license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Lguest seems to be rather unused these days. It has seen only patches
ensuring it still builds the last two years and its official state is
"Odd Fixes".
Remove it in order to be able to clean up the paravirt code.

Get the firmware's secure-boot status in the kernel boot wrapper and stash
it somewhere that the main kernel image can find.
The efi_get_secureboot() function is extracted from the ARM stub and (a)
generalised so that it can be called from x86 and (b) made to use
efi_call_runtime() so that it can be run in mixed-mode.
For x86, it is stored in boot_params and can be overridden by the boot
loader or kexec. This allows secure-boot mode to be passed on to a new
kernel.

Linus pointed out that relying on the compiler to pack structures with
enums is fragile not just for the kernel, but for external tooling as
well which might rely on our UAPI headers.
So separate the two from each other: introduce 'struct boot_e820_entry',
which is the boot protocol entry format.
This actually simplifies the code, as e820__update_table() is now never
called directly with boot protocol table entries - we can rely on
append_e820_table() and do a e820__update_table() call afterwards.
( This will allow further simplifications of __e820__update_table(),
but that will be done in a separate patch. )
This change also has the side effect of not modifying the bootparams structure
anymore - which might be useful for debugging. In theory we could even constify
the boot_params structure - at least from the E820 code's point of view.
Remove the uapi/asm/e820/types.h file, as it's not used anymore - all
kernel side E820 types are defined in asm/e820/types.h.

We've got a number of defines related to the E820 table and its size:
E820MAP
E820NR
E820_X_MAX
E820MAX
The first two denote byte offsets into the zeropage (struct boot_params),
and can are not used in the kernel and can be removed.
The E820_*_MAX values have an inconsistent structure and it's unclear in any
case what they mean. 'X' presuably goes for extended - but it's not very
expressive altogether.
Change these over to:
E820_MAX_ENTRIES_ZEROPAGE
E820_MAX_ENTRIES
... which are self-explanatory names.

In line with the rename to 'struct e820_array', harmonize the naming of common e820
table variable names as well:
e820 => e820_array
e820_saved => e820_array_saved
e820_map => e820_array
initial_e820 => e820_array_init
This makes the variable names more consistent and easier to grep for.

'struct e820_array'
The 'e820entry' and 'e820map' names have various annoyances:
- the missing underscore departs from the usual kernel style
and makes the code look weird,
- in the past I kept confusing the 'map' with the 'entry', because
a 'map' is ambiguous in that regard,
- it's not really clear from the 'e820map' that this is a regular
C array.
Rename them to 'struct e820_entry' and 'struct e820_array' accordingly.
( Leave the legacy UAPI header alone but do the rename in the bootparam.h
and e820/types.h file - outside tools relying on these defines should
either adjust their code, or should use the legacy header, or should
create their private copies for the definitions. )

In line with asm/e820/types.h, move the e820 API declarations to
asm/e820/api.h and update all usage sites.
This is just a mechanical, obviously correct move & replace patch,
there will be subsequent changes to clean up the code and to make
better use of the new header organization.

Apple's EFI drivers supply device properties which are needed to support
Macs optimally. They contain vital information which cannot be obtained
any other way (e.g. Thunderbolt Device ROM). They're also used to convey
the current device state so that OS drivers can pick up where EFI
drivers left (e.g. GPU mode setting).
There's an EFI driver dubbed "AAPL,PathProperties" which implements a
per-device key/value store. Other EFI drivers populate it using a custom
protocol. The macOS bootloader /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi
retrieves the properties with the same protocol. The kernel extension
AppleACPIPlatform.kext subsequently merges them into the I/O Kit
registry (see ioreg(8)) where they can be queried by other kernel
extensions and user space.
This commit extends the efistub to retrieve the device properties before
ExitBootServices is called. It assigns them to devices in an fs_initcall
so that they can be queried with the API in <linux/property.h>.
Note that the device properties will only be available if the kernel is
booted with the efistub. Distros should adjust their installers to
always use the efistub on Macs. grub with the "linux" directive will not
work unless the functionality of this commit is duplicated in grub.
(The "linuxefi" directive should work but is not included upstream as of
this writing.)
The custom protocol has GUID 91BD12FE-F6C3-44FB-A5B7-5122AB303AE0 and
looks like this:
typedef struct {
unsigned long version; /* 0x10000 */
efi_status_t (*get) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name,
OUT void *buffer,
IN OUT u32 *buffer_len);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_NOT_FOUND, EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL */
efi_status_t (*set) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name,
IN void *property_value,
IN u32 property_value_len);
/* allocates copies of property name and value */
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES */
efi_status_t (*del) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_NOT_FOUND */
efi_status_t (*get_all) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
OUT void *buffer,
IN OUT u32 *buffer_len);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL */
} apple_properties_protocol;
Thanks to Pedro Vilaça for this blog post which was helpful in reverse
engineering Apple's EFI drivers and bootloader:
https://reverse.put.as/2016/06/25/apple-efi-firmware-passwords-and-the-scbo-myth/
If someone at Apple is reading this, please note there's a memory leak
in your implementation of the del() function as the property struct is
freed but the name and value allocations are not.
Neither the macOS bootloader nor Apple's EFI drivers check the protocol
version, but we do to avoid breakage if it's ever changed. It's been the
same since at least OS X 10.6 (2009).
The get_all() function conveniently fills a buffer with all properties
in marshalled form which can be passed to the kernel as a setup_data
payload. The number of device properties is dynamic and can change
between a first invocation of get_all() (to determine the buffer size)
and a second invocation (to retrieve the actual buffer), hence the
peculiar loop which does not finish until the buffer size settles.
The macOS bootloader does the same.
The setup_data payload is later on unmarshalled in an fs_initcall. The
idea is that most buses instantiate devices in "subsys" initcall level
and drivers are usually bound to these devices in "device" initcall
level, so we assign the properties in-between, i.e. in "fs" initcall
level.
This assumes that devices to which properties pertain are instantiated
from a "subsys" initcall or earlier. That should always be the case
since on macOS, AppleACPIPlatformExpert::matchEFIDevicePath() only
supports ACPI and PCI nodes and we've fully scanned those buses during
"subsys" initcall level.
The second assumption is that properties are only needed from a "device"
initcall or later. Seems reasonable to me, but should this ever not work
out, an alternative approach would be to store the property sets e.g. in
a btree early during boot. Then whenever device_add() is called, an EFI
Device Path would have to be constructed for the newly added device,
and looked up in the btree. That way, the property set could be assigned
to the device immediately on instantiation. And this would also work for
devices instantiated in a deferred fashion. It seems like this approach
would be more complicated and require more code. That doesn't seem
justified without a specific use case.
For comparison, the strategy on macOS is to assign properties to objects
in the ACPI namespace (AppleACPIPlatformExpert::mergeEFIProperties()).
That approach is definitely wrong as it fails for devices not present in
the namespace: The NHI EFI driver supplies properties for attached
Thunderbolt devices, yet on Macs with Thunderbolt 1 only one device
level behind the host controller is described in the namespace.
Consequently macOS cannot assign properties for chained devices. With
Thunderbolt 2 they started to describe three device levels behind host
controllers in the namespace but this grossly inflates the SSDT and
still fails if the user daisy-chained more than three devices.
We copy the property names and values from the setup_data payload to
swappable virtual memory and afterwards make the payload available to
the page allocator. This is just for the sake of good housekeeping, it
wouldn't occupy a meaningful amount of physical memory (4444 bytes on my
machine). Only the payload is freed, not the setup_data header since
otherwise we'd break the list linkage and we cannot safely update the
predecessor's ->next link because there's no locking for the list.
The payload is currently not passed on to kexec'ed kernels, same for PCI
ROMs retrieved by setup_efi_pci(). This can be added later if there is
demand by amending setup_efi_state(). The payload can then no longer be
made available to the page allocator of course.

Although hardware_subarch has been in place since the x86 boot
protocol 2.07 it hasn't been used much. Enumerate current possible
values to avoid misuses and help with semantics later at boot
time should this be used further.
These enums should only ever be used by architecture x86 code,
and all that code should be well contained and compartamentalized,
clarify that as well.

f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation")
In order to propagate KASLR status to kernel proper, we need a single bit
in boot_params.hdr.loadflags and we've chosen bit 1 thus leaving the
top-down allocated bits for bits supposed to be used by the bootloader.

This reverts commit:
f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation")
The main reason for the revert is that the new boot flag does not work
at all currently, and in order to make this work, we need non-trivial
changes to the x86 boot code which we didn't manage to get done in
time for merging.
And even if we did, they would've been too risky so instead of
rushing things and break booting 4.1 on boxes left and right, we
will be very strict and conservative and will take our time with
this to fix and test it properly.

Commit:
e2b32e678513 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address")
makes the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in
case when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't
present on the commandline.
This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether
it will randomize kernel load base.
Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is
explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space
larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION &&
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied
by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that.
Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic
aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and
uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during
kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable
accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...)
can make decisions based on its value.
x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

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.

Add a new setup_data type SETUP_EFI for kexec use. Passing the saved
fw_vendor, runtime, config tables and EFI runtime mappings.
When entering virtual mode, directly mapping the EFI runtime regions
which we passed in previously. And skip the step to call
SetVirtualAddressMap().
Specially for HP z420 workstation we need save the smbios physical
address. The kernel boot sequence proceeds in the following order.
Step 2 requires efi.smbios to be the physical address. However, I found
that on HP z420 EFI system table has a virtual address of SMBIOS in step
1. Hence, we need set it back to the physical address with the smbios
in efi_setup_data. (When it is still the physical address, it simply
sets the same value.)
1. efi_init() - Set efi.smbios from EFI system table
2. dmi_scan_machine() - Temporary map efi.smbios to access SMBIOS table
3. efi_enter_virtual_mode() - Map EFI ranges
Tested on ovmf+qemu, lenovo thinkpad, a dell laptop and an
HP z420 workstation.

mrst is used as common name to represent all intel_mid type
soc's. But moorsetwon is just one of the intel_mid soc. So
renamed them to use intel_mid.
This patch mainly renames the variables and related
functions that uses *mrst* prefix with *intel_mid*.
To ensure that there are no functional changes, I have compared
the objdump of related files before and after rename and found
the only difference is symbol and name changes.

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.

EFI variables can be flagged as being accessible only within boot services.
This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at
runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results
from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but
that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully,
calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more
reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub
up to the efi platform code.

Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol: add xloadflags and additional
fields to allow the command line, initramfs and struct boot_params to
live above the 4 GiB mark.
The xloadflags now communicates if this is a 64-bit kernel with the
legacy 64-bit entry point and which of the EFI handover entry points
are supported.
Avoid adding new read flags to loadflags because of claimed
bootloaders testing the whole byte for == 1 to determine bzImageness
at least until the issue can be researched further.
This is based on patches by Yinghai Lu and David Woodhouse.
