Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] efi: efi_mem_reserve(): don't reserve through memblock after mm_init()
Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2016 11:23:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161222102340.2689-2-nicstange@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161222102340.2689-1-nicstange@gmail.com>
Before invoking the arch specific handler, efi_mem_reserve() reserves
the given memory region through memblock.
efi_mem_reserve() can get called after mm_init() though -- through
efi_bgrt_init(), for example. After mm_init(), memblock is dead and should
not be used anymore.
Let efi_mem_reserve() check whether memblock is dead and not do the
reservation if so. Emit a warning from the generic efi_arch mem_reserve()
in this case: if the architecture doesn't provide any other means of
registering the region as reserved, the operation would be a nop.
Fixes: 4bc9f92e64c8 ("x86/efi-bgrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() to avoid copying image data")
