[PATCH] efi: Fix handling of multiple contiguous efi_fake_mem= entries

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A recent test of efi_fake_mem=4G@9G:0x40000,4G@13G:0x40000 crashed with
a signature of:

    BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff281000

    RIP: 0010:efi_memmap_insert+0x11d/0x191

efi_memmap_insert() is attempting to insert entries past the end of the
new map. This condition is setup by efi_fake_mem() leaking empty entries
to the end of memory map, and then efi_arch_mem_reserve() trips over the
bad entry when attempting an additional efi_memmap_insert(). The empty
entry causes efi_memmap_insert() to attempt more memmap splits / copies
than efi_memmap_split_count() accounted for when sizing the new map.

Update efi_fake_memmap() to cleanup lagging empty entries.

This change is related to commit af1648984828 "x86/efi: Update e820 with
reserved EFI boot services data to fix kexec breakage" since that
introduces more occurrences where efi_memmap_insert() is invoked after
an efi_fake_mem= configuration has been parsed. Previously the side
effects of vestigial empty entries were benign, but with commit
af1648984828 that follow-on efi_memmap_insert() invocation triggers the
above crash signature.
