<id>urn:sha1:f0df68d5bae8825ee5b62f00af237ae82247f045</id>
<content type='text'>
Just like with PCI options ROMs, which we save in the setup_efi_pci*
functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/eboot.c, the EFI code / ROM itself
sometimes may contain data which is useful/necessary for peripheral drivers
to have access to.

Specifically the EFI code may contain an embedded copy of firmware which
needs to be (re)loaded into the peripheral. Normally such firmware would be
part of linux-firmware, but in some cases this is not feasible, for 2
reasons:

1) The firmware is customized for a specific use-case of the chipset / use
with a specific hardware model, so we cannot have a single firmware file
for the chipset. E.g. touchscreen controller firmwares are compiled
specifically for the hardware model they are used with, as they are
calibrated for a specific model digitizer.

2) Despite repeated attempts we have failed to get permission to
redistribute the firmware. This is especially a problem with customized
firmwares, these get created by the chip vendor for a specific ODM and the
copyright may partially belong with the ODM, so the chip vendor cannot
give a blanket permission to distribute these.

This commit adds support for finding peripheral firmware embedded in the
EFI code and makes the found firmware available through the new
efi_get_embedded_fw() function.

Support for loading these firmwares through the standard firmware loading
mechanism is added in a follow-up commit in this patch-series.

Note we check the EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE for embedded firmware near the end
of start_kernel(), just before calling rest_init(), this is on purpose
because the typical EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE memory-segment is too large for
early_memremap(), so the check must be done after mm_init(). This relies
on EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE not being free-ed until efi_free_boot_services()
is called, which means that this will only work on x86 for now.

<title>efi: Allow disabling PCI busmastering on bridges during boot</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4444f8541dad16fefd9b8807ad1451e806ef1d94</id>
<content type='text'>
Add an option to disable the busmaster bit in the control register on
all PCI bridges before calling ExitBootServices() and passing control
to the runtime kernel. System firmware may configure the IOMMU to prevent
malicious PCI devices from being able to attack the OS via DMA. However,
since firmware can't guarantee that the OS is IOMMU-aware, it will tear
down IOMMU configuration when ExitBootServices() is called. This leaves
a window between where a hostile device could still cause damage before
Linux configures the IOMMU again.

If CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA is enabled or "efi=disable_early_pci_dma"
is passed on the command line, the EFI stub will clear the busmaster bit
on all PCI bridges before ExitBootServices() is called. This will
prevent any malicious PCI devices from being able to perform DMA until
the kernel reenables busmastering after configuring the IOMMU.

This option may cause failures with some poorly behaved hardware and
should not be enabled without testing. The kernel commandline options
"efi=disable_early_pci_dma" or "efi=no_disable_early_pci_dma" may be
used to override the default. Note that PCI devices downstream from PCI
bridges are disconnected from their drivers first, using the UEFI
driver model API, so that DMA can be disabled safely at the bridge
level.

[ardb: disconnect PCI I/O handles first, as suggested by Arvind]

<title>efi: Common enable/disable infrastructure for EFI soft reservation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b617c5266eedbef2ccbb90931bb9175faa4ae0bc</id>
<content type='text'>
UEFI 2.8 defines an EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute bit to augment the
interpretation of the EFI Memory Types as "reserved for a specific
purpose".

The proposed Linux behavior for specific purpose memory is that it is
reserved for direct-access (device-dax) by default and not available for
any kernel usage, not even as an OOM fallback.  Later, through udev
scripts or another init mechanism, these device-dax claimed ranges can
be reconfigured and hot-added to the available System-RAM with a unique
node identifier. This device-dax management scheme implements "soft" in
the "soft reserved" designation by allowing some or all of the
reservation to be recovered as typical memory. This policy can be
disabled at compile-time with CONFIG_EFI_SOFT_RESERVE=n, or runtime with
efi=nosoftreserve.

As for this patch, define the common helpers to determine if the
EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute should be honored. The determination needs to be
made early to prevent the kernel from being loaded into soft-reserved
memory, or otherwise allowing early allocations to land there. Follow-on
changes are needed per architecture to leverage these helpers in their
respective mem-init paths.

For the EFI_RCI2_TABLE Kconfig option, 'make oldconfig' asks the user
for input on platforms where the option may not be applicable. This patch
modifies the Kconfig option to ask the user for input only when CONFIG_X86
or CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set to y.

<content type='text'>
System firmware advertises the address of the 'Runtime
Configuration Interface table version 2 (RCI2)' via
an EFI Configuration Table entry. This code retrieves the RCI2
table from the address and exports it to sysfs as a binary
attribute 'rci2' under /sys/firmware/efi/tables directory.
The approach adopted is similar to the attribute 'DMI' under
/sys/firmware/dmi/tables.

RCI2 table contains BIOS HII in XML format and is used to populate
BIOS setup page in Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator tool.
The BIOS setup page contains BIOS tokens which can be configured.

<title>efi/x86: Convert x86 EFI earlyprintk into generic earlycon implementation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69c1f396f25b805aeff08f06d2e992c315ee5b1e</id>
<content type='text'>
Move the x86 EFI earlyprintk implementation to a shared location under
drivers/firmware and tweak it slightly so we can expose it as an earlycon
implementation (which is generic) rather than earlyprintk (which is only
implemented for a few architectures)

This also involves switching to write-combine mappings by default (which
is required on ARM since device mappings lack memory semantics, and so
memcpy/memset may not be used on them), and adding support for shared
memory framebuffers on cache coherent non-x86 systems (which do not
tolerate mismatched attributes).

Note that 32-bit ARM does not populate its struct screen_info early
enough for earlycon=efifb to work, so it is disabled there.

<content type='text'>
There are various ways a platform can provide a device tree binary
to the kernel, with different levels of sophistication:

- ideally, the UEFI firmware, which is tightly coupled with the
  platform, provides a device tree image directly as a UEFI
  configuration table, and typically permits the contents to be
  manipulated either via menu options or via UEFI environment
  variables that specify a replacement image,

- GRUB for ARM has a 'devicetree' directive which allows a device
  tree image to be loaded from any location accessible to GRUB, and
  supersede the one provided by the firmware,

- the EFI stub implements a dtb= command line option that allows a
  device tree image to be loaded from a file residing in the same
  file system as the one the kernel image was loaded from.

The dtb= command line option was never intended to be more than a
development feature, to allow the other options to be implemented
in parallel. So let's make it an opt-in feature that is disabled
by default, but can be re-enabled at will.

Note that we already disable the dtb= command line option when we
detect that we are running with UEFI Secure Boot enabled.

Makefile depending on a new "UEFI_CPER_X86" config option.

Print the Local APIC ID and CPUID info from the Processor Error Record.

The "Processor Error Info" and "Processor Context" fields will be
decoded in following patches.
