[PATCH 0/9] x86 EFI boot stub

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

This series adds support for an EFI boot stub, similar to the existing
BIOS boot stub. The result is that you can boot a bzImage on an EFI
machine without the use of a boot loader by making the bzImage appear
to the EFI firmware to be an EFI application. Also, a single bzImage
can be booted on either a BIOS or EFI machine.

Using the EFI boot stub has the advantage that the kernel is
responsible for configuring the machine to the point where we can
fully boot the kernel, so we are no longer at the mercy of the boot
loader.

This series is also available in the 'x86/efi-stub' branch at,

     git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/linux-2.6.git

[PATCH 1/9] x86: Don't use magic strings for EFI loader signature

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@linux.intel.com>

Introduce a symbol, EFI_LOADER_SIGNATURE instead of using the magic
strings, which also helps to reduce the amount of ifdeffery.

[PATCH 2/9] efi.h: Add struct definition for boot time services

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@linux.intel.com>

With the forthcoming efi stub code we're gonna need to access boot
time services so let's define a struct so we can access the functions.

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@linux.intel.com>

Add the EFI loaded image structure and protocol guid which are
required by the x86 EFI boot stub. The EFI boot stub uses the
structure to figure out where it was loaded in memory and to pass
command line arguments to the kernel.

[PATCH 8/9] x86, efi: EFI boot stub support

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@linux.intel.com>

There is currently a large divide between kernel development and the
development of EFI boot loaders. The idea behind this patch is to give
the kernel developers full control over the EFI boot process. As
H. Peter Anvin put it,

"The 'kernel carries its own stub' approach been very successful in
dealing with BIOS, and would make a lot of sense to me for EFI as
well."

This patch introduces an EFI boot stub that allows an x86 bzImage to
be loaded and executed by EFI firmware. The bzImage appears to the
firmware as an EFI application. Luckily there are enough free bits
within the bzImage header so that it can masquerade as an EFI
application, thereby coercing the EFI firmware into loading it and
jumping to its entry point. The beauty of this masquerading approach
is that both BIOS and EFI boot loaders can still load and run the same
bzImage, thereby allowing a single kernel image to work in any boot
environment.

The EFI boot stub supports multiple initrds, but they must exist on
the same partition as the bzImage. Command-line arguments for the
kernel can be appended after the bzImage name when run from the EFI
shell, e.g.

Shell> bzImage console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sdb initrd=initrd.img

The code would benefit from more variables/defines and less magic numbers.

I assume this is all virtual, otherwise it would be really scary.

Does the caller actually something useful here for NULL? Better to have
messages when any of this fails.

This doesn't describe to gcc that the inline assembler 
reads s1 and s2. At the minimum add a memory clobber.

Why not just link in/#include lib/string.c ?

Yeah, good point. I'll update that.

What do you mean by virtual?

Yes, the caller uses the return value to figure out whether it should
fall back to the usual non-EFI bzImage boot procedure.

Confused. The "+" constraint indicates that the register will be both
read from and written to. Why is the memory clobber required? We're not
modifying memory.

I did try to #include it originally but there was various compiler
errors that sent me running in the other direction, e.g.

In file included from arch/x86/boot/compressed/../string.c:83:0,
                 from arch/x86/boot/compressed/string.c:12:
arch/x86/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/string.c: In function ‘strlcat’:
arch/x86/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/string.c:223:2: warning: asm operand 0 probably doesn’t match constraints
arch/x86/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/string.c:223:2: error: impossible constraint in ‘asm’
make[2]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/string.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2

This is with CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=y.

Thanks for the review!

[PATCH 9/9] x86, efi: Make efi_call_phys_prelog() CONFIG_RELOCATABLE-aware

[Matt Fleming]

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@linux.intel.com>

efi_call_phys_prelog() assumes that the kernel was loaded at a
physical address within the first 8MB of ram, usually
0x1000000. However, this isn't the case with a CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
kernel which could have been loaded anywhere in the physical address
space.

Replace the hardcoded pgd_index(0) and pgd_index(PAGE_OFFSET) with the
runtime addresses of the kernel in the physical and virtual space,
respectively.

Fails to boot here. I thought changing characteristics from 0x60500020 to 0xe0500020 would help, but no. :/
This change would make the code section writable.

FileAlignment you use is probably wrong, I think it should be 0x200 not 0x2000 .

Maybe you need to add a data section and fix SizeOfInitializedData too?

It just hangs on a blinking cursor, no idea if it actually started executing anything yet or not, since nothing is printed out.

Thanks for testing out the patches Maarten!

Yep, thanks. That looks like a typo.

Hmm.. possibly. Is this on x86-64?

Hmm.. do you have early printk enabled? Can you hook up a serial console
to this machine?

Yeah the system I'm testing on is 64-bits, if it you get this one working I can check if my old mac mini supports 32-bits efi too.

I get no output on serial console with vmlinuz.efi so it crashes before 'early console in decompress_kernel' is printed.

Hey Maarten, sorry I took so long to respond to this.

OK, so you don't get any output on the serial console. Were you passing
"console=" on the kernel cmdline? If so, the best way to debug this hang
is to add,

	efi_call_phys4(sys_table->runtime->reset_system, EFI_RESET_COLD,
			EFI_SUCCESS, 0, NULL);

just after we setup 'sys_table' in efi_main(). If your machine resets,
then we at least know that the firmware loaded the bzImage correctly.

P.S which machine is this and what is the output of the 'ver' command?
