Subject: [GIT PULL] EFI urgent fixes
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2015 11:55:43 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150218115543.GA5648@codeblueprint.co.uk> (raw)

Folks, please pull the following fixes. The revert addresses a
regression that Ard hit when booting Qemu and Xen, and the other patch
ensures that we don't triple fault when receiving an NMI or MCE during
an EFI mixed mode call, which may happen, for instance, when running
perf.

The pull is against tip/x86/efi because tip/x86/urgent doesn't contain
commit d1a8d66b9177 ("efi/libstub: Call get_memory_map() to obtain map
and desc sizes") needed for the revert.

If you'd prefer for me to resend this after the merge window closes,
just let me know.

The following changes since commit 3c01b74e818a7a3b2ee9b0d584cca0bc154a031c:

  Merge tag 'efi-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi into x86/efi (2015-01-29 19:16:40 +0100)

  Revert "efi/libstub: Call get_memory_map() to obtain map and desc sizes" (2015-02-18 11:38:13 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
 * Leave a valid 64-bit IDT installed during runtime EFI mixed mode
   calls to avoid triple faults if an NMI/MCE is received.

 * Revert Ard's change to the libstub get_memory_map() that went into
   the v3.20 merge window because it causes boot regressions on Qemu and
   Xen.
