[GIT PULL] EFI updates for v5.7

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

 



Hello Ingo, Thomas,

I am sending this as an ordinary PR this time, given the size. Please let
me know if instead, you prefer me to send it out piecemeal as usual. Either
works for me, I was just reluctant to spam people unsolicited.

Note that EFI for RISC-V may still arrive this cycle as well. 

Please take special note of the GDT changes by Arvind. They were posted to
the list without any feedback, and they look fine to me, but I know very
little about these x86 CPU low level details.

This was all build and boot tested on various different kinds of hardware,
and all minor issues were fixed along the way.


The following changes since commit bb6d3fb354c5ee8d6bde2d576eb7220ea09862b9:

  efi: Bump the Linux EFI stub major version number to #1 (2020-02-21 09:04:34 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
This time, the set of changes for the EFI subsystem is much larger than
usual. The main reasons are:
- Get things cleaned up before EFI support for RISC-V arrives, which will
  increase the size of the validation matrix, and therefore the threshold to
  making drastic changes,
- After years of defunct maintainership, the GRUB project has finally started
  to consider changes from the distros regarding UEFI boot, some of which are
  highly specific to the way x86 does UEFI secure boot and measured boot,
  based on knowledge of both shim internals and the layout of bootparams and
  the x86 setup header. Having this maintenance burden on other architectures
  (which don't need shim in the first place) is hard to justify, so instead,
  we are introducing a generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol.

Summary of changes:
- Boot time GDT handling changes (Arvind)
- Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64
- Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file I/O,
  memory allocation, etc.
- Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back into
  the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover protocol or
  device tree.
- Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86 EFI
  handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by other
  architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one execution mode
  is a superset of another)
- Clean up the contents of struct efi, and move out everything that
  doesn't need to be stored there.
- Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit firmware
  implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI runtime services at
  OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are supported or unsupported
  via a configuration table.
- Add kerneldoc for the memory allocation routines in the stub (Heinrich)
- Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the decompressor
  on 32-bit ARM. Note that these patches were deliberately put at the
  beginning so they can be used as a stable branch that will be shared with
  a PR containing the complete fix, which I will send to the ARM tree.
