* efi/libstub/x86: Avoid thunking for native firmware callsArd Biesheuvel2019-12-251-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We use special wrapper routines to invoke firmware services in the native case as well as the mixed mode case. For mixed mode, the need is obvious, but for the native cases, we can simply rely on the compiler to generate the indirect call, given that GCC now has support for the MS calling convention (and has had it for quite some time now). Note that on i386, the decompressor and the EFI stub are not built with -mregparm=3 like the rest of the i386 kernel, so we can safely allow the compiler to emit the indirect calls here as well. So drop all the wrappers and indirection, and switch to either native calls, or direct calls into the thunk routine for mixed mode.

* x86/efi: Avoid triple faults during EFI mixed mode callsMatt Fleming2015-02-131-25/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Andy pointed out that if an NMI or MCE is received while we're in the middle of an EFI mixed mode call a triple fault will occur. This can happen, for example, when issuing an EFI mixed mode call while running perf. The reason for the triple fault is that we execute the mixed mode call in 32-bit mode with paging disabled but with 64-bit kernel IDT handlers installed throughout the call. At Andy's suggestion, stop playing the games we currently do at runtime, such as disabling paging and installing a 32-bit GDT for __KERNEL_CS. We can simply switch to the __KERNEL32_CS descriptor before invoking firmware services, and run in compatibility mode. This way, if an NMI/MCE does occur the kernel IDT handler will execute correctly, since it'll jump to __KERNEL_CS automatically. However, this change is only possible post-ExitBootServices(). Before then the firmware "owns" the machine and expects for its 32-bit IDT handlers to be left intact to service interrupts, etc. So, we now need to distinguish between early boot and runtime invocations of EFI services. During early boot, we need to restore the GDT that the firmware expects to be present. We can only jump to the __KERNEL32_CS code segment for mixed mode calls after ExitBootServices() has been invoked. A liberal sprinkling of comments in the thunking code should make the differences in early and late environments more apparent.

* x86/efi: Add early thunk code to go from 64-bit to 32-bitMatt Fleming2014-03-041-0/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement the transition code to go from IA32e mode to protected mode in the EFI boot stub. This is required to use 32-bit EFI services from a 64-bit kernel. Since EFI boot stub is executed in an identity-mapped region, there's not much we need to do before invoking the 32-bit EFI boot services. However, we do reload the firmware's global descriptor table (efi32_boot_gdt) in case things like timer events are still running in the firmware. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
* x86, efi: EFI boot stub supportMatt Fleming2011-12-121-0/+1
There is currently a large divide between kernel development and the development of EFI boot loaders. The idea behind this patch is to give the kernel developers full control over the EFI boot process. As H. Peter Anvin put it, "The 'kernel carries its own stub' approach been very successful in dealing with BIOS, and would make a lot of sense to me for EFI as well." This patch introduces an EFI boot stub that allows an x86 bzImage to be loaded and executed by EFI firmware. The bzImage appears to the firmware as an EFI application. Luckily there are enough free bits within the bzImage header so that it can masquerade as an EFI application, thereby coercing the EFI firmware into loading it and jumping to its entry point. The beauty of this masquerading approach is that both BIOS and EFI boot loaders can still load and run the same bzImage, thereby allowing a single kernel image to work in any boot environment. The EFI boot stub supports multiple initrds, but they must exist on the same partition as the bzImage. Command-line arguments for the kernel can be appended after the bzImage name when run from the EFI shell, e.g. Shell> bzImage console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sdb initrd=initrd.img v7: - Fix checkpatch warnings. v6: - Try to allocate initrd memory just below hdr->inird_addr_max. v5: - load_options_size is UTF-16, which needs dividing by 2 to convert to the corresponding ASCII size. v4: - Don't read more than image->load_options_size v3: - Fix following warnings when compiling CONFIG_EFI_STUB=n arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c: In function ‘main’: arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:24: warning: unused variable ‘pe_header’ arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:15: warning: unused variable ‘file_sz’ - As reported by Matthew Garrett, some Apple machines have GOPs that don't have hardware attached. We need to weed these out by searching for ones that handle the PCIIO protocol. - Don't allocate memory if no initrds are on cmdline - Don't trust image->load_options_size Maarten Lankhorst noted: - Don't strip first argument when booted from efibootmgr - Don't allocate too much memory for cmdline - Don't update cmdline_size, the kernel considers it read-only - Don't accept '\n' for initrd names v2: - File alignment was too large, was 8192 should be 512. Reported by Maarten Lankhorst on LKML. - Added UGA support for graphics - Use VIDEO_TYPE_EFI instead of hard-coded number. - Move linelength assignment until after we've assigned depth - Dynamically fill out AddressOfEntryPoint in tools/build.c - Don't use magic number for GDT/TSS stuff. Requested by Andi Kleen - The bzImage may need to be relocated as it may have been loaded at a high address address by the firmware. This was required to get my macbook booting because the firmware loaded it at 0x7cxxxxxx, which triggers this error in decompress_kernel(), if (heap > ((-__PAGE_OFFSET-(128<<20)-1) & 0x7fffffff)) error("Destination address too large"); Cc: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Tested-by: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1321383097.2657.9.camel@mfleming-mobl1.ger.corp.intel.com Signed-off-by: H.
