Subject: [PATCH 20/28] efi/x86: ignore memory attributes table on i386
Date: Sun,  8 Mar 2020 09:08:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200308080859.21568-21-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200308080859.21568-1-ardb@kernel.org>

Commit 3a6b6c6fb23667fa ("efi: Make EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE
initialization common across all architectures") moved the call to
efi_memattr_init() from ARM specific to generic EFI init code, in
order to be able to apply the restricted permissions described in
that table on x86 as well.

We never enabled this feature fully on i386, and so mapping and
reserving this table is pointless. However, due to the early call to
memblock_reserve(), the memory bookkeeping gets confused to the point
where it produces the splat below when we try to map the memory later
on:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------

Let's work around this by disregarding the memory attributes table
altogether on i386, which does not result in a loss of functionality
or protection, given that we never consumed the contents.
