efi/efivars: Expose RT service availability via efivars abstraction

2020-07-09T07:14:29Z

Commit bf67fad19e493b ("efi: Use more granular check for availability for variable services") introduced a check into the efivarfs, efi-pstore and other drivers that aborts loading of the module if not all three variable runtime services (GetVariable, SetVariable and GetNextVariable) are supported. However, this results in efivarfs being unavailable entirely if only SetVariable support is missing, which is only needed if you want to make any modifications. Also, efi-pstore and the sysfs EFI variable interface could be backed by another implementation of the 'efivars' abstraction, in which case it is completely irrelevant which services are supported by the EFI firmware. So make the generic 'efivars' abstraction dependent on the availibility of the GetVariable and GetNextVariable EFI runtime services, and add a helper 'efivar_supports_writes()' to find out whether the currently active efivars abstraction supports writes (and wire it up to the availability of SetVariable for the generic one). Then, use the efivar_supports_writes() helper to decide whether to permit efivarfs to be mounted read-write, and whether to enable efi-pstore or the sysfs EFI variable interface altogether.

efi/libstub: arm: Print CPU boot mode and MMU state at boot

2020-06-17T13:29:11Z

On 32-bit ARM, we may boot at HYP mode, or with the MMU and caches off (or both), even though the EFI spec does not actually support this. While booting at HYP mode is something we might tolerate, fiddling with the caches is a more serious issue, as disabling the caches is tricky to do safely from C code, and running without the Dcache makes it impossible to support unaligned memory accesses, which is another explicit requirement imposed by the EFI spec. So take note of the CPU mode and MMU state in the EFI stub diagnostic output so that we can easily diagnose any issues that may arise from this. E.g., EFI stub: Entering in SVC mode with MMU enabled Also, capture the CPSR and SCTLR system register values at EFI stub entry, and after ExitBootServices() returns, and check whether the MMU and Dcache were disabled at any point. If this is the case, a diagnostic message like the following will be emitted: efi: [Firmware Bug]: EFI stub was entered with MMU and Dcache disabled, please fix your firmware! efi: CPSR at EFI stub entry : 0x600001d3 efi: SCTLR at EFI stub entry : 0x00c51838 efi: CPSR after ExitBootServices() : 0x600001d3 efi: SCTLR after ExitBootServices(): 0x00c50838 Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Reviewed-by: Leif Lindholm

efi: Replace zero-length array and use struct_size() helper

2020-06-15T12:38:56Z

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues. Lastly, make use of the sizeof_field() helper instead of an open-coded version. This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle and audited _manually_.

efi: Clean up config table description arrays

2020-04-24T12:52:16Z

Increase legibility by adding whitespace to the efi_config_table_type_t arrays that describe which EFI config tables we look for when going over the firmware provided list. While at it, replace the 'name' char pointer with a char array, which is more space efficient on relocatable 64-bit kernels, as it avoids a 8 byte pointer and the associated relocation data (24 bytes when using RELA format) Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel
