<title>efi: Fix a race and a buffer overflow while reading efivars via sysfs</title>

<id>286d3250c9d6437340203fb64938bea344729a0e</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a race and a buffer overflow corrupting a kernel memory while
reading an EFI variable with a size more than 1024 bytes via the older
sysfs method. This happens because accessing struct efi_variable in
efivar_{attr,size,data}_read() and friends is not protected from
a concurrent access leading to a kernel memory corruption and, at best,
to a crash. The race scenario is the following:

CPU0:                                CPU1:
efivar_attr_read()
  var-&gt;DataSize = 1024;
  efivar_entry_get(... &amp;var-&gt;DataSize)
    down_interruptible(&amp;efivars_lock)
                                     efivar_attr_read() // same EFI var
                                       var-&gt;DataSize = 1024;
                                       efivar_entry_get(... &amp;var-&gt;DataSize)
                                         down_interruptible(&amp;efivars_lock)
    virt_efi_get_variable()
    // returns EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL but
    // var-&gt;DataSize is set to a real
    // var size more than 1024 bytes
    up(&amp;efivars_lock)
                                         virt_efi_get_variable()
                                         // called with var-&gt;DataSize set
                                         // to a real var size, returns
                                         // successfully and overwrites
                                         // a 1024-bytes kernel buffer
                                         up(&amp;efivars_lock)

This can be reproduced by concurrent reading of an EFI variable which size
is more than 1024 bytes:

  ts# for cpu in $(seq 0 $(nproc --ignore=1)); do ( taskset -c $cpu \
  cat /sys/firmware/efi/vars/KEKDefault*/size &amp; ) ; done

Fix this by using a local variable for a var's data buffer size so it
does not get overwritten.

<title>efi: READ_ONCE rng seed size before munmap</title>

<id>be36f9e7517e17810ec369626a128d7948942259</id>
<content type='text'>
This function is consistent with using size instead of seed-&gt;size
(except for one place that this patch fixes), but it reads seed-&gt;size
without using READ_ONCE, which means the compiler might still do
something unwanted. So, this commit simply adds the READ_ONCE
wrapper.

Now walk_page_range() can walk kernel page tables, we can switch the arm64
ptdump code over to using it, simplifying the code.

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - Cleanup of the GOP [graphics output] handling code in the EFI stub

   - Complete refactoring of the mixed mode handling in the x86 EFI stub

   - Overhaul of the x86 EFI boot/runtime code

   - Increase robustness for mixed mode code

   - Add the ability to disable DMA at the root port level in the EFI
     stub

   - Get rid of RWX mappings in the EFI memory map and page tables,
     where possible

   - Move the support code for the old EFI memory mapping style into its
     only user, the SGI UV1+ support code.

   - plus misc fixes, updates, smaller cleanups.

  ... and due to interactions with the RWX changes, another round of PAT
  cleanups make a guest appearance via the EFI tree - with no side
  effects intended"

<title>efi: Fix handling of multiple efi_fake_mem= entries</title>

Dave noticed that when specifying multiple efi_fake_mem= entries only
the last entry was successfully being reflected in the efi memory map.
This is due to the fact that the efi_memmap_insert() is being called
multiple times, but on successive invocations the insertion should be
applied to the last new memmap rather than the original map at
efi_fake_memmap() entry.

Rework efi_fake_memmap() to install the new memory map after each
efi_fake_mem= entry is parsed.

This also fixes an issue in efi_fake_memmap() that caused it to litter
emtpy entries into the end of the efi memory map. An empty entry causes
efi_memmap_insert() to attempt more memmap splits / copies than
efi_memmap_split_count() accounted for when sizing the new map. When
that happens efi_memmap_insert() may overrun its allocation, and if you
are lucky will spill over to an unmapped page leading to crash
signature like the following rather than silent corruption:

    BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff281000
    [..]
    RIP: 0010:efi_memmap_insert+0x11d/0x191
    [..]

Commit af1648984828 "x86/efi: Update e820 with reserved EFI boot
services data to fix kexec breakage" introduced 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 efi_memmap_insert() overruns.

With efi_fake_memmap() and efi_arch_mem_reserve() the efi table may be
updated and replaced multiple times. When that happens a previous
dynamically allocated efi memory map can be garbage collected. Use the
new EFI_MEMMAP_{SLAB,MEMBLOCK} flags to detect when a dynamically
allocated memory map is being replaced.

Debug statements in efi_memmap_free() reveal:

  efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x23ffdd580 size: 2688 flags: 0x2
  efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x9db00 size: 2640 flags: 0x2
  efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x9e580 size: 2640 flags: 0x2

...a savings of 7968 bytes on a qemu boot with 2 entries specified to
efi_fake_mem=.

[ ardb: added a comment to clarify that efi_memmap_free() does nothing when
        called from efi_clean_memmap(), i.e., with data-&gt;flags == 0x0 ]

<title>efi: Add tracking for dynamically allocated memmaps</title>

In preparation for fixing efi_memmap_alloc() leaks, add support for
recording whether the memmap was dynamically allocated from slab,
memblock, or is the original physical memmap provided by the platform.

Given this tracking is established in efi_memmap_alloc() and needs to be
carried to efi_memmap_install(), use 'struct efi_memory_map_data' to
convey the flags.

Some small cleanups result from this reorganization, specifically the
removal of local variables for 'phys' and 'size' that are already
tracked in @data.

In preparation for garbage collecting dynamically allocated EFI memory
maps, where the allocation method of memblock vs slab needs to be
recalled, convert the existing 'late' flag into a 'flags' bitmask.

Arrange for the flag to be passed via 'struct efi_memory_map_data'. This
structure grows additional flags in follow-on changes.
