Commit dd78b97367bd575918204cc89107c1479d3fc1a7 ("x86, boot: Move CPU
flags out of cpucheck") introduced ambiguous inline asm in the
has_eflag() function. In 16-bit mode want the instruction to be
'pushfl', but we just say 'pushf' and hope the compiler does what we
wanted.
When building with 'clang -m16', it won't, because clang doesn't use
the horrid '.code16gcc' hack that even 'gcc -m16' uses internally.
Say what we mean and don't make the compiler make assumptions.
[ hpa: ideally we would be able to use the gcc %zN construct here, but
that is broken for 64-bit integers in gcc < 4.5.
The code with plain "pushf/popf" is fine for 32- or 64-bit mode, but
not for 16-bit mode; in 16-bit mode those are 16-bit instructions in
.code16 mode, and 32-bit instructions in .code16gcc mode. ]

It looks like GCC will always emit an object that is marked with an
explicit section, although the documentation doesn't say that and we
possibly shouldn't be relying on it.
Clang does *not* do so, so add __attribute__((used)) to make sure.

This reverts commit 28b48688 ("x86, boot: use .code16gcc instead
of .code16").
Versions of binutils older than 2.16 are already not working, so this
workaround is no longer necessary either. At the same time, some of
the transformations that .code16gcc does can be *extremely*
counterintuitive to a human programmer.

Old kexec-tools can not load new kernels. The reason is kexec-tools does
not fill efi_info in x86 setup header previously, thus EFI failed to
initialize. In new kexec-tools it will by default to fill efi_info and
pass other EFI required infomation to 2nd kernel so kexec kernel EFI
initialization can succeed finally.
To prevent from breaking userspace, add a new xloadflags bit so
kexec-tools can check the flag and switch to old logic.

In checkin
5551a34e5aea x86-64, build: Always pass in -mno-sse
we unconditionally added -mno-sse to the main build, to keep newer
compilers from generating SSE instructions from autovectorization.
However, this did not extend to the special environments
(arch/x86/boot, arch/x86/boot/compressed, and arch/x86/realmode/rm).
Add -mno-sse to the compiler command line for these environments, and
add -mno-mmx to all the environments as well, as we don't want a
compiler to generate MMX code either.
This patch also removes a $(cc-option) call for -m32, since we have
long since stopped supporting compilers too old for the -m32 option,
and in fact hardcode it in other places in the Makefiles.

If we don't have RDRAND (in which case nothing else *should* matter),
most sources have a highly biased entropy distribution. Use a
circular multiply to diffuse the entropic bits. A circular multiply
is a good operation for this: it is cheap on standard hardware and
because it is symmetric (unlike an ordinary multiply) it doesn't
introduce its own bias.

Depending on availability, mix the RDRAND and RDTSC entropy together with
XOR. Only when neither is available should the i8254 be used. Update
the Kconfig documentation to reflect this. Additionally, since bits
used for entropy is masked elsewhere, drop the needless masking in
the get_random_long(). Similarly, use the entire TSC, not just the low
32 bits.
Finally, to improve the starting entropy, do a simple hashing of a
build-time versions string and the boot-time boot_params structure for
some additional level of unpredictability.

When a function is used in more than one file it may not be possible
to immediately tell from context what the intended meaning is. As
such, it is more important that the naming be self-evident. Thus,
change get_flags() to get_cpuflags().
For consistency, change check_flags() to check_cpuflags() even though
it is only used in cpucheck.c.

This allows decompress_kernel to return a new location for the kernel to
be relocated to. Additionally, enforces CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as the
minimum relocation position when building with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.
With CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE set, the choose_kernel_location routine
will select a new location to decompress the kernel, though here it is
presently a no-op. The kernel command line option "nokaslr" is introduced
to bypass these routines.

The problem in efi_main was that the idt was cleared before the
interrupts were disabled.
The UEFI spec states that interrupts aren't used so this shouldn't be
too much of a problem. Peripherals however don't necessarily know about
this and thus might cause interrupts to happen anyway. Even if
ExitBootServices() has been called.
This means there is a risk of an interrupt being triggered while the IDT
register is nullified and the interrupt bit hasn't been cleared,
allowing for a triple fault.
This patch disables the interrupt flag, while leaving the existing IDT
in place. The CPU won't care about the IDT at all as long as the
interrupt bit is off, so it's safe to leave it in place as nothing will
ever happen to it.

This patch fixes a problem with EFI memory maps larger than 128 entries
when booting using the EFI stub, which results in overflowing e820_map
in boot_params and an eventual halt when checking the map size in
sanitize_e820_map().
If the number of map entries is greater than what can fit in e820_map,
add the extra entries to the setup_data list using type SETUP_E820_EXT.
These extra entries are then picked up when the setup_data list is
parsed in parse_e820_ext().

When building on x86, the final image building step always emits stats
to stderr, even though this information is neither a warning nor an error:
BUILD arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Setup is 16188 bytes (padded to 16384 bytes).
System is 6368 kB
CRC cbe50c61
Validating automated builds would be cleaner if stderr did not have to
filter out these lines. Instead, change how tools/build is called, and
make the zoffset header unconditional, and write to a specified file
instead of to stdout, which can then be used for statistics, leaving
stderr open for legitimate warnings and errors, like the output from
die().

Moves the relocation handling into C, after decompression. This requires
that the decompressed size is passed to the decompression routine as
well so that relocations can be found. Only kernels that need relocation
support will use the code (currently just x86_32), but this is laying
the ground work for 64-bit using it in support of KASLR.

* 'x86-efi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86, efi: retry ExitBootServices() on failure
efi: Convert runtime services function ptrs
UEFI: Don't pass boot services regions to SetVirtualAddressMap()

During build we open a file, read that but do not close it. Fix
that by sticking fclose() at the right place.

ExitBootServices is absolutely supposed to return a failure if any
ExitBootServices event handler changes the memory map. Basically the
get_map loop should run again if ExitBootServices returns an error the
first time. I would say it would be fair that if ExitBootServices gives
an error the second time then Linux would be fine in returning control
back to BIOS.
The second change is the following line:
again:
size += sizeof(*mem_map) * 2;
Originally you were incrementing it by the size of one memory map entry.
The issue here is all related to the low_alloc routine you are using.
In this routine you are making allocations to get the memory map itself.
Doing this allocation or allocations can affect the memory map by more
than one record.

This patch reworks the UEFI anti-bricking code, including an effective
reversion of cc5a080c and 31ff2f20. It turns out that calling
QueryVariableInfo() from boot services results in some firmware
implementations jumping to physical addresses even after entering virtual
mode, so until we have 1:1 mappings for UEFI runtime space this isn't
going to work so well.
Reverting these gets us back to the situation where we'd refuse to create
variables on some systems because they classify deleted variables as "used"
until the firmware triggers a garbage collection run, which they won't do
until they reach a lower threshold. This results in it being impossible to
install a bootloader, which is unhelpful.
Feedback from Samsung indicates that the firmware doesn't need more than
5KB of storage space for its own purposes, so that seems like a reasonable
threshold. However, there's still no guarantee that a platform will attempt
garbage collection merely because it drops below this threshold. It seems
that this is often only triggered if an attempt to write generates a
genuine EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES error. We can force that by attempting to
create a variable larger than the remaining space. This should fail, but if
it somehow succeeds we can then immediately delete it.
I've tested this on the UEFI machines I have available, but I don't have
a Samsung and so can't verify that it avoids the bricking problem.

arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.S includes <asm/pgtable_types.h> and
<asm/page_types.h> but it doesn't look like it needs them. So remove them.
