Subject: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 0/2] Optionally call EFI SetVirtualAddressMap()
Date: Sun, 13 Oct 2019 00:11:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.b80738fa53144bc6e5e32c048ccf4e4b95355844.1570918263.git-series.marmarek@invisiblethingslab.com> (raw)
Workaround buggy UEFI accessing boot services memory after ExitBootServices().
Patches discussed here:
https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-08/msg00701.html
In addition to the tests below, I've tested kexec on xen.efi with this option
enabled and it (still) works.
Test results on few laptops:
Thinkpad x230, firmware version 2.77:
- without the patch: crashes on RS call (mapbs helps)
- with patch: works
- same with xen.efi and MB2
Librem 14 v1, firmware version (AMI) ARUD026 (06/18/2015):
- without the patch: works
- with the patch: works
- same with xen.efi and MB2
Dell Latitude E6420, firmware version A21:
this machine requires efi=attr=uc workaround
- without the patch: dom0 hangs before sending any message to the console (even with earlyprintk=xen etc)
- with the patch: crashes before dom0 prints anything: mm.c:896:d0v0 non-privileged attempt to map MMIO space 2c2c2c2c2c
- same with xen.efi and MB2
Thinkpad W540:
- without the patch: crashes on RS call (only efi=no-rs helps)
- with patch: works
- tested only with MB2
Thinkpad X1 Carbon gen5, firmware version 1.22 (2017-07-04):
- without the patch: works
- with patch: works
- tested only xen.efi
Thinkpad P52, firmware version 1.25 (2018-04-15):
- without the patch (MB2): hangs on RS call (mapbs helps)
- without the patch (xen.efi): works(?!)
- with the patch: works
- tested with xen.efi and MB2
Changes in v2:
- fix boot with xen.efi (efi_memmap at this point still needs to be accessed
via physical address). TBH, I don't understand why previous version worked
with MB2 - is directmap mapped at this point?
