From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx> Hi Linus, A steady trickle of EFI fixes this cycle - this is due to the backports hitting kernels that are more widely used. There are a few more issues under investigation, but these fixes are straight-forward and important, so no need to delay them. Please pull. The following changes since commit b3810c5a2cc4a6665f7a65bed5393c75ce3f3aa2: x86/efistub: Clear decompressor BSS in native EFI entrypoint (2024-03-15 19:47:09 +0100) are available in the Git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/efi/efi.git tags/efi-fixes-for-v6.9-2 for you to fetch changes up to 62b71cd73d41ddac6b1760402bbe8c4932e23531: efi: fix panic in kdump kernel (2024-03-24 09:28:33 +0100) ---------------------------------------------------------------- EFI fixes for v6.9 #2 - Fix logic that is supposed to prevent placement of the kernel image below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR - Use the firmware stack in the EFI stub when running in mixed mode - Clear BSS only once when using mixed mode - Check efi.get_variable() function pointer for NULL before trying to call it ---------------------------------------------------------------- Ard Biesheuvel (2): x86/efistub: Call mixed mode boot services on the firmware's stack x86/efistub: Don't clear BSS twice in mixed mode KONDO KAZUMA(近藤 和真) (1): efi/libstub: fix efi_random_alloc() to allocate memory at alloc_min or higher address Oleksandr Tymoshenko (1): efi: fix panic in kdump kernel arch/x86/boot/compressed/efi_mixed.S | 9 +++++++++ drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c | 2 ++ drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/randomalloc.c | 2 +- drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/x86-stub.c | 3 ++- 4 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
