[PATCH v5 0/2] x86/boot: Use efi_setup_data for searching RSDP on kexec-ed kernel

[Baoquan He]

In this series, patch 2/2 has dependency on patch 1/1, otherwise
it may cause system to reset to firmware on some machines.

The patch 2/2 is the version Boris organized:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190416095209.GG27892@zn.tnic

Patch 1/1 is based on Kairui's v1 patch, and add ACPI tables mapping:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190422092804.15534-1-kasong@redhat.com

Dave Young confirmed this patchset passed test on his t420 laptop, where
the system resetting issue caused by patch 2/2 was found.

[PATCH v5 1/2] x86/kexec: Build identity mapping for EFI systab and ACPI tables

[Baoquan He]

From: Kairui Song <kasong@redhat.com>

The current code only builds identity mapping for physical memory during
kexec-type loading. The regions reserved by firmware are not covered.
In the next patch, the boot decompressing code of kexec-ed kernel tries
to access EFI systab and ACPI tables, lacking identity mapping for them
will cause error and reset system to firmware.

This error doesn't happen on all systems. Because kexec enables gbpages
to build identity mapping, the EFI systab and ACPI tables could have been
covered if they share the same 1 GB area with physical memory. To make
sure, we should map them always.

So here add mapping for them.

There's no guarantee that when this patch gets applied, the next patch
will be the one you mean. So explain what you mean here instead.

When you send someone else's patch, you need to add your SOB. Lemme
point you to

This function's name is wrong. Make it like this:

static int
map_efi_systab(struct x86_mapping_info *info, pgd_t *level4p)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_EFI

	...

#endif

	return 0;
}

and drop the #else ifdeffery.

Flip that logic:

	if (!mstart)
		return 0;

	return kernel_ident_mapping_init(info, level4p, mstart, mend);

and let the function stick out.

All agreed, will update all of them, thanks.

About this place, do you think below change is OK to you?

~~~
The current code only builds identity mapping for physical memory during
kexec-type loading. The regions reserved by firmware are not covered.
In the later code change, the boot decompressing code of kexec-ed kernel
will try to access EFI systab and ACPI tables, lacking identity mapping for
them will cause error and reset system to firmware.

[PATCH v6 1/2] x86/kexec: Build identity mapping for EFI systab and ACPI tables

[Baoquan He]

From: Kairui Song <kasong@redhat.com>

The current code only builds identity mapping for physical memory during
kexec-type loading. The regions reserved by firmware are not covered.
In the later patch, the boot decompressing code of kexec-ed kernel tries
to access EFI systab and ACPI tables, lacking identity mapping for them
will cause error and reset system to firmware.

This error doesn't happen on all systems. Because kexec enables gbpages
to build identity mapping, the EFI systab and ACPI tables could have been
covered if they share the same 1 GB area with physical memory. To make
sure, we should map them always.

So here add mapping for them.

Did you at least build-test the !CONFIG_ACPI case?

arch/x86/kernel/machine_kexec_64.c: In function ‘init_pgtable’:
arch/x86/kernel/machine_kexec_64.c:237:11: error: implicit declaration of function ‘map_acpi_tables’; did you mean ‘init_acpi_pgtable’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

I don't think so. ;-(

Sigh, next time at least build-test your patch before hurrying it out. I
fixed it up along with decyphering the commit message:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/kexec: Add the EFI system tables and ACPI tables to the ident map

Currently, only the whole physical memory is identity-mapped for the
kexec kernel and the regions reserved by firmware are ignored.

However, the recent addition of RSDP parsing in the decompression stage
and especially:

  33f0df8d843d ("x86/boot: Search for RSDP in the EFI tables")

which tries to access EFI system tables and to dig out the RDSP address
from there, becomes a problem because in certain configurations, they
might not be mapped in the kexec'ed kernel's address space.

What is more, this problem doesn't appear on all systems because the
kexec kernel uses gigabyte pages to build the identity mapping. And
the EFI system tables and ACPI tables can, depending on the system
configuration, end up being mapped as part of all physical memory, if
they share the same 1 GB area with the physical memory.

Therefore, make sure they're always mapped.

 [ bp: productize half-baked patch:
   - rewrite commit message.
   - s/init_acpi_pgtable/map_acpi_tables/ in the !ACPI case. ]

Sorry, thought them simple, didn't build !CONFIG_ACPI case. Should be
more careful.

Thanks for fixing it and the log rewriting.

This is a critical bug which breaks memory hotplug, since KASLR is
enabled by default in upstream, and in our distros too. You can see that
Junichi posted the patch after NEC must have tested the code and found
the new issue. And Chao from FJ also worked out the patches to fix the bug. 
And I have tracking  bugs at hand from other important customers, related
to this fix too. The back porting of Chao's patches into our distros are
blocked by these two. We gonna miss another due date we promised to customers.

Please concentrate and stop the blabla:

36f0c423552d ("x86/boot: Disable RSDP parsing temporarily")

already explains what the deal is. This code was *purposefully* disabled
because we ran out of time and it broke a couple of machines. Don't make
me repeat all that - you were on CC on *all* threads and messages!

So we're going to try it again this cycle and if there's no fallout, it
will go upstream. If not, it will have to be fixed. The usual thing.

And I don't care if Kairui's patch fixes this one problem - judging by
the fragility of this whole thing, it should be hammered on one more
cycle on as many boxes as possible to make sure there's no other SNAFUs.

So go test it on more machines instead. I've pushed it here:

Pingfan has got a machine to reproduce the kexec breakage issue, and
applying these two patches fix it. He planned to paste the test result.
I will ask him to try this branch if he has time, or I can get his
machine to test.

Junichi, also have a try on Boris's branch in NEC's test environment?

while the patch set works on most of the machines I'm testing around,
I found kexec(1) fails to load kernel on a few machines if this patch
is applied.  Those machines don't have IORES_DESC_ACPI_TABLES region
and have ACPI tables in IORES_DESC_ACPI_NV_STORAGE region instead.

So I think map_acpi_tables() should try to map both regions.  I tried
following change in addition and it worked.

Why? What kind of machines are those?

Why are the ACPI tables in NV storage?

Looking at crash_setup_memmap_entries(), it already maps that type so I
guess this is needed.

+ Rafael and leaving in the rest for reference.

I don't know.  They are just general purpose Xeon-based servers
and not some special purpose machines.  So I guess there are other
such machines in the wild.

Hi, I think it's reasonable to update the patch to include the
NV_STORAGE regions as well, most likely the firmware only provided
NV_STORAGE region? Can you help confirm if the e820 didn't contain
ACPI data, and only ACPI NVS?

I had a try with this update patch, it worked and didn't break anything.

Hi Boris, would you prefer to just fold Junichi update patch into the
previous one or I should send an updated patch?

Yes, those machines only have ACPI NVS region as far as I see from kernel log.

Please send a patch ontop after Ingo queues your old one, which should
happen soon. This way it would also document the fact that there are
machines with NVS regions only.

I did some tests on the laptop,  thing is:
1. apply the 3 patches (two you posted + Boris's revert commit 52b922c3d49c)
   on latest Linus master branch, everything works fine.

2. build and test the tip/next-merge-window branch, kernel hangs early
without output, (both 1st boot and kexec boot)

So I think these 3 patches are good,  but there could be other issues
which is not related to the problem we saw.

Another thing is we can move the get rsdp after console_init, but that
can be done later as separate patch.

Thanks
Dave

Thanks, Dave.

Yeah, I also tested on a HP machine, problem reprodued on the current
master branch when revert commit 52b922c3d49c.

Then apply these two patches, problem solved.

Tried boris's next-merge-window branch too, kexec works very well.

Dirk, Junichi, feel free to add your test result if you have time.

Yes, agree.

I tested this with the patches (plus revert of the workaround) applied 
against stable 5.1 and it works fine for me there. Thanks!

Where can I find the next-merge-window tree?

I can test against that too.

It'll appear soon in a tip branch. I'd appreciate if you tested that
instead - stay tuned...

Update about 2.  It should be not early rsdp related, I got the boot log
Since can not reproduce with Linus master branch it may have been fixed.

I can confirm as I got same result on my T420. next-merge-window
branch fails both normal boot and kexec...
I didn't manage to get a working serial console, but the behavior is
the same so should be the same issue.

Also after "git cherry-pick de01951c8d40^..next-merge-window" on
master branch, it worked well, so the patch should be good.

The DS buffers are special in that they're part of cpu_entrt_area. If
this comes apart it might mean your pagetables are dodgy.

Hmm, it seems caused by some WIP branch patches, I suspect below:
commit 124d6af5a5f559e516ed2c6ea857e889ed293b43
x86/paravirt: Standardize 'insn_buff' variable names

The suspicious line is "per_cpu(insn_buff, cpu) = insn_buff;"

I can help to test if need to try anything, eg. debug patch.

I do not know anything of the pti and ds buffer logic, but below chunk
make the next-merge-window branch booting fine on the laptop.

Grmbl.. Ingo, can you zap all those WIP branches, please? They mostly
just get in the way of things. If you want to run them, merge them in a
private branch or something.

Yah, unfortunatly per-cpu variables live in the same namespace as normal
variables and so the above is incorrect, because the local @insn_buffer
variable shadows the global per-cpu symbol and very weird things will
happen.

This is of course consistent with C rules, where everything lives in the
same namespace...

Will do, but I do not use tip tree often, not sure which branch includes
the fix.

Is it tip/master or tip/tip?

x86/kexec: Add the EFI system tables and ACPI tables to the ident map

Currently, only the whole physical memory is identity-mapped for the
kexec kernel and the regions reserved by firmware are ignored.

However, the recent addition of RSDP parsing in the decompression stage
and especially:

  33f0df8d843d ("x86/boot: Search for RSDP in the EFI tables")

which tries to access EFI system tables and to dig out the RDSP address
from there, becomes a problem because in certain configurations, they
might not be mapped in the kexec'ed kernel's address space.

What is more, this problem doesn't appear on all systems because the
kexec kernel uses gigabyte pages to build the identity mapping. And
the EFI system tables and ACPI tables can, depending on the system
configuration, end up being mapped as part of all physical memory, if
they share the same 1 GB area with the physical memory.

Therefore, make sure they're always mapped.

 [ bp: productize half-baked patch:
   - rewrite commit message.
   - correct the map_acpi_tables() function name in the !ACPI case. ]

[PATCH v5 2/2] x86/boot: Use efi_setup_data for searching RSDP on kexec-ed kernels

[Baoquan He]

From: Junichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>

Commit

  3a63f70bf4c3a ("x86/boot: Early parse RSDP and save it in boot_params")

broke kexec boot on EFI systems. efi_get_rsdp_addr() in the early
parsing code tries to search RSDP from the EFI tables but that will
crash because the table address is virtual when the kernel was booted by
kexec (set_virtual_address_map() has run in the first kernel and cannot
be run again in the second kernel).

In the case of kexec, the physical address of EFI tables is provided via
efi_setup_data in boot_params, which is set up by kexec(1).

Factor out the table parsing code and use different pointers depending
on whether the kernel is booted by kexec or not.

 [ bp: Massage. ]

Oops, forgot removing this line of Signed-off-by, it's auto generated by

I guess but this does not give me the warm and fuzzy feeling one week
before the merge window.

So:

https://git.kernel.org/tip/36f0c423552dacaca152324b8e9bda42a6d88865

and we all can relax ourselves and take the next release cycle to test
the hell out of this before reenabling it again.
