[PATCH 4.9 03/66] x86/efi: Always map the first physical page into the EFI pagetables

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

commit bf29bddf0417a4783da3b24e8c9e017ac649326f upstream.

Commit:

  129766708 ("x86/efi: Only map RAM into EFI page tables if in mixed-mode")

stopped creating 1:1 mappings for all RAM, when running in native 64-bit mode.

It turns out though that there are 64-bit EFI implementations in the wild
(this particular problem has been reported on a Lenovo Yoga 710-11IKB),
which still make use of the first physical page for their own private use,
even though they explicitly mark it EFI_CONVENTIONAL_MEMORY in the memory
map.

In case there is no mapping for this particular frame in the EFI pagetables,
as soon as firmware tries to make use of it, a triple fault occurs and the
system reboots (in case of the Yoga 710-11IKB this is very early during bootup).

Fix that by always mapping the first page of physical memory into the EFI
pagetables. We're free to hand this page to the BIOS, as trim_bios_range()
will reserve the first page and isolate it away from memory allocators anyway.

Note that just reverting 129766708 alone is not enough on v4.9-rc1+ to fix the
regression on affected hardware, as this commit:

   ab72a27da ("x86/efi: Consolidate region mapping logic")

later made the first physical frame not to be mapped anyway.

[PATCH 4.9 04/66] efi/fdt: Avoid FDT manipulation after ExitBootServices()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>

commit c8f325a59cfc718d13a50fbc746ed9b415c25e92 upstream.

Some AArch64 UEFI implementations disable the MMU in ExitBootServices(),
after which unaligned accesses to RAM are no longer supported.

Commit:

  abfb7b686a3e ("efi/libstub/arm*: Pass latest memory map to the kernel")

fixed an issue in the memory map handling of the stub FDT code, but
inadvertently created an issue with such firmware, by moving some
of the FDT manipulation to after the invocation of ExitBootServices().

Given that the stub's libfdt implementation uses the ordinary, accelerated
string functions, which rely on hardware handling of unaligned accesses,
manipulating the FDT with the MMU off may result in alignment faults.

So fix the situation by moving the update_fdt_memmap() call into the
callback function invoked by efi_exit_boot_services() right before it
calls the ExitBootServices() UEFI service (which is arguably a better
place for it anyway)

Note that disabling the MMU in ExitBootServices() is not compliant with
the UEFI spec, and carries great risk due to the fact that switching from
cached to uncached memory accesses halfway through compiler generated code
(i.e., involving a stack) can never be done in a way that is architecturally
safe.
