Subject: [PATCH 4/6] x86/efi/mixed: Simplify and document thunking logic
Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2025 19:22:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250108182218.1453754-12-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250108182218.1453754-8-ardb+git@google.com>
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
The current boot-time version of the thunk into 32-bit mode, to invoke
EFI services and protocols using the 32-bit calling convention, is a
jumble of argument marshalling code and GDT/IDT and segment register
handling, with an undocumented de facto calling convention that passes
the data segment descriptor, the return address and the GDT/IDT base
pointer for the return in registers EDX, EBP and EBX respectively.
Let's clean this up, and replace this with documented logic that
separates the handling of the segment registers into the 64-bit caller,
and the marshalling of the arguments into the 32-bit callee. Also,
replace the open coded far call with an actual one, removing the need to
pass the return address via a register.
