firmware: dmi_scan: Fix handling of empty DMI strings

2018-05-30T05:50:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit a7770ae194569e96a93c48aceb304edded9cc648 ]

The handling of empty DMI strings looks quite broken to me:
* Strings from 1 to 7 spaces are not considered empty.
* True empty DMI strings (string index set to 0) are not considered
  empty, and result in allocating a 0-char string.
* Strings with invalid index also result in allocating a 0-char
  string.
* Strings starting with 8 spaces are all considered empty, even if
  non-space characters follow (sounds like a weird thing to do, but
  I have actually seen occurrences of this in DMI tables before.)
* Strings which are considered empty are reported as 8 spaces,
  instead of being actually empty.

Some of these issues are the result of an off-by-one error in memcmp,
the rest is incorrect by design.

So let's get it square: missing strings and strings made of only
spaces, regardless of their length, should be treated as empty and
no memory should be allocated for them. All other strings are
non-empty and should be allocated.

firmware/psci: Expose SMCCC version through psci_ops

2018-04-20T06:21:05+00:00

From: Marc Zyngier 

commit e78eef554a912ef6c1e0bbf97619dafbeae3339f upstream.

Since PSCI 1.0 allows the SMCCC version to be (indirectly) probed,
let's do that at boot time, and expose the version of the calling
convention as part of the psci_ops structure.

In order to call into the firmware to apply workarounds, it is
useful to find out whether we're using HVC or SMC. Let's expose
this through the psci_ops.

drivers/firmware: Expose psci_get_version through psci_ops structure

2018-04-20T06:20:43+00:00

From: Will Deacon 

commit d68e3ba5303f7e1099f51fdcd155f5263da8569b upstream.

Entry into recent versions of ARM Trusted Firmware will invalidate the CPU
branch predictor state in order to protect against aliasing attacks.

This patch exposes the PSCI "VERSION" function via psci_ops, so that it
can be invoked outside of the PSCI driver where necessary.

efi/esrt: Cleanup bad memory map log messages

2017-12-20T09:07:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 822f5845f710e57d7e2df1fd1ee00d6e19d334fe ]

The Intel Compute Stick STCK1A8LFC and Weibu F3C platforms both
log 2 error messages during boot:

   efi: requested map not found.
   esrt: ESRT header is not in the memory map.

Searching the web, this seems to affect many other platforms too.
Since these messages are logged as errors, they appear on-screen during
the boot process even when using the "quiet" boot parameter used by
distros.

Demote the ESRT error to a warning so that it does not appear on-screen,
and delete the error logging from efi_mem_desc_lookup; both callsites
of that function log more specific messages upon failure.

Out of curiosity I looked closer at the Weibu F3C. There is no entry in
the UEFI-provided memory map which corresponds to the ESRT pointer, but
hacking the code to map it anyway, the ESRT does appear to be valid with
2 entries.

efi/esrt: Use memunmap() instead of kfree() to free the remapping

efi: Move some sysfs files to be read-only by root

2017-12-14T08:28:11+00:00

commit af97a77bc01ce49a466f9d4c0125479e2e2230b6 upstream.

Thanks to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script, it was found that
some EFI values should not be readable by non-root users.

So make them root-only, and to do that, add a __ATTR_RO_MODE() macro to
make this easier, and use it in other places at the same time.

efi/libstub: Skip GOP with PIXEL_BLT_ONLY format

2017-04-21T07:31:20+00:00

commit 540f4c0e894f7e46a66dfa424b16424cbdc12c38 upstream.

The UEFI Specification permits Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) instances
without direct framebuffer access. This is indicated in the Mode structure
with a PixelFormat enumeration value of PIXEL_BLT_ONLY. Given that the
kernel does not know how to drive a Blt() only framebuffer (which is only
permitted before ExitBootServices() anyway), we should disregard such
framebuffers when looking for a GOP instance that is suitable for use as
the boot console.

So modify the EFI GOP initialization to not use a PIXEL_BLT_ONLY instance,
preventing attempts later in boot to use an invalid screen_info.lfb_base
address.

firmware: qcom: scm: Fix interrupted SCM calls

2017-04-12T10:41:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 82bcd087029f6056506ea929f11af02622230901 ]

This patch adds a Qualcomm specific quirk to the arm_smccc_smc call.

On Qualcomm ARM64 platforms, the SMC call can return before it has
completed.  If this occurs, the call can be restarted, but it requires
using the returned session ID value from the interrupted SMC call.

The quirk stores off the session ID from the interrupted call in the
quirk structure so that it can be used by the caller.

This patch folds in a fix given by Sricharan R:

efi/arm: Fix boot crash with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y

2017-03-18T11:14:29+00:00

commit d1eb98143c56f24fef125f5bbed49ae0b52fb7d6 upstream.

On ARM and arm64, we use a dedicated mm_struct to map the UEFI
Runtime Services regions, which allows us to map those regions
on demand, and in a way that is guaranteed to be compatible
with incoming kernels across kexec.

As it turns out, we don't fully initialize the mm_struct in the
same way as process mm_structs are initialized on fork(), which
results in the following crash on ARM if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
is enabled:

  ...
  EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17
  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
  [...]
  Process swapper/0 (pid: 1)
  ...
  __memzero()
  check_and_switch_context()
  virt_efi_get_next_variable()
  efivar_init()
  efivars_sysfs_init()
  do_one_initcall()
  ...

This is due to a missing call to mm_init_cpumask(), so add it.
