The EFI runtime map code is only wired up on x86, which is the only
architecture that has a need for it in its implementation of kexec.
So let's move this code under arch/x86 and drop all references to it
from generic code. To ensure that the efi_runtime_map_init() is invoked
at the appropriate time use a 'sync' subsys_initcall() that will be
called right after the EFI initcall made from generic code where the
original invocation of efi_runtime_map_init() resided.

The current Kconfig logic for CONFIG_EFI_RUNTIME_MAPS does not convey
that without it, a kexec kernel is not able to boot in EFI mode at all.
So clarify this, and make the option only configurable via the menu
system if CONFIG_EXPERT is set.

By default, the efi-pstore backend hardcode the UEFI variable size
as 1024 bytes. The historical reasons for that were discussed by
Ard in threads [0][1]:
"there is some cargo cult from prehistoric EFI times going
on here, it seems. Or maybe just misinterpretation of the maximum
size for the variable *name* vs the variable itself.".
"OVMF has
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc:
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMaxVariableSize|0x2000
OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc:
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMaxVariableSize|0x8400
where the first one is without secure boot and the second with secure
boot. Interestingly, the default is
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdMaxVariableSize|0x400
so this is probably where this 1k number comes from."
With that, and since there is not such a limit in the UEFI spec, we
have the confidence to hereby add a module parameter to enable advanced
users to change the UEFI record size for efi-pstore data collection,
this way allowing a much easier reading of the collected log, which
wouldn't be scattered anymore among many small files.
Through empirical analysis we observed that extreme low values (like 8
bytes) could eventually cause writing issues, so given that and the OVMF
default discussed, we limited the minimum value to 1024 bytes, which also
is still the default.

Currently, the EFI_PARAVIRT flag is only used by Xen dom0 boot on x86,
even though other architectures also support pseudo-EFI boot, where the
core kernel is invoked directly and provided with a set of data tables
that resemble the ones constructed by the EFI stub, which never actually
runs in that case.
Let's fix this inconsistency, and always set this flag when booting dom0
via the EFI boot path. Note that Xen on x86 does not provide the EFI
memory map in this case, whereas other architectures do, so move the
associated EFI_PARAVIRT check into the x86 platform code.

The EFI memory map is a description of the memory layout as provided by

The EFI fake memmap support is specific to x86, which manipulates the
EFI memory map in various different ways after receiving it from the EFI
stub. On other architectures, we have managed to push back on this, and
the EFI memory map is kept pristine.
So let's move the fake memmap code into the x86 arch tree, where it
arguably belongs.

The initrd= command line loader can be useful for development, but it
was limited to loading files from the same file system as the loaded
kernel (and it didn't work on x86 mixed mode).
As both issues have been fixed, and the initrd= can now be used with
files residing on any simple file system exposed by the EFI firmware,
let's permit it to be enabled on RISC-V and LoongArch, which did not
support it up to this point.
Note that LoadFile2 remains the preferred option, as it is much simpler
to use and implement, but generic loaders (including the UEFI shell) may
not implement this so there, initrd= can now be used as well (if enabled
in the build)

Rework the EFI stub macro wrappers around protocol method calls and
other indirect calls in order to allow return types other than
efi_status_t. This means the widening should be conditional on whether
or not the return type is efi_status_t, and should be omitted otherwise.
Also, switch to _Generic() to implement the type based compile time
conditionals, which is more concise, and distinguishes between
efi_status_t and u64 properly.

Currently, the initrd= command line option to the EFI stub only supports
loading files that reside on the same volume as the loaded image, which
is not workable for loaders like GRUB that don't even implement the
volume abstraction (EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL), and load the
kernel from an anonymous buffer in memory. For this reason, another
method was devised that relies on the LoadFile2 protocol.
However, the command line loader is rather useful when using the UEFI
shell or other generic loaders that have no awareness of Linux specific
protocols so let's make it a bit more flexible, by permitting textual
device paths to be provided to initrd= as well, provided that they refer
to a file hosted on a EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL volume. E.g.,
initrd=PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/HD(1,MBR,0xBE1AFDFA,0x3F,0xFBFC1)/rootfs.cpio.gz

The EFI spec is not very clear about which permissions are being given
when allocating pages of a certain type. However, it is quite obvious
that EFI_LOADER_CODE is more likely to permit execution than
EFI_LOADER_DATA, which becomes relevant once we permit booting the
kernel proper with the firmware's 1:1 mapping still active.
Ostensibly, recent systems such as the Surface Pro X grant executable
permissions to EFI_LOADER_CODE regions but not EFI_LOADER_DATA regions.

Ampere Altra machines are reported to misbehave when the SetTime() EFI
runtime service is called after ExitBootServices() but before calling
SetVirtualAddressMap(). Given that the latter is horrid, pointless and
explicitly documented as optional by the EFI spec, we no longer invoke
it at boot if the configured size of the VA space guarantees that the
EFI runtime memory regions can remain mapped 1:1 like they are at boot
time.
On Ampere Altra machines, this results in SetTime() calls issued by the
rtc-efi driver triggering synchronous exceptions during boot. We can
now recover from those without bringing down the system entirely, due to
commit 23715a26c8d81291 ("arm64: efi: Recover from synchronous
exceptions occurring in firmware"). However, it would be better to avoid
the issue entirely, given that the firmware appears to remain in a funny
state after this.
So attempt to identify these machines based on the 'family' field in the
type #1 SMBIOS record, and call SetVirtualAddressMap() unconditionally
in that case.

Enable asynchronous unwind table generation for both the core kernel as

Even though our EFI zboot decompressor is pedantically spec compliant
and idiomatic for EFI image loaders, calling LoadImage() and
StartImage() for the nested image is a bit of a burden. Not only does it
create workflow issues for the distros (as both the inner and outer
PE/COFF images need to be signed for secure boot), it also copies the
image around in memory numerous times:
- first, the image is decompressed into a buffer;
- the buffer is consumed by LoadImage(), which copies the sections into
a newly allocated memory region to hold the executable image;
- once the EFI stub is invoked by StartImage(), it will also move the
image in memory in case of KASLR, mirrored memory or if the image must
execute from a certain a priori defined address.
There are only two EFI spec compliant ways to load code into memory and
execute it:
- use LoadImage() and StartImage(),
- call ExitBootServices() and take ownership of the entire system, after
which anything goes.
Given that the EFI zboot decompressor always invokes the EFI stub, and
given that both are built from the same set of objects, let's merge the
two, so that we can avoid LoadImage()/StartImage but still load our
image into memory without breaking the above rules.
This also means we can decompress the image directly into its final
location, which could be randomized or meet other platform specific
constraints that LoadImage() does not know how to adhere to. It also
means that, even if the encapsulated image still has the EFI stub
incorporated as well, it does not need to be signed for secure boot when
wrapping it in the EFI zboot decompressor.
In the future, we might decide to retire the EFI stub attached to the
decompressed image, but for the time being, they can happily coexist.

The LoongArch build of the EFI stub is part of the core kernel image, and
therefore accesses section markers directly when it needs to figure out
the size of the various section.
The zboot decompressor does not have access to those symbols, but
doesn't really need that either. So let's move handle_kernel_image()
into a separate file (or rather, move everything else into a separate
file) so that the zboot build does not pull in unused code that links to
symbols that it does not define.

Currently, the EFI entry code for LoongArch is set up to copy the
executable image to the preferred offset, but instead of branching
directly into that image, it branches to the local copy of kernel_entry,
and relies on the logic in that function to switch to the link time
address instead.
This is a bit sloppy, and not something we can support once we merge the
EFI decompressor with the EFI stub. So let's clean this up a bit, by
adding a helper that computes the offset of kernel_entry from the start
of the image, and simply adding the result to VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS.
And considering that we cannot execute from anywhere else anyway, let's
avoid efi_relocate_kernel() and just allocate the pages instead.

In order to be able to switch from LoadImage() [which treats the
supplied PE/COFF image as file input only, and reconstructs the memory
image based on the section descriptors] to a mode where we allocate the
memory directly, and invoke the image in place, we need to now how much
memory to allocate beyond the end of the image. So copy this information
from the payload's PE/COFF header to the end of the compressed version
of the payload, so that the decompressor app can access it before
performing the decompression itself.
We'll also need to size of the code region once we switch arm64 to
jumping to the kernel proper with MMU and caches enabled, so let's
capture that information as well. Note that SizeOfCode does not account
for the header, so we need SizeOfHeaders as well.

Commit 8a254d90a775 ("efi: efivars: Fix variable writes without

the EFI variable store refactor, where alternative implementations of
the efivars layer that lacked query_variable_store() would no longer

Unfortunately, there is another case to consider here, which was missed:
if the efivars layer is backed by the EFI runtime services as usual, but
the EFI implementation predates the introduction of QueryVariableInfo(),
we will return EFI_UNSUPPORTED, and this is no longer being dealt with
correctly.
So let's fix this, and while at it, clean up the code a bit, by merging

EFI runtime services data is guaranteed to be preserved by the OS,
making it a suitable candidate for the EFI random seed table, which may
be passed to kexec kernels as well (after refreshing the seed), and so
we need to ensure that the memory is preserved without support from the
OS itself.
However, runtime services data is intended for allocations that are
relevant to the implementations of the runtime services themselves, and
so they are unmapped from the kernel linear map, and mapped into the EFI
page tables that are active while runtime service invocations are in
progress. None of this is needed for the RNG seed.
So let's switch to EFI 'ACPI reclaim' memory: in spite of the name,
there is nothing exclusively ACPI about it, it is simply a type of
allocation that carries firmware provided data which may or may not be
relevant to the OS, and it is left up to the OS to decide whether to
reclaim it after having consumed its contents.
Given that in Linux, we never reclaim these allocations, it is a good
choice for the EFI RNG seed, as the allocation is guaranteed to survive
kexec reboots.
One additional reason for changing this now is to align it with the
upcoming recommendation for EFI bootloader provided RNG seeds, which
must not use EFI runtime services code/data allocations.

The generic EFI stub can be instructed to avoid SetVirtualAddressMap(),
and simply run with the firmware's 1:1 mapping. In this case, it
populates the virtual address fields of the runtime regions in the
memory map with the physical address of each region, so that the mapping
code has to be none the wiser. Only if SetVirtualAddressMap() fails, the
virtual addresses are wiped and the kernel code knows that the regions
cannot be mapped.
However, wiping amounts to setting it to zero, and if a runtime region
happens to live at physical address 0, its valid 1:1 mapped virtual
address could be mistaken for a wiped field, resulting on loss of access
to the EFI services at runtime.
So let's only assume that VA == 0 means 'no runtime services' if the
region in question does not live at PA 0x0.

Commit bbc6d2c6ef22 ("efi: vars: Switch to new wrapper layer")

This inadvertently broke setting variables on firmware implementations
that lack the QueryVariableInfo() boot service, because we no longer

efivar_entry_set_get_size(), which now ends up calling check_var_size()
a second time inadvertently.
If QueryVariableInfo() is missing, we support writes of up to 64k -

call.

The zboot decompressor series introduced a feature to sign the PE/COFF
kernel image for secure boot as part of the kernel build. This was
necessary because there are actually two images that need to be signed:
the kernel with the EFI stub attached, and the decompressor application.
This is a bit of a burden, because it means that the images must be
signed on the the same system that performs the build, and this is not
realistic for distros.
During the next cycle, we will introduce changes to the zboot code so
that the inner image no longer needs to be signed. This means that the
outer PE/COFF image can be handled as usual, and be signed later in the
release process.
Let's remove the associated Kconfig options now so that they don't end
up in a LTS release while already being deprecated.

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"A bit more going on than usual in the EFI subsystem. The main driver
for this has been the introduction of the LoonArch architecture last
cycle, which inspired some cleanup and refactoring of the EFI code.
Another driver for EFI changes this cycle and in the future is
confidential compute.
The LoongArch architecture does not use either struct bootparams or DT
natively [yet], and so passing information between the EFI stub and
the core kernel using either of those is undesirable. And in general,
overloading DT has been a source of issues on arm64, so using DT for
this on new architectures is a to avoid for the time being (even if we
might converge on something DT based for non-x86 architectures in the
future). For this reason, in addition to the patch that enables EFI
boot for LoongArch, there are a number of refactoring patches applied
on top of which separate the DT bits from the generic EFI stub bits.
These changes are on a separate topich branch that has been shared
with the LoongArch maintainers, who will include it in their pull
request as well. This is not ideal, but the best way to manage the
conflicts without stalling LoongArch for another cycle.
Another development inspired by LoongArch is the newly added support
for EFI based decompressors. Instead of adding yet another
arch-specific incarnation of this pattern for LoongArch, we are
introducing an EFI app based on the existing EFI libstub
infrastructure that encapulates the decompression code we use on other
architectures, but in a way that is fully generic. This has been
developed and tested in collaboration with distro and systemd folks,
who are eager to start using this for systemd-boot and also for arm64
secure boot on Fedora. Note that the EFI zimage files this introduces
can also be decompressed by non-EFI bootloaders if needed, as the
image header describes the location of the payload inside the image,
and the type of compression that was used. (Note that Fedora's arm64
GRUB is buggy [0] so you'll need a recent version or switch to
systemd-boot in order to use this.)
Finally, we are adding TPM measurement of the kernel command line
provided by EFI. There is an oversight in the TCG spec which results
in a blind spot for command line arguments passed to loaded images,
which means that either the loader or the stub needs to take the
measurement. Given the combinatorial explosion I am anticipating when
it comes to firmware/bootloader stacks and firmware based attestation
protocols (SEV-SNP, TDX, DICE, DRTM), it is good to set a baseline now
when it comes to EFI measured boot, which is that the kernel measures
the initrd and command line. Intermediate loaders can measure
additional assets if needed, but with the baseline in place, we can
deploy measured boot in a meaningful way even if you boot into Linux
straight from the EFI firmware.
Summary:
- implement EFI boot support for LoongArch
- implement generic EFI compressed boot support for arm64, RISC-V and
LoongArch, none of which implement a decompressor today
- measure the kernel command line into the TPM if measured boot is in
effect
- refactor the EFI stub code in order to isolate DT dependencies for
architectures other than x86
- avoid calling SetVirtualAddressMap() on arm64 if the configured
size of the VA space guarantees that doing so is unnecessary
- move some ARM specific code out of the generic EFI source files
- unmap kernel code from the x86 mixed mode 1:1 page tables"

Pull kcfi updates from Kees Cook:
"This replaces the prior support for Clang's standard Control Flow
Integrity (CFI) instrumentation, which has required a lot of special
conditions (e.g. LTO) and work-arounds.
The new implementation ("Kernel CFI") is specific to C, directly
designed for the Linux kernel, and takes advantage of architectural
features like x86's IBT. This series retains arm64 support and adds
x86 support.
GCC support is expected in the future[1], and additional "generic"
architectural support is expected soon[2].
