firmware despite the fact that UpdateCapsule() takes a 'CapsuleCount' parameter. This simplifies the API and shouldn't result in any downside since it is still possible to send multiple capsules by repeatedly calling UpdateCapsule().

efibc: Add EFI Bootloader Control module

2016-04-28T09:34:02+00:00

This module installs a reboot callback, such that if reboot() is invoked with a string argument NNN, "NNN" is copied to the "LoaderEntryOneShot" EFI variable, to be read by the bootloader. If the string matches one of the boot labels defined in its configuration, the bootloader will boot once to that label. The "LoaderEntryRebootReason" EFI variable is set with the reboot reason: "reboot", "shutdown". The bootloader reads this reboot reason and takes particular action according to its policy. There are reboot implementations that do "reboot ", such as Android's reboot command and Upstart's reboot replacement, which pass the reason as an argument to the reboot syscall. There is no platform-agnostic way how those could be modified to pass the reason to the bootloader, regardless of platform or bootloader.

efi: Implement generic support for the Memory Attributes table

2016-04-28T09:33:54+00:00

This implements shared support for discovering the presence of the Memory Attributes table, and for parsing and validating its contents. The table is validated against the construction rules in the UEFI spec. Since this is a new table, it makes sense to complain if we encounter a table that does not follow those rules. The parsing and validation routine takes a callback that can be specified per architecture, that gets passed each unique validated region, with the virtual address retrieved from the ordinary memory map.

ARM: wire up UEFI init and runtime support

2015-12-13T18:18:30+00:00

This adds support to the kernel proper for booting via UEFI. It shares most of the code with arm64, so this patch mostly just wires it up for use with ARM. Note that this does not include the EFI stub, it is added in a subsequent patch. Tested-by: Ryan Harkin Reviewed-by: Matt Fleming Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

arm64/efi: split off EFI init and runtime code for reuse by 32-bit ARM

2015-12-09T16:57:23+00:00

This splits off the early EFI init and runtime code that - discovers the EFI params and the memory map from the FDT, and installs the memblocks and config tables. - prepares and installs the EFI page tables so that UEFI Runtime Services can be invoked at the virtual address installed by the stub. This will allow it to be reused for 32-bit ARM. Reviewed-by: Matt Fleming Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

arm64: add KASAN support

2015-10-12T16:46:36+00:00

This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer (see Documentation/kasan.txt). 1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. There was no big enough hole for this, so virtual addresses for shadow were stolen from vmalloc area. At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just one physical page (kasan_zero_page). Later, this page reused as readonly zero shadow for some memory that KASan currently don't track (vmalloc). After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are allocated and mapped. Functions like memset/memmove/memcpy do a lot of memory accesses. If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important to catch this. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since these functions are written in assembly. KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants. Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases with '__' prefix in name, so we could call non-instrumented variant if needed. Some files built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c). Original mem* function replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants to disable memory access checks for such files.

efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option

This patch introduces new boot option named "efi_fake_mem". By specifying this parameter, you can add arbitrary attribute to specific memory range. This is useful for debugging of Address Range Mirroring feature.

efi: Work around ia64 build problem with ESRT driver

2015-06-08T09:51:31+00:00

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.
