[patch 0/6] kexec kernel efi runtime support

[patch 0/6] kexec kernel efi runtime support

[dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA]

Hi,

Here is the 1st version for supporting kexec kernel efi runtime.
Per pervious discussion I pass the 1st kernel efi runtime mapping
via setup_data to 2nd kernel. Besides of the runtime mapping
info I also pass the fw_vendor, runtime, config table, smbios
physical address in setup_data. EFI spec mentioned fw_vendor,
runtime, config table addresses will be converted to virt address
after entering virtual mode, but we will use it as physical address
in efi_init. For smbios EFI spec did not mention about the address
updating, but during my test on a HP workstation, the bios will
convert it to Virt addr, thus pass it in setup_data as well.

For fw_vendor, runtime, config table, I export them in /sys/firmware/
efi/systab, smbios is already in that file.

For efi runtime mapping I add a new directory /sys/firmware/efi/
efi-runtime-map/ like below
[dave@darkstar ~]$ tree /sys/firmware/efi/efi-runtime-map/
/sys/firmware/efi/efi-runtime-map/
├── 0
│   ├── attribute
│   ├── num_pages
│   ├── phys_addr
│   ├── type
│   └── virt_addr
├── 1
│   ├── attribute
│   ├── num_pages
│   ├── phys_addr
│   ├── type
│   └── virt_addr
[snip]
 
kexec-tools will assemble them as setup_data and pass to 2nd kernel.
I will send userspace patches as well.

Limitation is I only write support for x86_64, test on below machines:
Lenovo thinkpad t420
Dell inspiron 14 - 3421
HP Z420 workstation
Qemu + OVMF

Please help to review the patches.

The patches are based on linus tree (3.12.0-rc6+) + matt's next tree + bp's efi mapping patches
Boris's last patch can not directly apply, need a little line shifting.

[patch 1/6] Add function efi_remap_region for remapping to saved virt address

[dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA]

[-- Attachment #1: 04-efi-map-fixed-addr.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1971 bytes --]

Kexec kernel will use saved runtime virtual mapping, so add a
new function efi_remap_region to remapping it directly without
calculate the virt addr from efi_va.

The md is passed in from 1st kernel, the virtual addr is
saved in md->virt_addr.

remap? Why?

You did have efi_map_region_fixed() which made more sense.

Let's keep braces on the same line as the function to save space:

void __init efi_remap_region(efi_memory_desc_t *md) {}

remap here means mapping to same virt addr in 2nd kernel, I feel
it's a little better, but I have no strong opinion.

Will change to _fixed

[patch 2/6] x86 efi: reserve boot service fix

[dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA]

[-- Attachment #1: 01-boot-service-fix.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 880 bytes --]

Current code check boot service region with kernel text region by: 
start+size >= __pa_symbol(_text)
The end of the above region should be start + size - 1 instead.

I see this problem in ovmf + Fedora 19 grub boot:
text start: 1000000 md start: 800000 md size: 800000

Well that depends. Dave, am I correct in thinking that you only noticed
this bug when writing kexec support? I'm inclined not to bother with a
stable tag if no one has ever noticed any fallout from this bug until
now.

There should be some people see below message with non-kexec kernel:
"Could not reserve boot range ..."
But it's hard for them to notice the bad functionality because it's only
one mem range which might be not the boot range what SetVirtualAddressMap need

I can find one other report like that: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/16/309

[    0.000000] efi: Could not reserve boot range [0x0000000000-0x0000000fff]

for

efi: mem00: type=3, attr=0xf, range=[0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000001000) (0MB)

which is EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE and

efi: Could not reserve boot range [0x000005f000-0x000009ffff]

for

efi: mem06: type=3, attr=0xf, range=[0x000000000005f000-0x00000000000a0000) (0MB)

which is of the same type.

But that doesn't look like the issue that the user was complaining
about. Rather, it's that the higher EFI regions are unable to be mapped
because of the user's mem= kernel parameter setting.

However, even though this bug isn't the main focus of the above report,
since people are hitting it (and since the fix is trivial), I agree it's
worth tagging for stable.

Add two small functions:
efi_merge_regions and efi_map_regions, efi_enter_virtual_mode
calls them instead of embedding two long for loop.

Cleanup efi_enter_virtual_mode function

Add two small functions:
efi_merge_regions and efi_map_regions, efi_enter_virtual_mode
calls them instead of embedding two long for loop.

Still doesn't work:

$ patch -p1 --dry-run -i /tmp/02-efi-enter-virtual-mode-cleanup-1.patch.new 
checking file arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 788 (offset -1 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 821 (offset -1 lines).
Hunk #3 FAILED at 853.

I'm using Matt's next branch + my efi runtime branch. What are you
basing your stuff ontop?

I use linus tree, git pull Matt's efi-next tree, then apply your 12 patches
and my patches. I applied your previous 11 patches + the last update patch
12/12, but the last one does not apply, I manually shift a hunk to make it
apply.

Nope, still doesn't apply.

patch -p1 --dry-run -i ~/efi/dy/03-efi-enter-virtual-mode-cleanup.patch 
checking file arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 788 (offset -1 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 821 (offset -1 lines).
Hunk #3 FAILED at 853.
1 out of 3 hunks FAILED

and this time I took your patches from here: https://people.redhat.com/ruyang/kexec-efi/for-bp/kernel-patches/

What I did is:

1. I took Linus' tree from today

2. Merged the 'next' branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi.git. Mind
you, not the 'efi-next' tag!

3. Then I merged the 'efi' branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp.git ontop.
It gave a simple merge conflict which is trivial to resolve:
http://paste.debian.net/62579/

Here I started applying your patches and the 3rd one still fails.

I used the above tree origin/next branch

I used the patches from mailbox directly.
Fixed an conflict and merge them one by one.

I remember I tried your efi branch, but the code is different
from what you sent to list, thus I turned to use the mbox patches.

Yeah, please use the #efi branch as I keep refreshing it with the newest
changes. They're hopefully not serious changes but minor stuff here and
there so basing stuff ontop should be ok.

Will try, but please keep the posted patches in mailing list up-to-date,
I'm an old-fashioned person, do not tend to depend on git.

Really? You should change that - you're missing out on so much by not

Thanks, do not bother to send me privately I can get it from your git tree.

But Frankly I'd like to see them in list instead even with only small fixes
beacuse in this way there might be more people to review it carefully.

There's another shorcoming for keeping new patches in git is that nobody know
when you push it and when is the proper date to pull from your git. I think
it's better to use git only for the patches which have already been accepted
and is waiting for maintainer to pull.

thank you for teaching me how to do kernel development!

The actual and real reason why I didn't send them yet is because I
didn't want to be that kaffeine-inflated dork who spams the lists every
other day with a new version of his patches.

I am running build smoketests now and will send the latest version of
the patchset later today so don't worry, the world will see them :)

I need remind myself about careless patch, I used to do that before :(

Great, thank you. BTW, I have managed to test original patch set on a

Ok, that's actually a very good news - the apples tend to be special wrt

[patch 5/6] export efi runtime memory mapping to sysfs

[dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA]

[-- Attachment #1: 03-export-efi-runtime-mapping.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 8313 bytes --]

kexec kernel will need exactly same mapping for
efi runtime memory ranges. Thus here export the
runtime ranges mapping to sysfs, kexec-tools
will assemble them and pass to 2nd kernel via
setup_data.

Introducing a new directly /sys/firmware/efi/efi-runtime-map
Just like /sys/firmware/memmap. Containing below attribute
in each file of that directory:
attribute  num_pages  phys_addr  type  virt_addr

It will not work for efi 32bit. Only x86_64 currently.

Remind myself: add below to Documentaion in next version:
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-efi-runtime-map

[patch 6/6] passing kexec necessary efi data via setup_data

[dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA]

[-- Attachment #1: 05-use-efi-setup-data.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 8442 bytes --]

Add a new setup_data type SETUP_EFI for kexec use.
Passing the saved fw_vendor, runtime, config tables and
efi runtime mappings.

When entering virtual mode, directly mapping the efi
runtime ragions which we passed in previously. And skip
the step to call SetVirtualAddressMap.

Specially for HP z420 workstation it need another variable
saving, it's the smbios physical address, the HP bios
also update the SMBIOS address after entering virtual mode
besides of the standard fw_vendor,runtime and config table.

Tested on ovmf+qemu, lenovo thinkpad, a dell laptop and an
HP z420 workstation.
