[PATCH 1/4] efi/libstub: Free correct pointer on failure

[PATCH 1/4] efi/libstub: Free correct pointer on failure

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

cmdline_ptr is an out parameter, which is not allocated by the function
itself, and likely points into the caller's stack.

cmdline refers to the pool allocation that should be freed when cleaning
up after a failure, so pass this instead to free_pool().

[PATCH 2/4] efi/libstub: Parse builtin command line after bootloader provided one

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

When CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND is set, the core kernel command line handling
logic appends CONFIG_CMDLINE to the bootloader provided command line.
The EFI stub does the opposite, and parses the builtin one first.

The usual behavior of command line options is that the last one takes
precedence if it appears multiple times, unless there is a meaningful
way to combine them. In either case, parsing the builtin command line
first while the core kernel does it in the opposite order is likely to
produce inconsistent results in such cases.

Therefore, switch the order in the stub to match the core kernel.

[PATCH 3/4] efi/libstub: Fix command line fallback handling when loading files

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

CONFIG_CMDLINE, when set, is supposed to serve either as a fallback when
no command line is provided by the bootloader, or to be taken into account
unconditionally, depending on the configured options.

The initrd and dtb loader ignores CONFIG_CMDLINE in either case, and
only takes the EFI firmware provided load options into account. This
means that configuring the kernel with initrd= or dtb= on the built-in
command line does not produce the expected result.

Fix this by doing a separate pass over the built-in command line when
dealing with initrd= or dtb= options.

[PATCH 4/4] efi/libstub: Take command line overrides into account for loaded files

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

When CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERRIDE or CONFIG_CMDLINE_FORCE are configured, the
command line provided by the boot stack should be ignored, and only the
built-in command line should be taken into account.

Add the required handling of this when dealing with initrd= or dtb=
command line options in the EFI stub.

[PATCH 0/4] efi/libstub: Clean up command line handling

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

This is a follow-up to the patches sent out by Jonathan last week
[0][1], to fix the broken command line handling in the EFI stub, which
currently fails to use the built-on command line as a fallback as it
never considers the bootloader provided command line to be empty.

This series fixes some more identified issues:
- free the correct pointer on error
- parse the built-in command line *after* the bootloader provided one,
  if both are available, to match the core kernel's behavior
- implement the missing fallback handling when loading files provided on
  the command line via initrd= or dtb=
- ignore the bootloader provided command line when FORCE or OVERRIDE are
  configured

The latter is provided as a separate change, as it changes behavior in a
way that could result in regressions, however unlikely.
