commit 5c1ac56b51b9d222ab202dec1ac2f4215346129d upstream.

In function dmi_present(), dmi_walk_early() calls dmi_table(), which
calls dmi_decode(), which ultimately calls dmi_save_uuid(). This last
function makes a decision based on the value of global variable
dmi_ver. The problem is that this variable is set right _after_
dmi_walk_early() returns. So dmi_save_uuid() always sees dmi_ver == 0
regardless of the actual version implemented.

This causes /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid to always use the old
ordering even on systems implementing DMI/SMBIOS 2.6 or later, which
should use the new ordering.

This is broken since kernel v3.8 for legacy DMI implementations and
since kernel v3.10 for SMBIOS 2 implementations. SMBIOS 3
implementations with the 64-bit entry point are not affected.

The first breakage does not matter much as in practice legacy DMI
implementations are always for versions older than 2.6, which is when
the UUID ordering changed. The second breakage is more problematic as
it affects the vast majority of x86 systems manufactured since 2009.

dmi_num is a u16, dmi_len is a u32, so this construct:

	dmi_num = dmi_len / 4;

would result in an integer overflow for a DMI table larger than
256 kB. I've never see such a large table so far, but SMBIOS 3.0
makes it possible so maybe we'll see such tables in the future.

So instead of faking a structure count when the entry point does
not provide it, adjust the loop condition in dmi_table() to properly
deal with the case where dmi_num is not set.

This bug was introduced with the initial SMBIOS 3.0 support in commit
fc43026278b2 ("dmi: add support for SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point").

According to SMBIOSv3 specification the length of DMI table can be
up to 32bits wide. So use appropriate type to avoid overflow.

It's obvious that dmi_num theoretically can be more than u16 also,
so it's can be changed to u32 or at least it's better to use int
instead of u16, but on that moment I cannot imagine dmi structure
count more than 65535 and it can require changing type of vars that
work with it. So I didn't correct it.

While adding support loading kernel and initrd above 4G to grub2 in legacy
mode, I was referring to efi_high_alloc().
That will allocate buffer for kernel and then initrd, and initrd will
use kernel buffer start as limit.

During testing found two buffers will be overlapped when initrd size is
very big like 400M.

It turns out efi_high_alloc() boundary checking is not right.
end - size will be the new start, and should not compare new
start with max, we need to make sure end is smaller than max.

[ Basically, with the current efi_high_alloc() code it's possible to
  allocate memory above 'max', because efi_high_alloc() doesn't check
  that the tail of the allocation is below 'max'.

  If you have an EFI memory map with a single entry that looks like so,

   [0xc0000000-0xc0004000]

  And want to allocate 0x3000 bytes below 0xc0003000 the current code
  will allocate [0xc0001000-0xc0004000], not [0xc0000000-0xc0003000]
  like you would expect. - Matt ]

The dmi-sysfs should create "End of Table" entry, that is type 127. But
after adding initial SMBIOS v3 support fc43026278b2 ("dmi: add support
for SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point") the 127-0 entry is not handled any
more, as result it's not created in dmi sysfs for instance. This is
important because the size of whole DMI table must correspond to sum of
all DMI entry sizes.

So move the end-of-table check after it's handled by dmi_table.

This reverts commit d1a8d66b9177105e898e73716f97eb61842c457a.

Ard reported a boot failure when running UEFI under Qemu and Xen and
experimenting with various Tianocore build options,

 "As it turns out, when allocating room for the UEFI memory map using
  UEFI's AllocatePool (), it may result in two new memory map entries
  being created, for instance, when using Tianocore's preallocated region
  feature. For example, the following region

  0x00005ead5000-0x00005ebfffff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]

  may be split like this

  0x00005ead5000-0x00005eae2fff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]
  0x00005eae3000-0x00005eae4fff [Loader Data        |   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]
  0x00005eae5000-0x00005ebfffff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]

  if the preallocated Loader Data region was chosen to be right in the
  middle of the original free space.

  After patch d1a8d66b9177 ("efi/libstub: Call get_memory_map() to
  obtain map and desc sizes"), this is not being dealt with correctly
  anymore, as the existing logic to allocate room for a single additional
  entry has become insufficient."

Mark requested to reinstate the old loop we had before commit
d1a8d66b9177, which grows the memory map buffer until it's big enough to
hold the EFI memory map.

This reverts commit d1a8d66b9177105e898e73716f97eb61842c457a.

Ard reported a boot failure when running UEFI under Qemu and Xen and
experimenting with various Tianocore build options,

 "As it turns out, when allocating room for the UEFI memory map using
  UEFI's AllocatePool (), it may result in two new memory map entries
  being created, for instance, when using Tianocore's preallocated region
  feature. For example, the following region

  0x00005ead5000-0x00005ebfffff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]

  may be split like this

  0x00005ead5000-0x00005eae2fff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]
  0x00005eae3000-0x00005eae4fff [Loader Data        |   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]
  0x00005eae5000-0x00005ebfffff [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |WB|WT|WC|UC]

  if the preallocated Loader Data region was chosen to be right in the
  middle of the original free space.

  After patch d1a8d66b9177 ("efi/libstub: Call get_memory_map() to
  obtain map and desc sizes"), this is not being dealt with correctly
  anymore, as the existing logic to allocate room for a single additional
  entry has become insufficient."

Mark requested to reinstate the old loop we had before commit
d1a8d66b9177, which grows the memory map buffer until it's big enough to
hold the EFI memory map.

<title>x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for memset/memmove/memcpy functions</title>

Recently instrumentation of builtin functions calls was removed from GCC
5.0.  To check the memory accessed by such functions, userspace asan
always uses interceptors for them.

So now we should do this as well.  This patch declares
memset/memmove/memcpy as weak symbols.  In mm/kasan/kasan.c we have our
own implementation of those functions which checks memory before accessing
it.

Default memset/memmove/memcpy now now always have aliases with '__'
prefix.  For files that built without kasan instrumentation (e.g.
mm/slub.c) original mem* replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants,
cause we don't want to check memory accesses there.
