We're currently passing the file handle for the root file system to
efi_file_read() and efi_file_close(), instead of the file handle for the
file we wish to read/close.
While this has worked up until now, it seems that it has only been by
pure luck. Olivier explains,
"The issue is the UEFI Fat driver might return the same function for
'fh->read()' and 'h->read()'. While in our case it does not work with
a different implementation of EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL. In our
case, we return a different pointer when reading a directory and
reading a file."
Fixing this actually clears up the two functions because we can drop one
of the arguments, and instead only pass a file 'handle' argument.

code32_start should point at the start of the protected mode code, and
*not* at the beginning of the bzImage. This is much easier to do in
assembly so document that callers of make_boot_params() need to fill out
code32_start.
The fallout from this bug is that we would end up relocating the image
but copying the image at some offset, resulting in what appeared to be
memory corruption.

commit 54b52d872680 ("x86/efi: Build our own EFI services pointer
table") introduced a regression because the 64-bit file_size()
implementation passed a pointer to a 32-bit data object, instead of a
pointer to a 64-bit object.
Because the firmware treats the object as 64-bits regardless it was
reading random values from the stack for the upper 32-bits.
This resulted in people being unable to boot their machines, after
seeing the following error messages,
Failed to get file info size
Failed to alloc highmem for files

The ARM EFI boot stub doesn't need to care about the efi_early
infrastructure that x86 requires in order to do mixed mode thunking. So
wrap everything up in an efi_call_early() macro.
This allows x86 to do the necessary indirection jumps to call whatever
firmware interface is necessary (native or mixed mode), but also allows
the ARM folks to mask the fact that they don't support relocation in the
boot stub and need to pass 'sys_table_arg' to every function.

Dan reported that phys_efi_get_time() is doing kmalloc(..., GFP_KERNEL)
under a spinlock which is very clearly a bug. Since phys_efi_get_time()
has no users let's just delete it instead of trying to fix it.
Note that since there are no users of phys_efi_get_time(), it is not
possible to actually trigger a GFP_KERNEL alloc under the spinlock.

I was triggering a #GP(0) from userland when running with
CONFIG_EFI_MIXED and CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION, from what looked like
register corruption. Turns out that the mixed mode code was trashing the
contents of %ds, %es and %ss in __efi64_thunk().
Save and restore the contents of these segment registers across the call
to __efi64_thunk() so that we don't corrupt the CPU context.

The trace_do_page_fault function trigger tracepoint
and then handles the actual page fault.
This could lead to error if the tracepoint caused page
fault. The original cr2 value gets lost and the original
page fault handler kills current process with SIGSEGV.
This happens if you record page faults with callchain
data, the user part of it will cause tracepoint handler
to page fault:
# perf record -g -e exceptions:page_fault_user ls
Fixing this by saving the original cr2 value
and using it after tracepoint handler is done.
v2: Moving the cr2 read before exception_enter, because
it could trigger tracepoint as well.

Some firmware appears to enable interrupts during boot service calls,
even if we've explicitly disabled them prior to the call. This is
actually allowed per the UEFI spec because boottime services expect to
be called with interrupts enabled.
So that's fine, we just need to ensure that we disable them again in
efi_enter32() before switching to a 64-bit GDT, otherwise an interrupt
may fire causing a 32-bit IRQ handler to run after we've left
compatibility mode.
Despite efi_enter32() being called both for boottime and runtime
services, this really only affects boottime because the runtime services
callchain is executed with interrupts disabled. See efi_thunk().

Add the Kconfig option and bump the kernel header version so that boot
loaders can check whether the handover code is available if they want.
The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits.
Note that no boot loaders should be using the bits set in xloadflags to
decide which entry point to jump to. The entire scheme is based on the
concept that 32-bit bootloaders always jump to ->handover_offset and
64-bit loaders always jump to ->handover_offset + 512. We set both bits
merely to inform the boot loader that it's safe to use the native
handover offset even if the machine type in the PE/COFF header claims
otherwise.

Setup the runtime services based on whether we're booting in EFI native
mode or not. For non-native mode we need to thunk from 64-bit into
32-bit mode before invoking the EFI runtime services.
Using the runtime services after SetVirtualAddressMap() is slightly more
complicated because we need to ensure that all the addresses we pass to
the firmware are below the 4GB boundary so that they can be addressed
with 32-bit pointers, see efi_setup_page_tables().

The EFI handover code only works if the "bitness" of the firmware and
the kernel match, i.e. 64-bit firmware and 64-bit kernel - it is not
possible to mix the two. This goes against the tradition that a 32-bit
kernel can be loaded on a 64-bit BIOS platform without having to do
anything special in the boot loader. Linux distributions, for one thing,
regularly run only 32-bit kernels on their live media.
Despite having only one 'handover_offset' field in the kernel header,
EFI boot loaders use two separate entry points to enter the kernel based
on the architecture the boot loader was compiled for,
(1) 32-bit loader: handover_offset
(2) 64-bit loader: handover_offset + 512
Since we already have two entry points, we can leverage them to infer
the bitness of the firmware we're running on, without requiring any boot
loader modifications, by making (1) and (2) valid entry points for both
CONFIG_X86_32 and CONFIG_X86_64 kernels.
To be clear, a 32-bit boot loader will always use (1) and a 64-bit boot
loader will always use (2). It's just that, if a single kernel image
supports (1) and (2) that image can be used with both 32-bit and 64-bit
boot loaders, and hence both 32-bit and 64-bit EFI.
(1) and (2) must be 512 bytes apart at all times, but that is already
part of the boot ABI and we could never change that delta without
breaking existing boot loaders anyhow.

Implement the transition code to go from IA32e mode to protected mode in
the EFI boot stub. This is required to use 32-bit EFI services from a
64-bit kernel.
Since EFI boot stub is executed in an identity-mapped region, there's
not much we need to do before invoking the 32-bit EFI boot services.
However, we do reload the firmware's global descriptor table
(efi32_boot_gdt) in case things like timer events are still running in
the firmware.

It's not possible to dereference the EFI System table directly when
booting a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit EFI firmware because the size of
pointers don't match.

converting pointer sizes through multiple levels of indirection.

There's no good reason to keep efi_enabled() under CONFIG_X86 anymore,
since nothing about the implementation is specific to x86.
Set EFI feature flags in the ia64 boot path instead of claiming to
support all features. The old behaviour was actually buggy since
efi.memmap never points to a valid memory map, so we shouldn't be
claiming to support EFI_MEMMAP.
Fortunately, this bug was never triggered because EFI_MEMMAP isn't used
outside of arch/x86 currently, but that may not always be the case.

Currently, running SetVirtualAddressMap() and passing the physical
address of the virtual map array was working only by a lucky coincidence
because the memory was present in the EFI page table too. Until Toshi
went and booted this on a big HP box - the krealloc() manner of resizing
the memmap we're doing did allocate from such physical addresses which
were not mapped anymore and boom:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1386806463.1791.295.camel@misato.fc.hp.com
One way to take care of that issue is to reimplement the krealloc thing
but with pages. We start with contiguous pages of order 1, i.e. 2 pages,
and when we deplete that memory (shouldn't happen all that often but you
know firmware) we realloc the next power-of-two pages.
Having the pages, it is much more handy and easy to map them into the
EFI page table with the already existing mapping code which we're using
for building the virtual mappings.
Thanks to Toshi Kani and Matt for the great debugging help.

As we grow support for more EFI architectures they're going to want the
ability to query which EFI features are available on the running system.
Instead of storing this information in an architecture-specific place,
stick it in the global 'struct efi', which is already the central
location for EFI state.
While we're at it, let's change the return value of efi_enabled() to be
bool and replace all references to 'facility' with 'feature', which is
the usual word used to describe the attributes of the running system.

Page table entries on ARM64 are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as
pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the
flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run
into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast.
For example:
gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1);
where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int.
This patch adds a double logical invert to all the pte_ accessors to
ensure predictable downcasting.

The PHB diag-data is important to help locating the root cause for
EEH errors such as frozen PE or fenced PHB. However, the EEH core
enables IO path by clearing part of HW registers before collecting
this data causing it to be corrupted.
This patch fixes this by dumping the PHB diag-data immediately when
frozen/fenced state on PE or PHB is detected for the first time in
eeh_ops::get_state() or next_error() backend.

The new ELFv2 little-endian ABI increases the stack redzone -- the
area below the stack pointer that can be used for storing data --
from 288 bytes to 512 bytes. This means that we need to allow more
space on the user stack when delivering a signal to a 64-bit process.
To make the code a bit clearer, we define new USER_REDZONE_SIZE and
KERNEL_REDZONE_SIZE symbols in ptrace.h. For now, we leave the
kernel redzone size at 288 bytes, since increasing it to 512 bytes
would increase the size of interrupt stack frames correspondingly.
Gcc currently only makes use of 288 bytes of redzone even when
compiling for the new little-endian ABI, and the kernel cannot
currently be compiled with the new ABI anyway.
In the future, hopefully gcc will provide an option to control the
amount of redzone used, and then we could reduce it even more.
This also changes the code in arch_compat_alloc_user_space() to
preserve the expanded redzone. It is not clear why this function would
ever be used on a 64-bit process, though.
