commit 1de63d60cd5b0d33a812efa455d5933bf1564a51 upstream.

There was a serious problem in samsung-laptop that its platform driver is
designed to run under BIOS and running under EFI can cause the machine to
become bricked or can cause Machine Check Exceptions.

    Discussion about this problem:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557
    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121

    The patches to fix this problem:
    efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilities
    83e68189745ad931c2afd45d8ee3303929233e7f

    samsung-laptop: Disable on EFI hardware
    e0094244e41c4d0c7ad69920681972fc45d8ce34

Unfortunately this problem comes back again if users specify "noefi" option.
This parameter clears EFI_BOOT and that driver continues to run even if running
under EFI. Refer to the document, this parameter should clear
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES instead.

<title>x86, efi: Set runtime_version to the EFI spec revision</title>

commit 712ba9e9afc4b3d3d6fa81565ca36fe518915c01 upstream.

efi.runtime_version is erroneously being set to the value of the
vendor's firmware revision instead of that of the implemented EFI
specification. We can't deduce which EFI functions are available based
on the revision of the vendor's firmware since the version scheme is
likely to be unique to each vendor.

What we really need to know is the revision of the implemented EFI
specification, which is available in the EFI System Table header.

commit b8f2c21db390273c3eaf0e5308faeaeb1e233840 upstream.

Update efi_call_phys_prelog to install an identity mapping of all available
memory.  This corrects a bug on very large systems with more then 512 GB in
which bios would not be able to access addresses above not in the mapping.

The result is a crash that looks much like this.

<title>efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilities</title>

<id>72b56e869fa2c058969e47da101a9e7d319f6062</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 83e68189745ad931c2afd45d8ee3303929233e7f upstream.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from
EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now
indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with
bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware.

The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at,

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557

which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is
designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become
bricked. Also, the following report,

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121

details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check
Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're
running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression,

    if (!efi_enabled)

hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time.

Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons -
what they really want access to is the list of available EFI
facilities.

For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke
the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while
the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were
mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform
driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which
would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things).

This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

The default reboot is via ACPI for this platform, and the CEFDK
bootloader actually supports this, but will issue a system power
off instead of a real reboot. Setting the reboot method to be
KBD instead of ACPI ensures proper system reboot.

The CE4100 platform is currently missing a proper pm_poweroff
implementation leading to poweroff making the CPU spin forever
and the CE4100 platform does not enter a low-power mode where
the external Power Management Unit can properly power off the
system. Power off on this platform is implemented pretty much
like reboot, by writing to the SoC built-in 8051 microcontroller
mapped at I/O port 0xcf9, the value 0x4.

When 32-bit EFI is used with 64-bit kernel (or vice versa), turn off
efi_enabled once setup is done. Beyond setup, it is normally used to
determine if runtime services are available and we will have none.

This will resolve issues stemming from efivars modprobe panicking on a
32/64-bit setup, as well as some reboot issues on similar setups.

<title>x86/efi: Fix oops caused by incorrect set_memory_uc() usage</title>

<content type='text'>
Calling __pa() with an ioremap'd address is invalid. If we
encounter an efi_memory_desc_t without EFI_MEMORY_WB set in
-&gt;attribute we currently call set_memory_uc(), which in turn
calls __pa() on a potentially ioremap'd address.

On CONFIG_X86_32 this results in the following oops:

The only time we can call set_memory_uc() for a memory region is
when it is part of the direct kernel mapping. For the case where
we ioremap a memory region we must leave it alone.

This patch reimplements the fix from e8c7106280a3 ("x86, efi:
Calling __pa() with an ioremap()ed address is invalid") which
was reverted in e1ad783b12ec because it caused a regression on
some MacBooks (they hung at boot). The regression was caused
because the commit only marked EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA as
E820_RESERVED_EFI, when it should have marked all regions that
have the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute.

Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use
ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on
CONFIG_X86_64 because of the way that the memory map might be
configured as detailed in the following bug report,

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516

e.g. some of the EFI memory regions *need* to be mapped as part
of the direct kernel mapping.

<title>efi: Fix the ACPI BGRT driver for images located in EFI boot services memory</title>

<content type='text'>
The ACPI BGRT driver accesses the BIOS logo image when it initializes.
However, ACPI 5.0 (which introduces the BGRT) recommends putting the
logo image in EFI boot services memory, so that the OS can reclaim that
memory.  Production systems follow this recommendation, breaking the
ACPI BGRT driver.

Move the bulk of the BGRT code to run during a new EFI late
initialization phase, which occurs after switching EFI to virtual mode,
and after initializing ACPI, but before freeing boot services memory.
Copy the BIOS logo image to kernel memory at that point, and make it
accessible to the BGRT driver.  Rework the existing ACPI BGRT driver to
act as a simple wrapper exposing that image (and the properties from the
BGRT) via sysfs.
