Subject: [PATCH 3/3] firmware: google: Probe for a GSMI handler in firmware
Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2019 14:48:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191115134842.17013-4-patrick.rudolph@9elements.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191115134842.17013-1-patrick.rudolph@9elements.com>

From: Arthur Heymans <arthur@aheymans.xyz>

Currently this driver is loaded if the DMI string matches coreboot
and has a proper smi_command in the ACPI FADT table, but a GSMI handler in
SMM is an optional feature in coreboot.

So probe for a SMM GSMI handler before initializing the driver.
If the smihandler leaves the calling argument in %eax in the SMM save state
untouched that generally means the is no handler for GSMI.
