This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The reserve_unaccepted() function incorrectly calculates the size of the
memblock reservation for the unaccepted memory table. It aligns the
size of the table, but fails to account for cases where the table's
starting physical address (efi.unaccepted) is not page-aligned.
If the table starts at an offset within a page and its end crosses into
a subsequent page that the aligned size does not cover, the end of the
table will not be reserved. This can lead to the table being overwritten
or inaccessible, causing a kernel panic in accept_memory().
This issue was observed when starting Intel TDX VMs with specific memory
sizes (e.g., > 64GB).
Fix this by calculating the end address first (including the unaligned
start) and then aligning it up, ensuring the entire range is covered
by the reservation.

The cpu_bitmap flexible array now contains more than just the cpu_bitmap.
In preparation for changing the static mm_struct definitions to cover for
the additional space required, change the cpu_bitmap type from "unsigned
long" to "char", require an unsigned long alignment of the flexible array,
and rename the field from "cpu_bitmap" to "flexible_array".
Introduce the MM_STRUCT_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_INIT macro to statically initialize
the flexible array. This covers the init_mm and efi_mm static
definitions.
This is a preparation step for fixing the missing mm_cid size for static
mm_struct definitions.

When the EFI stub itself loads the initrd and puts it in memory (rather
than simply passing on a struct boot_params or device tree that already
carries initrd information), it exposes this information to the core
kernel via a INITRD configuration table.
Given that config tables are preserved across kexec, this means that
subsequent kexec boots will observe the same information, even though it
most likely has become stale by that point. On x86, this information is
usually superseded by the initrd info passed via bootparams, in which
case this stale information is simply ignored. However, when performing
a kexec boot without passing an initrd, the loader falls back to this
stale information and explodes.
So wipe the base and size from the INITRD config table as soon as it has
been consumed. This fixes the issue for kexec on all EFI architectures.

I've bissected the problem to commit a5baf582f4c0 ("arm64/efi: Call EFI

>From my analyzes, the crash occurs because efi_mm lacks a user_ns field
initialization. This was previously harmless, but commit a5baf582f4c0
("arm64/efi: Call EFI runtime services without disabling preemption")
changed the EFI runtime call path to use kthread_use_mm(&efi_mm), which
temporarily adopts efi_mm as the current mm for the calling kthread.
When a thread has an active mm, LSM hooks like cap_capable() expect
mm->user_ns to be valid for credential checks. With efi_mm.user_ns being
NULL, capability checks during possible /proc access dereference the
NULL pointer and crash.
Fix by initializing efi_mm.user_ns to &init_user_ns.

In the EFI config table, rename LINUX_EFI_SCREEN_INFO_TABLE_GUID to
LINUX_EFI_PRIMARY_DISPLAY_TABLE_GUID. Read sysfb_primary_display from
the entry. In addition to the screen_info, the entry now also contains
EDID information.
In libstub, replace struct screen_info with struct sysfb_display_info
from the kernel's sysfb_primary_display and rename functions
accordingly. Transfer it to the runtime kernel using the kernel's
global state or the LINUX_EFI_PRIMARY_DISPLAY_TABLE_GUID config-table
entry.
With CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=y, libstub now transfers the GOP device's EDID
information to the kernel. If CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=n, EDID information
is disabled. Make the Kconfig symbol CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID available with
EFI. Setting the value to 'n' disables EDID support.
Also rename screen_info.c to primary_display.c and adapt the contained
comment according to the changes.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"These are the arm64 updates for 6.19.
The biggest part is the Arm MPAM driver under drivers/resctrl/.
There's a patch touching mm/ to handle spurious faults for huge pmd
(similar to the pte version). The corresponding arm64 part allows us
to avoid the TLB maintenance if a (huge) page is reused after a write
fault. There's EFI refactoring to allow runtime services with
preemption enabled and the rest is the usual perf/PMU updates and
several cleanups/typos.
Summary:
Core features:
- Basic Arm MPAM (Memory system resource Partitioning And Monitoring)
driver under drivers/resctrl/ which makes use of the fs/rectrl/ API
Perf and PMU:
- Avoid cycle counter on multi-threaded CPUs
- Extend CSPMU device probing and add additional filtering support
for NVIDIA implementations
- Add support for the PMUs on the NoC S3 interconnect
- Add additional compatible strings for new Cortex and C1 CPUs
- Add support for data source filtering to the SPE driver
- Add support for i.MX8QM and "DB" PMU in the imx PMU driver
Memory managemennt:
- Avoid broadcast TLBI if page reused in write fault
- Elide TLB invalidation if the old PTE was not valid
- Drop redundant cpu_set_*_tcr_t0sz() macros
- Propagate pgtable_alloc() errors outside of __create_pgd_mapping()
- Propagate return value from __change_memory_common()
ACPI and EFI:
- Call EFI runtime services without disabling preemption
- Remove unused ACPI function
Miscellaneous:
- ptrace support to disable streaming on SME-only systems
- Improve sysreg generation to include a 'Prefix' descriptor
- Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__
- Align register dumps in the kselftest zt-test
- Remove some no longer used macros/functions
- Various spelling corrections"

UEFI 2.11 introduced EFI_MEMORY_HOT_PLUGGABLE to annotate system memory
regions that are 'cold plugged' at boot, i.e., hot pluggable memory that
is available from early boot, and described as system RAM by the
firmware.
Existing loaders and EFI applications running in the boot context will
happily use this memory for allocating data structures that cannot be
freed or moved at runtime, and this prevents the memory from being
unplugged. Going forward, the new EFI_MEMORY_HOT_PLUGGABLE attribute
should be tested, and memory annotated as such should be avoided for
such allocations.
In the EFI stub, there are a couple of occurrences where, instead of the
high-level AllocatePages() UEFI boot service, a low-level code sequence
is used that traverses the EFI memory map and carves out the requested
number of pages from a free region. This is needed, e.g., for allocating
as low as possible, or for allocating pages at random.
While AllocatePages() should presumably avoid special purpose memory and
cold plugged regions, this manual approach needs to incorporate this
logic itself, in order to prevent the kernel itself from ending up in a
hot unpluggable region, preventing it from being unplugged.
So add the EFI_MEMORY_HOTPLUGGABLE macro definition, and check for it
where appropriate.

When we load SSDT from efi variable (specified with efivar_ssdt=<var>
boot command line argument) a name for the variable is allocated
dynamically because we traverse all EFI variables. Unlike ACPI table
data, which is later used by ACPI engine, the name is no longer needed
once traverse is complete -- don't forget to free this memory.
Same time we silently ignore any errors happened here let's print a
message if something went wrong (but do not exit since this is not a
critical error and the system should continue to boot).
Also while here -- add a note why we keep SSDT table on success.

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

efi_config_parse_tables() reserves memory that holds unaccepted memory
configuration table so it won't be reused by page allocator.
Core-mm requires few helpers to support unaccepted memory:
- accept_memory() checks the range of addresses against the bitmap and
accept memory if needed.
- range_contains_unaccepted_memory() checks if anything within the
range requires acceptance.
Architectural code has to provide efi_get_unaccepted_table() that
returns pointer to the unaccepted memory configuration table.
arch_accept_memory() handles arch-specific part of memory acceptance.

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance: Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, requiring memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific for the Virtual
Machine platform.
Accepting memory is costly and it makes VMM allocate memory for the
accepted guest physical address range. It's better to postpone memory
acceptance until memory is needed. It lowers boot time and reduces
memory overhead.
The kernel needs to know what memory has been accepted. Firmware
communicates this information via memory map: a new memory type --
EFI_UNACCEPTED_MEMORY -- indicates such memory.
Range-based tracking works fine for firmware, but it gets bulky for
the kernel: e820 (or whatever the arch uses) has to be modified on every
page acceptance. It leads to table fragmentation and there's a limited
number of entries in the e820 table.
Another option is to mark such memory as usable in e820 and track if the
range has been accepted in a bitmap. One bit in the bitmap represents a
naturally aligned power-2-sized region of address space -- unit.
For x86, unit size is 2MiB: 4k of the bitmap is enough to track 64GiB or
physical address space.
In the worst-case scenario -- a huge hole in the middle of the
address space -- It needs 256MiB to handle 4PiB of the address
space.
Any unaccepted memory that is not aligned to unit_size gets accepted
upfront.
The bitmap is allocated and constructed in the EFI stub and passed down
to the kernel via EFI configuration table. allocate_e820() allocates the
bitmap if unaccepted memory is present, according to the size of
unaccepted region.

When writing EFI variables, one might get errors with no other message
on why it fails. Being able to see how much is used by EFI variables
helps analyzing such issues.
Since this is not a conventional filesystem, block size is intentionally
set to 1 instead of PAGE_SIZE.
x86 quirks of reserved size are taken into account; so that available
and free size can be different, further helping debugging space issues.
With this patch, one can see the remaining space in EFI variable storage
via efivarfs, like this:
$ df -h /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/

The UEFI spec section 4.2.1 describes the way the human readable EFI
revision should be constructed from the 32-bit revision field in the
system table:
The upper 16 bits of this field contain the major revision value,
and the lower 16 bits contain the minor revision value. The minor
revision values are binary coded decimals and are limited to the
range of 00..99.
When printed or displayed UEFI spec revision is referred as (Major
revision).(Minor revision upper decimal).(Minor revision lower
decimal) or (Major revision).(Minor revision upper decimal) in case
Minor revision lower decimal is set to 0.
Let's adhere to this when logging the EFI revision to the kernel log.
Note that the bit about binary coded decimals is bogus, and the minor
revision lower decimal is simply the minor revision modulo 10, given the
symbolic definitions provided by the spec itself:
#define EFI_2_40_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (40))
#define EFI_2_31_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (31))
#define EFI_2_30_SYSTEM_TABLE_REVISION ((2<<16) | (30))

We currently pass a minimum major version to the generic EFI helper that
checks the system table magic and version, and refuse to boot if the
value is lower.
The motivation for this check is unknown, and even the code that uses
major version 2 as the minimum (ARM, arm64 and RISC-V) should make it
past this check without problems, and boot to a point where we have
access to a console or some other means to inform the user that the
firmware's major revision number made us unhappy. (Revision 2.0 of the
UEFI specification was released in January 2006, whereas ARM, arm64 and
RISC-V support where added in 2009, 2013 and 2017, respectively, so
checking for major version 2 or higher is completely arbitrary)
So just drop the check.

Current Qualcomm UEFI firmware does not implement the variable services
but not all revisions clear the corresponding bits in the RT_PROP table
services mask and instead the corresponding calls return
EFI_UNSUPPORTED.
This leads to efi core registering the generic efivar ops even when the
variable services are not supported or when they are accessed through
some other interface (e.g. Google SMI or the upcoming Qualcomm SCM
implementation).
Instead of playing games with init call levels to make sure that the
custom implementations are registered after the generic one, make sure
that get_next_variable() is actually supported before registering the
generic ops.

As it turns out, Xen does not guarantee that EFI boot services data
regions in memory are preserved, which means that EFI configuration
tables pointing into such memory regions may be corrupted before the
dom0 OS has had a chance to inspect them.
This is causing problems for Qubes OS when it attempts to perform system
firmware updates, which requires that the contents of the EFI System
Resource Table are valid when the fwupd userspace program runs.
However, other configuration tables such as the memory attributes table
or the runtime properties table are equally affected, and so we need a
comprehensive workaround that works for any table type.
So when running under Xen, check the EFI memory descriptor covering the
start of the table, and disregard the table if it does not reside in
memory that is preserved by Xen.

Xen on x86 boots dom0 in EFI mode but without providing a memory map.
This means that some consistency checks we would like to perform on
configuration tables or other data structures in memory are not
currently possible. Xen does, however, expose EFI memory descriptor
info via a Xen hypercall, so let's wire that up instead. It turns out
that the returned information is not identical to what Linux's
efi_mem_desc_lookup would return: the address returned is the address
passed to the hypercall, and the size returned is the number of bytes
remaining in the configuration table. However, none of the callers of
efi_mem_desc_lookup() currently care about this. In the future, Xen may
gain a hypercall that returns the actual start address, which can be
used instead.

The ESRT code currently contains two consistency checks on the memory
descriptor it obtains, but one of them is both incomplete and can only
trigger on invalid descriptors.
So let's drop these checks, and instead disregard descriptors entirely
if the start address is misaligned, or if the number of pages reaches
to or beyond the end of the address space. Note that the memory map as
a whole could still be inconsistent: multiple entries might cover the
same area, or the address could be outside of the addressable PA space,
but validating that goes beyond the scope of these helpers. Also note
that since the physical address space is never 64-bits wide, a
descriptor that includes the last page of memory is not valid. This is
fortunate, since it means that a valid physical address will never be an
error pointer and that the length of a memory descriptor in bytes will
fit in a 64-bit unsigned integer.

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Another fairly sizable pull request, by EFI subsystem standards.
Most of the work was done by me, some of it in collaboration with the
distro and bootloader folks (GRUB, systemd-boot), where the main focus
has been on removing pointless per-arch differences in the way EFI
boots a Linux kernel.
- Refactor the zboot code so that it incorporates all the EFI stub
logic, rather than calling the decompressed kernel as a EFI app.
- Add support for initrd= command line option to x86 mixed mode.
- Allow initrd= to be used with arbitrary EFI accessible file systems
instead of just the one the kernel itself was loaded from.
- Move some x86-only handling and manipulation of the EFI memory map
into arch/x86, as it is not used anywhere else.
- More flexible handling of any random seeds provided by the boot
environment (i.e., systemd-boot) so that it becomes available much
earlier during the boot.
- Allow improved arch-agnostic EFI support in loaders, by setting a
uniform baseline of supported features, and adding a generic magic
number to the DOS/PE header. This should allow loaders such as GRUB
or systemd-boot to reduce the amount of arch-specific handling
substantially.
- (arm64) Run EFI runtime services from a dedicated stack, and use it
to recover from synchronous exceptions that might occur in the
firmware code.
- (arm64) Ensure that we don't allocate memory outside of the 48-bit
addressable physical range.
- Make EFI pstore record size configurable
- Add support for decoding CXL specific CPER records"

Instead of blindly creating the EFI random seed configuration table if
the RNG protocol is implemented and works, check whether such a EFI
configuration table was provided by an earlier boot stage and if so,
concatenate the existing and the new seeds, leaving it up to the core
code to mix it in and credit it the way it sees fit.
This can be used for, e.g., systemd-boot, to pass an additional seed to
Linux in a way that can be consumed by the kernel very early. In that
case, the following definitions should be used to pass the seed to the
EFI stub:
struct linux_efi_random_seed {
u32 size; // of the 'seed' array in bytes
u8 seed[];
};
The memory for the struct must be allocated as EFI_ACPI_RECLAIM_MEMORY
pool memory, and the address of the struct in memory should be installed
as a EFI configuration table using the following GUID:
LINUX_EFI_RANDOM_SEED_TABLE_GUID 1ce1e5bc-7ceb-42f2-81e5-8aadf180f57b
Note that doing so is safe even on kernels that were built without this
patch applied, but the seed will simply be overwritten with a seed
derived from the EFI RNG protocol, if available. The recommended seed
size is 32 bytes, and seeds larger than 512 bytes are considered
corrupted and ignored entirely.
In order to preserve forward secrecy, seeds from previous bootloaders
are memzero'd out, and in order to preserve memory, those older seeds
are also freed from memory. Freeing from memory without first memzeroing
is not safe to do, as it's possible that nothing else will ever
overwrite those pages used by EFI.

The EFI runtime map code is only wired up on x86, which is the only

So let's move this code under arch/x86 and drop all references to it

at the appropriate time use a 'sync' subsys_initcall() that will be
called right after the EFI initcall made from generic code where the

We no longer need at least 64 bytes of random seed to permit the early
crng init to complete. The RNG is now based on Blake2s, so reduce the
EFI seed size to the Blake2s hash size, which is sufficient for our
purposes.
While at it, drop the READ_ONCE(), which was supposed to prevent size
from being evaluated after seed was unmapped. However, this cannot
actually happen, so READ_ONCE() is unnecessary here.
