2011-12-21ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFIYinghai Lu
commit 935a9fee51c945b8942be2d7b4bae069167b4886 upstream. Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during iscsi_ibft module loading. Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier - specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled. Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address. We could just skip that phys address printing. For legacy one, print the found address early. -v2: update comments and description according to Konrad. -v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad. -v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..

2011-12-09firmware: Sigma: Fix endianess issuesLars-Peter Clausen
commit bda63586bc5929e97288cdb371bb6456504867ed upstream. Currently the SigmaDSP firmware loader only works correctly on little-endian systems. Fix this by using the proper endianess conversion functions.

commit c56935bdc0a8edf50237d3b0205133a5b0adc604 upstream. The firmware header is not part of the CRC, so skip it. Otherwise the firmware will be rejected due to non-matching CRCs.

2011-12-09firmware: Sigma: Prevent out of bounds memory accessLars-Peter Clausen
commit 4f718a29fe4908c2cea782f751e9805319684e2b upstream. The SigmaDSP firmware loader currently does not perform enough boundary size checks when processing the firmware. As a result it is possible that a malformed firmware can cause an out of bounds memory access. This patch adds checks which ensure that both the action header and the payload are completely inside the firmware data boundaries before processing them.

2011-06-29[SCSI] iscsi_ibft, be2iscsi, iscsi_boot: fix boot kobj data lifetime managementMike Christie
be2iscsi passes the boot functions its phba object which is allocated in the shost, but iscsi_ibft passes in a object allocated for each item to display. The problem is that iscsi_boot_sysfs was managing the lifetime of the object passed in and doing a kfree on release. This causes a double free for be2iscsi which frees the shost in its pci_remove. This patch fixes the problem by adding a release callback which the drivers can call kfree or a put() type of function (needed for be2iscsi which will do a get/put on the shost).

This patch introduces the 'memconsole' driver. Our firmware gives us access to an in-memory log of the firmware's output. This gives us visibility in a data-center of headless machines as to what the firmware is doing. The memory console is found by the driver by finding a header block in the EBDA. The buffer is then copied out, and is exported to userland in the file /sys/firmware/log.

2011-04-29driver: Google EFI SMIMike Waychison
The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for accessing hardware. Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information. Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used. This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various limitations over time, but all are included herein. This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM strings of the FADT ACPI table. This logic happens in gsmi_system_valid().

2011-04-27x86, setup: Fix EDD3.0 data verification.Gleb Natapov
Check for nonzero path in edd_has_edd30() has no sense. First, it looks at the wrong memory. Device path starts at offset 30 of the info->params structure which is at offset 8 from the beginning of info structure, but code looks at info + 4 instead. This was correct when code was introduced, but around v2.6.4 three more fields were added to edd_info structure (commit 66b61a5c in history.git). Second, even if it will check correct memory it will always succeed since at offset 30 (params->key) there will be non-zero values otherwise previous check would fail. The patch replaces this bogus check with one that verifies checksum. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110426082132.GG2265@redhat.com Signed-off-by: H.

Broadcom iscsi offload firmware uses a non standard ibft sign of "BIFT". When we added support for boot, the anaconda team and I were using older firmware (I guess 4 years old), so boot does not work on current cards.

2011-03-14efivars: Parameterize operations.Mike Waychison
Instead of letting efivars access struct efi directly when dealing with variables, use an operations structure. This allows a later change to reuse the efivars logic without having to pretend to support everything in struct efi.

2011-03-14efivars: parameterize efivarsMike Waychison
Now that we all global variable state is encapsulated by struct efivars, parameterize all functions to the efivars local to the control flow rather than at file scope. We do this by removing the variable "efivars" at file scope and move its storage down to the end of the file. Variables get at efivars by storing the efivars pointer within each efivar_entry. The "new_var" and "del_var" binary attribute files get at the efivars through the private pointer.

2011-03-02dcdbas: force SMI to happen when expectedStuart Hayes
The dcdbas driver can do an I/O write to cause a SMI to occur. The SMI handler looks at certain registers and memory locations, so the SMI needs to happen immediately. On some systems I/O writes are posted, though, causing the SMI to happen well after the "outb" occurred, which causes random failures. Following the "outb" with an "inb" forces the write to go through even if it is posted.

2011-02-25firmware: Fix unaligned memory accesses in dmi-sysfsMike Waychison
DMI entries are arranged in memory back to back with no alignment guarantees. This means that the struct dmi_header passed to callbacks from dmi_walk() itself isn't byte aligned. This causes problems on architectures that expect aligned data, such as IA64. The dmi-sysfs patchset introduced structure member accesses through this passed in dmi_header. Fix this by memcpy()ing the structures to temporary locations on stack when inspecting/copying them.

2011-02-25firmware: Expose DMI type 15 System Event LogMike Waychison
The System Event Log described by DMI entry type 15 may be backed by either memory or may be indirectly accessed via an IO index/data register pair. In order to get read access to this log, expose it in the "system_event_log" sub-directory of type 15 DMI entries, ie: /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log/raw_event_log. This commit handles both IO accessed and memory access system event logs. OEM specific access and GPNV support is explicitly not handled and we error out in the logs when we do not recognize the access method.

2011-02-25firmware: Break out system_event_log in dmi-sysfsMike Waychison
The optional type 15 entry of the DMI table describes a non-volatile storage-backed system event log. In preparation for the next commit which exposes the raw bits of the event log to userland, create a new sub-directory within the dmi entry called "system_event_log" and expose attribute files that describe the event log itself. Currently, only a single child object is permitted within a dmi_sysfs_entry. We simply point at this child from the dmi_sysfs_entry if it exists.

2011-02-25firmware: Basic dmi-sysfs supportMike Waychison
Introduce a new module "dmi-sysfs" that exports the broken out entries of the DMI table through sysfs. Entries are enumerated via dmi_walk() on module load, and are populated as kobjects rooted at /sys/firmware/dmi/entries. Entries are named "<type>-<instance>", where: <type> : is the type of the entry, and <instance> : is the ordinal count within the DMI table of that entry type. This instance is used in lieu the DMI entry's handle as no assurances are made by the kernel that handles are unique. All entries export the following attributes: length : The length of the formatted portion of the entry handle : The handle given to this entry by the firmware raw : The raw bytes of the entire entry, including the formatted portion, the unformatted (strings) portion, and the two terminating nul characters. type : The DMI entry type instance : The ordinal instance of this entry given its type. position : The position ordinal of the entry within the table in its entirety. Entries in dmi-sysfs are kobject backed members called "struct dmi_sysfs_entry" and belong to dmi_kset. They are threaded through entry_list (protected by entry_list_lock) so that we can find them at cleanup time.

The "Type 2" SMBIOS record that contains Board Name is not strictly required and may be absent in the SMBIOS on some platforms. ( Please note that Type 2 is not listed in Table 3 in Sec 6.2 ("Required Structures and Data") of the SMBIOS v2.7 Specification. ) Use the Manufacturer Name (aka System Vendor) name.

2011-01-20kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERTDavid Rientjes
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.
