firmware: dmi_scan: Fix ordering of product_uuid

2015-06-10T17:42:36Z

[ Upstream commit 5c1ac56b51b9d222ab202dec1ac2f4215346129d ] In function dmi_present(), dmi_walk_early() calls dmi_table(), which calls dmi_decode(), which ultimately calls dmi_save_uuid(). This last function makes a decision based on the value of global variable dmi_ver. The problem is that this variable is set right _after_ dmi_walk_early() returns. So dmi_save_uuid() always sees dmi_ver == 0 regardless of the actual version implemented. This causes /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid to always use the old ordering even on systems implementing DMI/SMBIOS 2.6 or later, which should use the new ordering. This is broken since kernel v3.8 for legacy DMI implementations and since kernel v3.10 for SMBIOS 2 implementations. SMBIOS 3 implementations with the 64-bit entry point are not affected. The first breakage does not matter much as in practice legacy DMI implementations are always for versions older than 2.6, which is when the UUID ordering changed. The second breakage is more problematic as it affects the vast majority of x86 systems manufactured since 2009.

efi/libstub: Fix boundary checking in efi_high_alloc()

2015-03-24T01:02:50Z

commit 7ed620bb343f434f8a85f830020c04988df2a140 upstream. While adding support loading kernel and initrd above 4G to grub2 in legacy mode, I was referring to efi_high_alloc(). That will allocate buffer for kernel and then initrd, and initrd will use kernel buffer start as limit. During testing found two buffers will be overlapped when initrd size is very big like 400M. It turns out efi_high_alloc() boundary checking is not right. end - size will be the new start, and should not compare new start with max, we need to make sure end is smaller than max. [ Basically, with the current efi_high_alloc() code it's possible to allocate memory above 'max', because efi_high_alloc() doesn't check that the tail of the allocation is below 'max'. If you have an EFI memory map with a single entry that looks like so, [0xc0000000-0xc0004000] And want to allocate 0x3000 bytes below 0xc0003000 the current code will allocate [0xc0001000-0xc0004000], not [0xc0000000-0xc0003000] like you would expect. - Matt ] Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland Tested-by: Mark Rutland Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/firmware/memmap.c: don't create memmap sysfs of same firmware_map_entry

2014-10-10T02:26:00Z

By the following commits, we prevented from allocating firmware_map_entry of same memory range: f0093ede: drivers/firmware/memmap.c: don't allocate firmware_map_entry of same memory range 49c8b24d: drivers/firmware/memmap.c: pass the correct argument to firmware_map_find_entry_bootmem() But it's not enough. When PNP0C80 device is added by acpi_scan_init(), memmap sysfses of same firmware_map_entry are created twice as follows: # cat /sys/firmware/memmap/*/start 0x40000000000 0x60000000000 0x4a837000 0x4a83a000 0x4a8b5000 ... 0x40000000000 0x60000000000 ... The flows of the issues are as follows: 1. e820_reserve_resources() allocates firmware_map_entrys of all memory ranges defined in e820. And, these firmware_map_entrys are linked with map_entries list. map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N 2. When PNP0C80 device is limited by mem= boot option, acpi_scan_init() added the memory device. In this case, firmware_map_add_hotplug() allocates firmware_map_entry and creates memmap sysfs. map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N -> entry N+1 | memmap 1 3. firmware_memmap_init() creates memmap sysfses of firmware_map_entrys linked with map_entries. map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N -> entry N+1 | | | memmap 2 memmap N+1 memmap 1 memmap N+2 So while hot removing the PNP0C80 device, kernel panic occurs as follows: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000001003e000b IP: sysfs_open_file+0x46/0x2b0 PGD 203a89fe067 PUD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP ...

efi: Delete the in_nmi() conditional runtime locking

2014-10-03T17:41:03Z

commit 5dc3826d9f08 ("efi: Implement mandatory locking for UEFI Runtime Services") implemented some conditional locking when accessing variable runtime services that Ingo described as "pretty disgusting". The intention with the !efi_in_nmi() checks was to avoid live-locks when trying to write pstore crash data into an EFI variable. Such lockless accesses are allowed according to the UEFI specification when we're in a "non-recoverable" state, but whether or not things are implemented correctly in actual firmware implementations remains an unanswered question, and so it would seem sensible to avoid doing any kind of unsynchronized variable accesses. Furthermore, the efi_in_nmi() tests are inadequate because they don't account for the case where we call EFI variable services from panic or oops callbacks and aren't executing in NMI context. In other words, live-locking is still possible. Let's just remove the conditional locking altogether. Now we've got the ->set_variable_nonblocking() EFI variable operation we can abort if the runtime lock is already held. Aborting is by far the safest option.

efi: Provide a non-blocking SetVariable() operation

2014-10-03T17:41:03Z

There are some circumstances that call for trying to write an EFI variable in a non-blocking way. One such scenario is when writing pstore data in efi_pstore_write() via the pstore_dump() kdump callback. Now that we have an EFI runtime spinlock we need a way of aborting if there is contention instead of spinning, since when writing pstore data from the kdump callback, the runtime lock may already be held by the CPU that's running the callback if we crashed in the middle of an EFI variable operation. The situation is sufficiently special that a new EFI variable operation is warranted. Introduce ->set_variable_nonblocking() for this use case. It is an optional EFI backend operation, and need only be implemented by those backends that usually acquire locks to serialize access to EFI variables, as is the case for virt_efi_set_variable() where we now grab the EFI runtime spinlock.

efi: Resolve some shadow warnings

2014-10-03T17:41:01Z

It is a really bad idea to declare variables or parameters that have the same name as common types. It is valid C, but it gets surprising if a macro expansion attempts to declare an inner local with that type. Change the local names to eliminate the hazard. Change s16 => str16, s8 => str8. This resolves warnings seen when using W=2 during make, for instance: drivers/firmware/efi/vars.c: In function ‘dup_variable_bug’: drivers/firmware/efi/vars.c:324:44: warning: declaration of ‘s16’ shadows a global declaration [-Wshadow] static void dup_variable_bug(efi_char16_t *s16, efi_guid_t *vendor_guid, drivers/firmware/efi/vars.c:328:8: warning: declaration of ‘s8’ shadows a global declaration [-Wshadow] char *s8; Signed-off-by: Mark Rustad Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

efi: Introduce efi_md_typeattr_format()

2014-10-03T17:41:00Z

At the moment, there are three architectures debug-printing the EFI memory map at initialization: x86, ia64, and arm64. They all use different format strings, plus the EFI memory type and the EFI memory attributes are similarly hard to decode for a human reader. Introduce a helper __init function that formats the memory type and the memory attributes in a unified way, to a user-provided character buffer. The array "memory_type_name" is copied from the arm64 code, temporarily duplicating it. The (otherwise optional) braces around each string literal in the initializer list are dropped in order to match the kernel coding style more closely. The element size is tightened from 32 to 20 bytes (maximum actual string length + 1) so that we can derive the field width from the element size.
