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 4bf7111f5016 ("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.

If we're executing the 32-bit efi_char16_printk() code path (i.e.
running on top of 32-bit firmware) we know that efi_early->text_output
will be a 32-bit value, even though ->text_output has type u64.
Unfortunately, we currently pass ->text_output directly to
efi_early->call() so for CONFIG_X86_32 the compiler will push a 64-bit
value onto the stack, causing the other parameters to be misaligned.
The way we handle this in the rest of the EFI boot stub is to pass
pointers as arguments to efi_early->call(), which automatically do the
right thing (pointers are 32-bit on CONFIG_X86_32, and we simply ignore
the upper 32-bits of the argument register if running in 64-bit mode
with 32-bit firmware).
This fixes a corruption bug when printing strings from the 32-bit EFI
boot stub.

A number of people are reporting seeing the "setup_efi_pci() failed!"
error message in what used to be a quiet boot,
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81891
The message isn't all that helpful because setup_efi_pci() can return a
non-success error code for a variety of reasons, not all of them fatal.
Let's drop the return code from setup_efi_pci*() altogether, since
there's no way to process it in any meaningful way outside of the inner
__setup_efi_pci*() functions.

This reverts commit f23cf8bd5c1f ("efi/x86: efistub: Move shared
dependencies to <asm/efi.h>") as well as the x86 parts of commit
f4f75ad5741f ("efi: efistub: Convert into static library").
The road leading to these two reverts is long and winding.
The above two commits were merged during the v3.17 merge window and
turned the common EFI boot stub code into a static library. This
necessitated making some symbols global in the x86 boot stub which
introduced new entries into the early boot GOT.
The problem was that we weren't fixing up the newly created GOT entries
before invoking the EFI boot stub, which sometimes resulted in hangs or
resets. This failure was reported by Maarten on his Macbook pro.
The proposed fix was commit 9cb0e394234d ("x86/efi: Fixup GOT in all
boot code paths"). However, that caused issues for Linus when booting
his Sony Vaio Pro 11. It was subsequently reverted in commit
f3670394c29f.
So that leaves us back with Maarten's Macbook pro not booting.
At this stage in the release cycle the least risky option is to revert
the x86 EFI boot stub to the pre-merge window code structure where we
explicitly #include efi-stub-helper.c instead of linking with the static
library. The arm64 code remains unaffected.
We can take another swing at the x86 parts for v3.18.

I believe the REQUIRED_MASK aproach was taken so that it was
easier to consult in assembly (arch/x86/kernel/verify_cpu.S).
DISABLED_MASK does not have the same restriction, but I
implemented it the same way for consistency.
We have a REQUIRED_MASK... which does two things:
1. Keeps a list of cpuid bits to check in very early boot and
refuse to boot if those are not present.
2. Consulted during cpu_has() checks, which allows us to
optimize out things at compile-time. In other words, if we
*KNOW* we will not boot with the feature off, then we can
safely assume that it will be present forever.
But, we don't have a similar mechanism for CPU features which
may be present but that we know we will not use. We simply
use our existing mechanisms to repeatedly check the status of
the bit at runtime (well, the alternatives patching helps here
but it does not provide compile-time optimization).
Adding a feature to disabled-features.h allows the bit to be
checked via a new macro: cpu_feature_enabled(). Note that
for features in DISABLED_MASK, checks with this macro have
all of the benefits of an #ifdef. Before, we would have done
this in a header:
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MPX
#define cpu_has_mpx cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_MPX)
#else
#define cpu_has_mpx 0
#endif
and this in the code:
if (cpu_has_mpx)
do_some_mpx_thing();
Now, just add your feature to DISABLED_MASK and you can do this
everywhere, and get the same benefits you would have from
#ifdefs:
if (cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_MPX))
do_some_mpx_thing();
We need a new function and *not* a modification to cpu_has()
because there are cases where we actually need to check the CPU
itself, despite what features the kernel supports. The best
example of this is a hypervisor which has no control over what
features its guests are using and where the guest does not depend
on the host for support.

Maarten reported that his Macbook pro 8.2 stopped booting after commit
f23cf8bd5c1f49 ("efi/x86: efistub: Move shared dependencies to
<asm/efi.h>"), the main feature of which is changing the visibility of
symbol 'efi_early' from local to global.
By making 'efi_early' global we end up requiring an entry in the Global
Offset Table. Unfortunately, while we do include code to fixup GOT
entries in the early boot code, it's only called after we've executed
the EFI boot stub.
What this amounts to is that references to 'efi_early' in the EFI boot
stub don't point to the correct place.
Since we've got multiple boot entry points we need to be prepared to
fixup the GOT in multiple places, while ensuring that we never do it
more than once, otherwise the GOT entries will still point to the wrong
place.

Mantas found that after commit 4bf7111f5016 ("x86/efi: Support initrd
loaded above 4G"), the kernel freezes at the earliest possible moment
when trying to boot via UEFI on Asus laptop.
Revert to old way to load initrd under 4G on first try, second try will
use above 4G buffer when initrd is too big and does not fit under 4G.
[ The cause of the freeze appears to be a firmware bug when reading
file data into buffers above 4GB, though the exact reason is unknown.
Mantas reports that the hang can be avoid if the file size is a
multiple of 512 bytes, but I've seen some ASUS firmware simply
corrupting the file data rather than freezing.
Laszlo fixed an issue in the upstream EDK2 DiskIO code in Aug 2013
which may possibly be related, commit 4e39b75e ("MdeModulePkg/DiskIoDxe:
fix source/destination pointer of overrun transfer").
Whatever the cause, it's unlikely that a fix will be forthcoming
from the vendor, hence the workaround - Matt ]

The table mapping CPUID bits to human-readable strings takes up a
non-trivial amount of space, and only exists to support /proc/cpuinfo
and a couple of kernel messages. Since programs depend on the format of
/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.
In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.

The EFI boot stub goes to great pains to relocate the kernel image to
an appropriately aligned address, as indicated by the ->kernel_alignment
field in the bzImage header. However, for the PE stub entry case, we
can request that the EFI PE/COFF loader do the work for us.
Fix by exposing the desired alignment via the SectionAlignment field
in the PE/COFF headers. Despite its name, this field provides an
overall alignment requirement for the loaded file. (Naturally, the
FileAlignment field describes the alignment for individual sections.)
There is no way in the PE/COFF headers to express the concept of
min_alignment; we therefore do not expose the minimum (as opposed to
preferred) alignment.

This patch changes both x86 and arm64 efistub implementations
from #including shared .c files under drivers/firmware/efi to
building shared code as a static library.
The x86 code uses a stub built into the boot executable which
uncompresses the kernel at boot time. In this case, the library is
linked into the decompressor.
In the arm64 case, the stub is part of the kernel proper so the library
is linked into the kernel proper as well.

The PE/COFF headers currently describe only the initialised-data
portions of the image, and result in no space being allocated for the
uninitialised-data portions. Consequently, the EFI boot stub will end
up overwriting unexpected areas of memory, with unpredictable results.
Fix by including a .bss section in the PE/COFF headers (functionally
equivalent to the init_size field in the bzImage header).

In order to move from the #include "../../../xxxxx.c" anti-pattern used
by both the x86 and arm64 versions of the stub to a static library
linked into either the kernel proper (arm64) or a separate boot
executable (x86), there is some prepatory work required.
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

commit 7d453eee36ae ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a
regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant
(incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit
message,
"The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits."
This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the
kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary.
But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to
always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of
the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36ae
effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely.
Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality.

x86, boot: Do not include boot.h in string.c
|

Given the fact that we removed inclusion of boot.h from boot/string.c
does not look like we need misc.h inclusion in compressed/string.c. So
remove it.
misc.h was also pulling in string_32.h which in turn had macros for
memcmp and memcpy. So we don't need to #undef memcmp and memcpy anymore.

string.c does not require whole of boot.h. Just inclusion of linux/types.h
and ctypes.h seems to be sufficient.
Keep list of stuff being included in string.c to bare minimal so that
string.c can be included in other places easily.
For example, Currently boot/compressed/string.c includes boot/string.c
but looks like it does not want boot/boot.h. Hence there is a define
in boot/compressed/misc.h "define BOOT_BOOT_H" which prevents inclusion
of boot.h in compressed/string.c. And compressed/string.c is forced to
include misc.h just for that reason.
So by removing inclusion of boot.h, we can also get rid of inclusion of
misch.h in compressed/misc.c.
This also enables including of boot/string.c in purgatory/ code relatively
easily.

arch/x86/crypto/sha1_avx2_x86_64_asm.S introduced _end as a local
symbol, which broke the build under certain circumstances. Although
the wisdom of _end as a local symbol can definitely be questioned, the
build should not break for that reason.
Thus, filter the output of nm to only get global symbols of
appropriate type.

We really only need one phys and one virt function call, and then only
one assembly function to make firmware calls.
Since we are not using the C type system anyway, we're not really losing
much by deleting the macros apart from no longer having a check that
we are passing the correct number of parameters. The lack of duplicated
code seems like a worthwhile trade-off.

Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
"This is a collection of minor fixes for x86, plus the IRET information
leak fix (forbid the use of 16-bit segments in 64-bit mode)"
NOTE! We may have to relax the "forbid the use of 16-bit segments in
64-bit mode" part, since there may be people who still run and depend on
16-bit Windows binaries under Wine.
But I'm taking this in the current unconditional form for now to see who
(if anybody) screams bloody murder. Maybe nobody cares. And maybe
we'll have to update it with some kind of runtime enablement (like our
vm.mmap_min_addr tunable that people who run dosemu/qemu/wine already
need to tweak).

Pull EFI fixes from Matt Fleming:
"* Fix EFI boot regression introduced during the merge window where the
firmware was reading random values from the stack because we were
passing a pointer to the wrong object type.
* Kernel corruption has been reported when booting with the EFI boot
stub which was tracked down to setting a bogus value for
bp->hdr.code32_start, resulting in corruption during relocation.
* Olivier Martin reported that the wrong file handles were being passed
to efi_file_(read|close), which works for x86 by luck due to the way
that the FAT driver is implemented, but doesn't work on ARM."

We're currently passing the file handle for the root file system to
efi_file_read() and efi_file_close(), instead of the file handle for the
file we wish to read/close.
While this has worked up until now, it seems that it has only been by
pure luck. Olivier explains,
"The issue is the UEFI Fat driver might return the same function for
'fh->read()' and 'h->read()'. While in our case it does not work with
a different implementation of EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL. In our
case, we return a different pointer when reading a directory and
reading a file."
Fixing this actually clears up the two functions because we can drop one
of the arguments, and instead only pass a file 'handle' argument.

code32_start should point at the start of the protected mode code, and
*not* at the beginning of the bzImage. This is much easier to do in
assembly so document that callers of make_boot_params() need to fill out
code32_start.
The fallout from this bug is that we would end up relocating the image
but copying the image at some offset, resulting in what appeared to be
memory corruption.

commit 54b52d872680 ("x86/efi: Build our own EFI services pointer
table") introduced a regression because the 64-bit file_size()
implementation passed a pointer to a 32-bit data object, instead of a
pointer to a 64-bit object.
Because the firmware treats the object as 64-bits regardless it was
reading random values from the stack for the upper 32-bits.
This resulted in people being unable to boot their machines, after
seeing the following error messages,
Failed to get file info size
Failed to alloc highmem for files

Pull x86 boot changes from Peter Anvin:
"This patchset is a set of cleanups aiming at librarize some of the
common code from the boot environments. We currently have three
different "little environments" (boot, boot/compressed, and
realmode/rm) in x86, and we are likely to soon get a fourth one
(kexec/purgatory, which will have to be integrated in the kernel to
support secure kexec). This is primarily a cleanup in the
anticipation of the latter.
While Vivek implemented this, he ran into some bugs, in particular the
memcmp implementation for when gcc punts from using the builtin would
have a misnamed symbol, causing compilation errors if we were ever
unlucky enough that gcc didn't want to inline the test"

The ARM EFI boot stub doesn't need to care about the efi_early
infrastructure that x86 requires in order to do mixed mode thunking. So
wrap everything up in an efi_call_early() macro.
This allows x86 to do the necessary indirection jumps to call whatever
firmware interface is necessary (native or mixed mode), but also allows
the ARM folks to mask the fact that they don't support relocation in the
boot stub and need to pass 'sys_table_arg' to every function.

Pentium M
Many Pentium M systems disable PAE but may have a functionally usable PAE
implementation. This adds the "forcepae" parameter which bypasses the boot
check for PAE, and sets the CPU as being PAE capable. Using this parameter
will taint the kernel with TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC.

Currently compressed/misc.c needs to link against memset(). I think one of
the reasons of this need is inclusion of various header files which define
static inline functions and use memset() inside these. For example,
include/linux/bitmap.h
I think trying to include "../string.h" and using builtin version of memset
does not work because by the time "#define memset" shows up, it is too
late. Some other header file has already used memset() and expects to
find a definition during link phase.
Currently we have a C definitoin of memset() in misc.c. Move it to
compressed/string.c so that others can use it if need be.
