When a function is used in more than one file it may not be possible to immediately tell from context what the intended meaning is. As such, it is more important that the naming be self-evident. Thus, change get_flags() to get_cpuflags(). For consistency, change check_flags() to check_cpuflags() even though it is only used in cpucheck.c.

Adds potential sources of randomness: RDRAND, RDTSC, or the i8254. This moves the pre-alternatives inline rdrand function into the header so both pieces of code can use it. Availability of RDRAND is then controlled by CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, if someone wants to disable it even for kASLR. Signed-off-by:

This allows decompress_kernel to return a new location for the kernel to be relocated to. Additionally, enforces CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as the minimum relocation position when building with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. With CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE set, the choose_kernel_location routine will select a new location to decompress the kernel, though here it is presently a no-op. The kernel command line option "nokaslr" is introduced to bypass these routines. Signed-off-by:

Refactor the CPU flags handling out of the cpucheck routines so that they can be reused by the future ASLR routines (in order to detect CPU features like RDRAND and RDTSC).

Moves the relocation handling into C, after decompression. This requires that the decompressed size is passed to the decompression routine as well so that relocations can be found. Only kernels that need relocation support will use the code (currently just x86_32), but this is laying the ground work for 64-bit using it in support of KASLR. Based on work by Neill Clift and Michael Davidson. Signed-off-by:

ExitBootServices is absolutely supposed to return a failure if any ExitBootServices event handler changes the memory map. Basically the get_map loop should run again if ExitBootServices returns an error the first time. I would say it would be fair that if ExitBootServices gives an error the second time then Linux would be fine in returning control back to BIOS. The second change is the following line: again: size += sizeof(*mem_map) * 2; Originally you were incrementing it by the size of one memory map entry. The issue here is all related to the low_alloc routine you are using. In this routine you are making allocations to get the memory map itself. Doing this allocation or allocations can affect the memory map by more than one record. [ mfleming - changelog, code style ] Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

We need to check the runtime sys_table for the EFI version the firmware specifies instead of just checking for a NULL QueryVariableInfo. Older implementations of EFI don't have QueryVariableInfo but the runtime is a smaller structure, so the pointer to it may be pointing off into garbage. This is apparently the case with several Apple firmwares that support EFI 1.10, and the current check causes them to no longer boot. Fix based on a suggestion from Matthew Garrett. Signed-off-by:

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.

eboot.o and efi_stub_$(BITS).o didn't get added to "targets", and hence their .cmd files don't get included by the build machinery, leading to the files always getting rebuilt. Rather than adding the two files individually, take the opportunity and add $(VMLINUX_OBJS) to "targets" instead, thus allowing the assignment at the top of the file to be shrunk quite a bit. At the same time, remove a pointless flags override line - the variable assigned to was misspelled anyway, and the options added are meaningless for assembly sources.

When initrd file didn't put at the same place with stub kernel, we need give the file path of initrd, but need use backslash to separate directory and file. It's not friendly to unix/linux user, and not so intuitive for bootloader forward paramters to efi stub kernel by chainloading. This patch add support to handle_ramdisks for allow slash in file path of initrd, it convert slash to backlash when parsing path. In additional, this patch also separates print code of efi_char16_t from efi_printk, and print out the path/filename of initrd when failed to open initrd file. It's good for debug and discover typo.

We have historically hard-coded entry points in head.S just so it's easy to build the executable/bzImage headers with references to them. Unfortunately, this leads to boot loaders abusing these "known" addresses even when they are *explicitly* told that they "should look at the ELF header to find this address, as it may change in the future". And even when the address in question *has* actually been changed in the past, without fanfare or thought to compatibility. Thus we have bootloaders doing stunningly broken things like jumping to offset 0x200 in the kernel startup code in 64-bit mode, *hoping* that startup_64 is still there (it has moved at least once before). And hoping that it's actually a 64-bit kernel despite the fact that we don't give them any indication of that fact. This patch should hopefully remove the temptation to abuse internal addresses in future, where sternly worded comments have not sufficed. Instead of having hard-coded addresses and saying "please don't abuse these", we actually pull the addresses out of the ELF payload into zoffset.h, and make build.c shove them back into the right places in the bzImage header. Rather than including zoffset.h into build.c and thus having to rebuild the tool for every kernel build, we parse it instead. The parsing code is small and simple. This patch doesn't actually move any of the interesting entry points, so any offending bootloader will still continue to "work" after this patch is applied. For some version of "work" which includes jumping into the compressed payload and crashing, if the bzImage it's given is a 32-bit kernel. No change there then.

When booting under OVMF we have precisely one GOP device, and it implements the ConOut protocol. We break out of the loop when we look at it... and then promptly abort because 'first_gop' never gets set. We should set first_gop *before* breaking out of the loop. Yes, it doesn't really mean "first" any more, but that doesn't matter. It's only a flag to indicate that a suitable GOP was found. In fact, we'd do just as well to initialise 'width' to zero in this function, then just check *that* instead of first_gop. But I'll do the minimal fix for now (and for stable@). Signed-off-by:

The majority of the DMI checks in efifb are for cases where the bootloader has provided invalid information. However, on some machines the overrides may do more harm than good due to configuration differences between machines with the same machine identifier. It turns out that it's possible for the bootloader to get the correct information on GOP-based systems, but we can't guarantee that the kernel's being booted with one that's been updated to do so. Add support for a capabilities flag that can be set by the bootloader, and skip the DMI checks in that case. Additionally, set this flag in the UEFI stub code. Signed-off-by:
