efi/esrt: Fix reference count leak in esre_create_sysfs_entry.

2020-06-30T00:08:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4ddf4739be6e375116c375f0a68bf3893ffcee21 ] kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Previous commit "b8eb718348b8" fixed a similar problem.

efi/esrt: Cleanup bad memory map log messages

2017-12-20T09:04:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 822f5845f710e57d7e2df1fd1ee00d6e19d334fe ] The Intel Compute Stick STCK1A8LFC and Weibu F3C platforms both log 2 error messages during boot: efi: requested map not found. esrt: ESRT header is not in the memory map. Searching the web, this seems to affect many other platforms too. Since these messages are logged as errors, they appear on-screen during the boot process even when using the "quiet" boot parameter used by distros. Demote the ESRT error to a warning so that it does not appear on-screen, and delete the error logging from efi_mem_desc_lookup; both callsites of that function log more specific messages upon failure. Out of curiosity I looked closer at the Weibu F3C. There is no entry in the UEFI-provided memory map which corresponds to the ESRT pointer, but hacking the code to map it anyway, the ESRT does appear to be valid with 2 entries.

efi: Move some sysfs files to be read-only by root

2017-12-16T09:33:48+00:00

commit af97a77bc01ce49a466f9d4c0125479e2e2230b6 upstream. Thanks to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script, it was found that some EFI values should not be readable by non-root users. So make them root-only, and to do that, add a __ATTR_RO_MODE() macro to make this easier, and use it in other places at the same time.

drivers/firmware: Make efi/esrt.c driver explicitly non-modular

2015-10-12T13:20:05+00:00

The Kconfig for this driver is currently hidden with: config EFI_ESRT bool ...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone. Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only. Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit. We leave some tags like MODULE_AUTHOR for documentation purposes. We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that. Cc: Peter Jones Cc: linux-efi@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

efi/esrt: Fix some compiler warnings

2015-04-30T21:15:06+00:00

Apparently I missed some compiler warnings on 32-bit platforms, where phys_addr_t isn't the same size as void * and I casted it to make printk work. Obviously I should have thought "I'm printing some random type, instead of typecasting I should check Documentation/printk-formats.txt and see how to do it." o/~ The More You Know ☆彡 o/~ This patch also fixes one other warning about an uninitialized variable some compiler versions seem to see. You can't actually hit the code path where it would be uninitialized, because there's a prior test that would error out, but gcc hasn't figured that out. Anyway, it now has a test and returns the error at both places. Signed-off-by: Peter Jones Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

efi: Add esrt support

2015-04-30T21:15:04+00:00

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 .
