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.

All other calls to allocate memory seem to make some noise already, with the exception of two calls (for gop, uga) in the setup_graphics path. The purpose is to be noisy on worrysome errors immediately. commit fb86b244 ("x86/efi: Add better error logging to EFI boot stub") introduces printing false alarms for lots of hardware. Rather than playing Whack a Mole with non-fatal exit conditions, try the other way round. This is per Matt Fleming's suggestion: > Where I think we could improve things > is by adding efi_printk() message in certain error paths. Clearly, not > all error paths need such messages, e.g. the EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER path > you highlighted above, but it makes sense for memory allocation and PCI > read failures.

The 32 bit and 64 bit implementations differ in their __init annotations for some functions referenced from the common EFI code. Namely, the 32 bit variant is missing some of the __init annotations the 64 bit variant has. To solve the colliding annotations, mark the corresponding functions in efi_32.c as initialization code, too -- as it is such. Actually, quite a few more functions are only used during initialization and therefore can be marked __init. They are therefore annotated, too. Also add the __init annotation to the prototypes in the efi.h header so users of those functions will see it's meant as initialization code only. This patch also fixes the "prelog" typo. ("prologue" / "epilogue" might be more appropriate but this is C code after all, not an opera! :D) Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Commit 3f4a7836 ("x86/efi: Rip out phys_efi_get_time()") left set_virtual_address_map as the only runtime service needed with a phys mapping but missed to update the preceding comment. Fix that.

This variable was accidentally exported, even though it's only used in this compilation unit and only during initialization. Remove the bogus export, make the variable static instead and mark it as __initdata. Fixes: 200001eb ("x86 boot: only pick up additional EFI memmap...")

Complement commit 62fa6e69 ("x86/efi: Delete most of the efi_call* macros") and delete the stub macros for the !CONFIG_EFI case, too. In fact, there are no EFI calls in this case so we don't need a dummy for efi_call() even. Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

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 <mark.d.rustad@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

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.

If enter virtual mode failed due to some reason other than the efi call the EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES bit in efi.flags should be cleared thus users of efi runtime services can check the bit and handle the case instead of assume efi runtime is ok. Per Matt, if efi call SetVirtualAddressMap fails we will be not sure it's safe to make any assumptions about the state of the system. So kernel panics instead of clears EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES bit.

We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used when reading files from the EFI System Partition. One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with commit 4bf7111f ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt initrd rather than any kind of crash. efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot. There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk, but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving the workaround enabled by default. Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're using the current value of 1MB.

According to section 7.1 of the UEFI spec, Runtime Services are not fully reentrant, and there are particular combinations of calls that need to be serialized. Use a spinlock to serialize all Runtime Services with respect to all others, even if this is more than strictly needed. We've managed to get away without requiring a runtime services lock until now because most of the interactions with EFI involve EFI variables, and those operations are already serialised with __efivars->lock. Some of the assumptions underlying the decision whether locks are needed or not (e.g., SetVariable() against ResetSystem()) may not apply universally to all [new] architectures that implement UEFI. Rather than try to reason our way out of this, let's just implement at least what the spec requires in terms of locking.

Some Toshiba models (most notably Qosmios) come with an incomplete backlight method where the AML code doesn't check for write or read commands and always returns HCI_SUCCESS and the actual brightness (and in some cases the max brightness), thus allowing the backlight interface to be registered without write support.
