[PATCH 0/2][RFC] Introduce "efi_fake_mem_mirror" boot option

[PATCH 0/2][RFC] Introduce "efi_fake_mem_mirror" boot option

[Taku Izumi]

UEFI spec 2.5 introduces new Memory Attribute Definition named
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE which indicates which memory ranges are
mirrored. Now linux kernel can recognize which memory ranges are mirrored
by handling EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE attributes.
However testing this feature necesitates boxes with UEFI spec 2.5 complied
firmware. 

This patchset introduces new boot option named "efi_fake_mem_mirror".
By specifying this parameter, you can mark specific memory as
mirrored memory. This is useful for debugging of Memory Address Range
Mirroring feature.

I'm not keen on using "RELY" because I don't think it's at all obvious
what it means. "RELI" would be closer, but still could use some
improvement.

Since we turned off this kernel output by default (at least on x86)
because the line length had grown quite long, maybe we should just
embrace it and print "RELIABLE" in full?

Since its meaning is not at all obvious even when printing RELIABLE in
full, couldn't we simply use 'MR' instead? You need the UEFI spec to
make sense of this anyway ... (Same goes for RUN btw, perhaps RT would
even be clearer there)

[PATCH 2/2] x86, efi: Add "efi_fake_mem_mirror" boot option

[Taku Izumi]

This patch introduces new boot option named "efi_fake_mem_mirror".
By specifying this parameter, you can mark specific memory as
mirrored memory. This is useful for debugging of Address Range
Mirroring feature.

For example, if you specify "efi_fake_mem_mirror=2G@4G,2G@0x10a0000000",
the original (firmware provided) EFI memmap will be updated so that
the specified memory regions have EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE attribute:

 <original EFI memmap>
   efi: mem00: [Boot Data          |   |    |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000001000) (0MB)

   ...

   efi: mem36: [Conventional Memory|   |RELY|  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000000100000000-0x0000000180000000) (2048MB)
   efi: mem37: [Conventional Memory|   |    |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000000180000000-0x00000010a0000000) (61952MB)
   efi: mem38: [Conventional Memory|   |RELY|  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x00000010a0000000-0x0000001120000000) (2048MB)
   efi: mem39: [Conventional Memory|   |    |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000001120000000-0x00000020a0000000) (63488MB)

And you will find that the following message is output:

   efi: Memory: 4096M/131455M mirrored memory

The quirks file isn't intended to be used for this kind of feature.
It's very much a repository for workarounds for quirky firmware, i.e.
known bugs.

Instead, how about putting all this into a new fake_mem.c file? Going
further than that, there's nothing that I can see that looks
particularly x86-specific, so how about sticking all this in
drivers/firmware/efi/fake_mem.c so that the arm64 folks can make use
of it if/when they want to start playing around with
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE?

Can we rename 'p' and 'q', 'old' and 'new'? Otherwise it gets a little
tricky to follow the below code.
