[PATCHv3 0/5] efi: detect erroneous firmware IRQ manipulation

[PATCHv3 0/5] efi: detect erroneous firmware IRQ manipulation

[Mark Rutland]

Note: this is largely a rework of the final patch from v2 [2], which now has a
per-arch component (and hence additional patches). The rest of v2 has already
been picked up, and hence dropped from this posting.

Some firmware erroneously unmask IRQs (and potentially other architecture
specific exceptions) during runtime services functions, in violation of both
common sense and the UEFI specification. This can result in a number of issues
if said exceptions are taken when they are expected to be masked, and
additionally can confuse IRQ tracing if the original mask state is not
restored prior to returning from firmware.

In practice it's difficult to check that firmware never unmasks exceptions, but
we can at least check that the IRQ flags are at least consistent upon entry to
and return from a runtime services function call. This series implements said
check in the shared EFI runtime wrappers code, after an initial round of
refactoring (patches 1-5 of [2]).

I have left ia64 as-is, without this check, as ia64 doesn't currently use the
generic runtime wrappers, has many special cases for the runtime calls which
don't fit well with the generic code, and I don't expect a new, buggy ia64
firmware to appear soon.

The first time corruption of the IRQ flags is detected, we dump a stack trace,
and set TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND. Additionally, and in all subsequent cases,
we log (with ratelimiting) the specific corruption of the flags, and restore
the expected flags to avoid redundant warnings elsewhere.

Since v1 [1]:
* Fix thinko: s/local_irq_save/local_save_flags/
* Remove ifdefs after conversion
* Remove reundant semicolon from x86 patch
* Move efi_call_virt_check_flags before first use
* Add Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys

Since v2 [2]:
* Drop the refactoring patches (1-5), which Matt has queued
* Add per-arch ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK, as discussed for v2 [3,4]

As with v2, this has been build-tested for each target, but other than arm64 I
don't have a good platform for testing. Hopefully this causes fewer explosions
than v2.

Thanks,
Mark.

[PATCHv3 1/5] efi/runtime-wrappers: detect FW irq flag corruption

[Mark Rutland]

The UEFI spec allows runtime services to be called with interrupts
masked or unmasked, and if a runtime service function needs to mask
interrupts, it must restore the mask to its original state before
returning (i.e. from the PoV of the OS, this does not change across a
call). Firmware should never unmask exceptions, as these may then be
taken by the OS unexpectedly.

Unfortunately, some firmware has been seen to unmask IRQs (and
potentially other maskable exceptions) across runtime services calls,
leaving irq flags corrupted after returning from a runtime services
function call. This may be detected by the IRQ tracing code, but often
goes unnoticed, leaving a potentially disastrous bug hidden.

This patch detects when the irq flags are corrupted by an EFI runtime
services call, logging the call and specific corruption to the console.
While restoring the expected value of the flags is insufficient to avoid
problems, we do so to avoid redundant warnings from elsewhere (e.g. IRQ
tracing).

The set of bits in flags which we want to check is architecture-specific
(e.g. we want to check FIQ on arm64, but not the zero flag on x86), so
each arch must provide ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK to describe those. In the
absence of this mask, the check is a no-op, and we redundantly save the
flags twice, but that will be short-lived as subsequent patches
will implement this and remove the scaffolding.

[PATCHv3 4/5] x86/efi: enable runtime call flag checking

[Mark Rutland]

Define ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK for x86, which will enable the generic
runtime wrapper code to detect when firmware erroneously modifies flags
over a runtime services function call.

For x86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit), we only need check the interrupt flag.

[PATCHv3 5/5] efi/runtime-wrappers: remove ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK ifdef

[Mark Rutland]

Now that arm, arm64, and x86 all provide ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK, we can
get rid of the trivial and now unused implementation of
efi_call_virt_check_flags.

I look forward to the day when the firmware returns in big-endian AArch32 ;)

nit: the assignment itself is already a conversion to bool, so the

This was intentional. I asked Mark to make this change so that it's
explicit for the developer that we're performing the type conversion.

But replacing an implicit boolean cast with an explicit one makes
little sense, no? Don't we simply want '!= 0' here if you need a
boolean expression?

Aha but '!!' is fewer characters to type!!

I'm not that bothered as long as we don't stuff an int into a bool
without giving the programmer some idea we're doing that. It's not
about the compiler getting it wrong, more about a developer
introducing a bug when they change the code in the future. 

Unless anyone objects, I'll fix this up to use '!= 0' when I apply it.

I have no strong preference so long as the code is correct.

Another option is to get rid of the bool entirely:

	flags ^= cur_flags;
	if (!WARN_ON(flags & ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK))
		return;

Agreed - the belt and braces approach isn't necessarily bad if the cost
of cocking it up is significant, and !=0 is as explicit as you can get.
After all, if Joe Random Hacker can't infer the behaviour from looking 4
lines up to see the variable definition, then I wouldn't count on him
understanding !! either ;)

OK, let's do the following because we need flags to be preserved for
printing,

---

	unsigned long cur_flags, mismatch;

	local_save_flags(cur_flags);

	mismatch = flags ^ cur_flags;
