There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.
And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.
The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.
Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.
Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.

4 drivers / enabling modules:
NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory devices
(NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface
table). After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers
"region" devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block device
(disk) interface to the memory.
PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of persistent
memory address ranges is re-worked to drive PMEM-namespaces emitted by
the libnvdimm-core. In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the
ability to assert that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all
the way through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent
media. See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().
BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through "Block
Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference of this
driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent memory is
mapped into system address space at any given point in time. Per-NVDIMM
windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access different
portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not support DAX.
BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss). The
sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do not know
they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's disk's rarely
ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly gets a CRC error
on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always silently. Until an
application is audited to be robust in the presence of sector-tearing
the usage of BTT is recommended.

Add sysfs files for the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) under
/sys/firmware/efi/esrt and for each EFI System Resource Entry under
entries/ as a subdir.
The EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) provides a read-only catalog of
system components for which the system accepts firmware upgrades via
UEFI's "Capsule Update" feature. This module allows userland utilities
to evaluate what firmware updates can be applied to this system, and
potentially arrange for those updates to occur.
The ESRT is described as part of the UEFI specification, in version 2.5
which should be available from http://uefi.org/specifications in early
2015. If you're a member of the UEFI Forum, information about its
addition to the standard is available as UEFI Mantis 1090.

Currently x86-64 efi_call_phys_prolog() saves into a global variable (save_pgd),
and efi_call_phys_epilog() restores the kernel pagetables from that global
variable.
Change this to a cleaner save/restore pattern where the saving function returns
the saved object and the restore function restores that.
Apply the same concept to the 32-bit code as well.
Plus this approach, as an added bonus, allows us to express the

kmalloc() can sleep.
Solve this by removing the irq disabling from the prolog/epilog calls
around EFI calls: it's unnecessary, as in this stage we are single
threaded in the boot thread, and we don't ever execute this from

Andy pointed out that if an NMI or MCE is received while we're in the
middle of an EFI mixed mode call a triple fault will occur. This can
happen, for example, when issuing an EFI mixed mode call while running
perf.
The reason for the triple fault is that we execute the mixed mode call
in 32-bit mode with paging disabled but with 64-bit kernel IDT handlers
installed throughout the call.
At Andy's suggestion, stop playing the games we currently do at runtime,
such as disabling paging and installing a 32-bit GDT for __KERNEL_CS. We
can simply switch to the __KERNEL32_CS descriptor before invoking
firmware services, and run in compatibility mode. This way, if an
NMI/MCE does occur the kernel IDT handler will execute correctly, since
it'll jump to __KERNEL_CS automatically.
However, this change is only possible post-ExitBootServices(). Before
then the firmware "owns" the machine and expects for its 32-bit IDT
handlers to be left intact to service interrupts, etc.
So, we now need to distinguish between early boot and runtime
invocations of EFI services. During early boot, we need to restore the
GDT that the firmware expects to be present. We can only jump to the
__KERNEL32_CS code segment for mixed mode calls after ExitBootServices()
has been invoked.
A liberal sprinkling of comments in the thunking code should make the
differences in early and late environments more apparent.

The EFI runtime services are, unfortunately, located in-between the

The 32 bit and 64 bit implementations differ in their __init annotations
for some functions referenced from the common EFI code. Namely, the 32
bit variant is missing some of the __init annotations the 64 bit variant
has.
To solve the colliding annotations, mark the corresponding functions in
efi_32.c as initialization code, too -- as it is such.
Actually, quite a few more functions are only used during initialization
and therefore can be marked __init. They are therefore annotated, too.
Also add the __init annotation to the prototypes in the efi.h header so
users of those functions will see it's meant as initialization code
only.
This patch also fixes the "prelog" typo. ("prologue" / "epilogue" might
be more appropriate but this is C code after all, not an opera! :D)

We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
when reading files from the EFI System Partition.
One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with
commit 4bf7111f50 ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and
that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt
initrd rather than any kind of crash.
efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different
execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot.
There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk,
but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into
firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving
the workaround enabled by default.
Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're
using the current value of 1MB.

Introduce EFI_PARAVIRT flag. If it is set then kernel runs
on EFI platform but it has not direct control on EFI stuff
like EFI runtime, tables, structures, etc. If not this means
that Linux Kernel has direct access to EFI infrastructure
and everything runs as usual.
This functionality is used in Xen dom0 because hypervisor
has full control on EFI stuff and all calls from dom0 to
EFI must be requested via special hypercall which in turn
executes relevant EFI code in behalf of dom0.

Use early_mem*() instead of early_io*() because all mapped EFI regions
are memory (usually RAM but they could also be ROM, EPROM, EEPROM, flash,
etc.) not I/O regions. Additionally, I/O family calls do not work correctly
under Xen in our case. early_ioremap() skips the PFN to MFN conversion
when building the PTE. Using it for memory will attempt to map the wrong
machine frame. However, all artificial EFI structures created under Xen
live in dom0 memory and should be mapped/unmapped using early_mem*() family
calls which map domain memory.

It appears that the BayTrail-T class of hardware requires EFI in order
to powerdown and reboot and no other reliable method exists.
This quirk is generally applicable to all hardware that has the ACPI

method.

Dave Young had made previous attempts to convert the early_iounmap()
calls to early_memunmap() but ran into merge conflicts with commit
9e5c33d7ae ("mm: create generic early_ioremap() support").
Now that we've got that commit in place we can switch to using
early_memunmap() since we're already using early_memremap() in
efi_reuse_config().

For ioremapped efi memory aka old_map the virt addresses are not persistant
across kexec reboot. kexec-tools will read the runtime maps from sysfs then
pass them to 2nd kernel and assuming kexec efi boot is ok. This will cause
kexec boot failure.
To address this issue do not export runtime maps in case efi old_map so
userspace can use no efi boot instead.

earlyprintk=efi,keep will cause kernel hangs while freeing initmem like
below:
VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 254:2.
devtmpfs: mounted
Freeing unused kernel memory: 880K (ffffffff817d4000 - ffffffff818b0000)
It is caused by efi earlyprintk use __init function which will be freed
later. Such as early_efi_write is marked as __init, also it will use
early_ioremap which is init function as well.
To fix this issue, I added early initcall early_efi_map_fb which maps
the whole efi fb for later use. OTOH, adding a wrapper function
early_efi_map which calls early_ioremap before ioremap is available.
With this patch applied efi boot ok with earlyprintk=efi,keep console=efi

For i386, all the EFI system runtime services functions return efi_status_t
except efi_reset_system_system. Therefore, not all functions can be covered
by the same macro in case the macro needs to do more than calling the function
(i.e., return a value). The purpose of the __efi_call_virt macro is to be used
when no return value is expected.
For x86_64, this macro would not be needed as all the runtime services return
u64. However, the same code is used for both x86_64 and i386. Thus, the macro
__efi_call_virt is also defined to not break compilation.

We really only need one phys and one virt function call, and then only
one assembly function to make firmware calls.
Since we are not using the C type system anyway, we're not really losing
much by deleting the macros apart from no longer having a check that
we are passing the correct number of parameters. The lack of duplicated
code seems like a worthwhile trade-off.

Dan reported that phys_efi_get_time() is doing kmalloc(..., GFP_KERNEL)
under a spinlock which is very clearly a bug. Since phys_efi_get_time()
has no users let's just delete it instead of trying to fix it.
Note that since there are no users of phys_efi_get_time(), it is not
possible to actually trigger a GFP_KERNEL alloc under the spinlock.

I was triggering a #GP(0) from userland when running with
CONFIG_EFI_MIXED and CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION, from what looked like
register corruption. Turns out that the mixed mode code was trashing the
contents of %ds, %es and %ss in __efi64_thunk().
Save and restore the contents of these segment registers across the call
to __efi64_thunk() so that we don't corrupt the CPU context.

Some firmware appears to enable interrupts during boot service calls,
even if we've explicitly disabled them prior to the call. This is
actually allowed per the UEFI spec because boottime services expect to
be called with interrupts enabled.
So that's fine, we just need to ensure that we disable them again in
efi_enter32() before switching to a 64-bit GDT, otherwise an interrupt
may fire causing a 32-bit IRQ handler to run after we've left
compatibility mode.
Despite efi_enter32() being called both for boottime and runtime
services, this really only affects boottime because the runtime services
callchain is executed with interrupts disabled. See efi_thunk().

Add the Kconfig option and bump the kernel header version so that boot
loaders can check whether the handover code is available if they want.
The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits.
Note that no boot loaders should be using the bits set in xloadflags to
decide which entry point to jump to. The entire scheme is based on the
concept that 32-bit bootloaders always jump to ->handover_offset and
64-bit loaders always jump to ->handover_offset + 512. We set both bits
merely to inform the boot loader that it's safe to use the native
handover offset even if the machine type in the PE/COFF header claims
otherwise.

Setup the runtime services based on whether we're booting in EFI native
mode or not. For non-native mode we need to thunk from 64-bit into
32-bit mode before invoking the EFI runtime services.
Using the runtime services after SetVirtualAddressMap() is slightly more
complicated because we need to ensure that all the addresses we pass to
the firmware are below the 4GB boundary so that they can be addressed
with 32-bit pointers, see efi_setup_page_tables().

Implement the transition code to go from IA32e mode to protected mode in
the EFI boot stub. This is required to use 32-bit EFI services from a
64-bit kernel.
Since EFI boot stub is executed in an identity-mapped region, there's
not much we need to do before invoking the 32-bit EFI boot services.
However, we do reload the firmware's global descriptor table
(efi32_boot_gdt) in case things like timer events are still running in
the firmware.
