This design mainly targeting a simplest interface that user could upload efi capsule in a single command action: cat capsule.bin > /dev/efi_capsule_loader So, it is expected that efi capsule header is at the starting of the binary file. Already capture this into efi_capsule_write() comment in v7 patchset: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/5/232 If you want to enhance this module to support creating efi capsule header for your binary, strongly believe this design can cater the implementation such as adding ioctl to pass in efi guid, flags and so on parameters to create the header. > > > + if (ret) { > > + pr_err("%s: efi_capsule_supported() failed\n", > > + __func__); > > + kunmap(kbuff_page); > > + efi_free_all_buff_pages(kbuff_page); > > + return ret; > > + } > > + > > + cap_info.total_size = cap_hdr->imagesize; > > + cap_info.pages = kmalloc_array(pages_needed, sizeof(void *), > > + GFP_KERNEL); > > + if (!cap_info.pages) { > > + pr_debug("%s: kmalloc_array() failed\n", __func__); > > + kunmap(kbuff_page); > > + efi_free_all_buff_pages(kbuff_page); > > + return -ENOMEM; > > + } > > + > > + cap_info.header_obtained = 1; > > I don't see how you know that the header is obtained. Capsule header is at the starting block of image binary. We can obtain the header through the 1st block of write action. So, user app is expected to upload the image binary sequentially.
