  [    0.026978] efi_bgrt: Ignoring BGRT: failed to map image memory

early_memremap() has an upper limit on the size of mapping it can
handle which is ~200KB. Clearly the BGRT image on Môshe's machine is
much larger than that.

There's actually no reason to restrict ourselves to using the early_*
version of memremap() - the ACPI BGRT driver is invoked late enough in
boot that we can use the standard version, with the benefit that the
late version allows mappings of arbitrary size.

commit 50a0cb565246f20d59cdb161778531e4b19d35ac upstream.

Starting with this commit 35eb8b81edd4 ("x86/efi: Build our own page
table structures") efi regions have a separate page directory called
"efi_pgd". In order to access any efi region we have to first shift %cr3
to this page table. In the bgrt code we are trying to copy bgrt_header
and image, but these regions fall under "EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA"
and to access these regions we have to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd and not
doing so will cause page fault as shown below.

As said above one way to fix this bug is to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd but we
are not doing that way because it leaks inner details of how we switch
to EFI page tables into a new call site and it also adds duplicate code.
Instead, we remove the call to efi_lookup_mapped_addr() and always
perform early_mem*() instead of early_io*() because we want to remap RAM
regions and not I/O regions. We also delete efi_lookup_mapped_addr()
because we are no longer using it.

commit 67a9108ed4313b85a9c53406d80dc1ae3f8c3e36 upstream.

With commit e1a58320a38d ("x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings") all
users booting on 64-bit UEFI machines see the following warning,

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:225 note_page+0x5dc/0x780()
  x86/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address ffff88000005f000/0xffff88000005f000
  ...
  x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: FAILED, 165660 W+X pages found.
  ...

This is caused by mapping EFI regions with RWX permissions.
There isn't much we can do to restrict the permissions for these
regions due to the way the firmware toolchains mix code and
data, but we can at least isolate these mappings so that they do
not appear in the regular kernel page tables.

In commit d2f7cbe7b26a ("x86/efi: Runtime services virtual
mapping") we started using 'trampoline_pgd' to map the EFI
regions because there was an existing identity mapping there
which we use during the SetVirtualAddressMap() call and for
broken firmware that accesses those addresses.

But 'trampoline_pgd' shares some PGD entries with
'swapper_pg_dir' and does not provide the isolation we require.
Notably the virtual address for __START_KERNEL_map and
MODULES_START are mapped by the same PGD entry so we need to be
more careful when copying changes over in
efi_sync_low_kernel_mappings().

This patch doesn't go the full mile, we still want to share some
PGD entries with 'swapper_pg_dir'. Having completely separate
page tables brings its own issues such as synchronising new
mappings after memory hotplug and module loading. Sharing also
keeps memory usage down.

commit c9f2a9a65e4855b74d92cdad688f6ee4a1a323ff upstream.

This change is a prerequisite for pending patches that switch to
a dedicated EFI page table, instead of using 'trampoline_pgd'
which shares PGD entries with 'swapper_pg_dir'. The pending
patches make it impossible to dereference the runtime service
function pointer without first switching %cr3.

It's true that we now have duplicated switching code in
efi_call_virt() and efi_call_phys_{prolog,epilog}() but we are
sacrificing code duplication for a little more clarity and the
ease of writing the page table switching code in C instead of
asm.

<title>x86/mm/pat: Ensure cpa-&gt;pfn only contains page frame numbers</title>

commit edc3b9129cecd0f0857112136f5b8b1bc1d45918 upstream.

The x86 pageattr code is confused about the data that is stored
in cpa-&gt;pfn, sometimes it's treated as a page frame number,
sometimes it's treated as an unshifted physical address, and in
one place it's treated as a pte.

The result of this is that the mapping functions do not map the
intended physical address.

This isn't a problem in practice because most of the addresses
we're mapping in the EFI code paths are already mapped in
'trampoline_pgd' and so the pageattr mapping functions don't
actually do anything in this case. But when we move to using a
separate page table for the EFI runtime this will be an issue.

<title>efi: Use correct type for struct efi_memory_map::phys_map</title>

We have been getting away with using a void* for the physical
address of the UEFI memory map, since, even on 32-bit platforms
with 64-bit physical addresses, no truncation takes place if the
memory map has been allocated by the firmware (which only uses
1:1 virtually addressable memory), which is usually the case.

However, commit:

  0f96a99dab36 ("efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option")

adds code that clones and modifies the UEFI memory map, and the
clone may live above 4 GB on 32-bit platforms.

This means our use of void* for struct efi_memory_map::phys_map has
graduated from 'incorrect but working' to 'incorrect and
broken', and we need to fix it.

So redefine struct efi_memory_map::phys_map as phys_addr_t, and
get rid of a bunch of casts that are now unneeded.

Pull v4.4 EFI updates from Matt Fleming:

  - Make the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) driver explicitly
    non-modular by ripping out the module_* code since Kconfig doesn't
    allow it to be built as a module anyway. (Paul Gortmaker)

  - Make the x86 efi=debug kernel parameter, which enables EFI debug
    code and output, generic and usable by arm64. (Leif Lindholm)

  - Add support to the x86 EFI boot stub for 64-bit Graphics Output
    Protocol frame buffer addresses. (Matt Fleming)

  - Detect when the UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE feature is enabled
    in the firmware and set an efi.flags bit so the kernel knows when
    it can apply more strict runtime mapping attributes - Ard Biesheuvel

  - Auto-load the efi-pstore module on EFI systems, just like we
    currently do for the efivars module. (Ben Hutchings)

  - Add "efi_fake_mem" kernel parameter which allows the system's EFI
    memory map to be updated with additional attributes for specific
    memory ranges. This is useful for testing the kernel code that handles
    the EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memmap bit even if your firmware
    doesn't include support. (Taku Izumi)

Note: there is a semantic conflict between the following two commits:

  8a53554e12e9 ("x86/efi: Fix multiple GOP device support")
  ae2ee627dc87 ("efifb: Add support for 64-bit frame buffer addresses")

I fixed up the interaction in the merge commit, changing the type of
current_fb_base from u32 to u64.
