  efi/capsule: Allocate whole capsule into virtual memory (2016-08-09 11:32:55 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
 * Fix a boot crash on SGI/UV when kexec'ing a kernel with the "noefi"
   kernel parameter - Alex Thorlton

 * Wholly map EFI capsules with vmap() instead of just the first page
   with kmap(), so that the capsule driver works on Qualcomm QDF2432,
   and because the UEFI specification requires the capsule to be fully
   mapped into the kernel's virtual address space - Austin Christ

#1460386 — [PATCH 2/2] efi/capsule: Allocate whole capsule into virtual memory

From: Austin Christ <austinwc@codeaurora.org>

According to UEFI 2.6 section 7.5.3, the capsule should be in contiguous
virtual memory and firmware may consume the capsule immediately. To
correctly implement this functionality, the kernel driver needs to vmap
the entire capsule at the time it is made available to firmware.

The virtual allocation of the capsule update has been changed from kmap,
which was only allocating the first page of the update, to vmap, and
allocates the entire data payload.

#1460395 — [PATCH 1/2] x86/platform/uv: Skip UV runtime services mapping in the efi_runtime_disabled case

From: Alex Thorlton <athorlton@sgi.com>

This problem has actually been in the UV code for a while, but we didn't
catch it until recently, because we had been relying on EFI_OLD_MEMMAP
to allow our systems to boot for a period of time.  We noticed the issue
when trying to kexec a recent community kernel, where we hit this NULL
pointer dereference in efi_sync_low_kernel_mappings:

[    0.337515] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000880
[    0.346276] IP: [<ffffffff8105df8d>] efi_sync_low_kernel_mappings+0x5d/0x1b0

The problem doesn't show up with EFI_OLD_MEMMAP because we skip the
chunk of setup_efi_state that sets the efi_loader_signature for the
kexec'd kernel.  When the kexec'd kernel boots, it won't set EFI_BOOT in
setup_arch, so we completely avoid the bug.

We always kexec with noefi on the command line, so this shouldn't be an
issue, but since we're not actually checking for efi_runtime_disabled in
uv_bios_init, we end up trying to do EFI runtime callbacks when we
shouldn't be. This patch just adds a check for efi_runtime_disabled in
uv_bios_init so that we don't map in uv_systab when runtime_disabled ==
true.
