Instead of using __efistub_global to force variables into the .data
section, leave them in the .bss but pull the EFI stub's .bss section
into .data in the linker script for the compressed kernel.
Add relocation checking for x86 as well to catch non-PC-relative
relocations that require runtime processing, since the EFI stub does not
do any runtime relocation processing.
This will catch, for example, data relocations created by static
initializers of pointers.

Move efi_relocate_kernel() into a separate source file, so that it
only gets pulled into builds for architectures that use it. Since
efi_relocate_kernel() is the only user of efi_low_alloc(), let's
move that over as well.

It is no longer necessary to locate the kernel as low as possible in
physical memory, and so we can switch from efi_low_alloc() [which is
a rather nasty concoction on top of GetMemoryMap()] to a new helper
called efi_allocate_pages_aligned(), which simply rounds up the size
to account for the alignment, and frees the misaligned pages again.
So considering that the kernel can live anywhere in the physical
address space, as long as its alignment requirements are met, let's
switch to efi_allocate_pages_aligned() to allocate the pages.
Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
Break out the code to create an aligned page allocation from mem.c
and move it into a function efi_allocate_pages_aligned() in alignedmem.c.
Update efi_allocate_pages() to invoke it unless the minimum alignment
equals the EFI page size (4 KB), in which case the ordinary page
allocator is sufficient. This way, efi_allocate_pages_aligned() will
only be pulled into the build if it is actually being used (which will
be on arm64 only in the immediate future)

The KASLR code path in the arm64 version of the EFI stub incorporates
some overly complicated logic to randomly allocate a region of the right
alignment: there is no need to randomize the placement of the kernel
modulo 2 MiB separately from the placement of the 2 MiB aligned allocation
itself - we can simply follow the same logic used by the non-randomized
placement, which is to allocate at the correct alignment, and only take
TEXT_OFFSET into account if it is not a round multiple of the alignment.
Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
The notion of a 'preferred' load offset for the kernel dates back to the
times when the kernel's primary mapping overlapped with the linear region,
and memory below it could not be used at all.
Today, the arm64 kernel does not really care where it is loaded in physical
memory, as long as the alignment requirements are met, and so there is no
point in unconditionally moving the kernel to a new location in memory at
boot. Instead, we can
- check for a KASLR seed, and randomly reallocate the kernel if one is
provided
- otherwise, check whether the alignment requirements are met for the
current placement of the kernel, and just run it in place if they are
- finally, do an ordinary page allocation and reallocate the kernel to a
suitably aligned buffer anywhere in memory.
By the same reasoning, there is no need to take TEXT_OFFSET into account
if it is a round multiple of the minimum alignment, which is the usual
case for relocatable kernels with TEXT_OFFSET randomization disabled.
Otherwise, it suffices to use the relative misaligment of TEXT_OFFSET
when reallocating the kernel.
Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
The implementation of efi_random_alloc() arbitrarily truncates the
provided random seed to 16 bits, which limits the granularity of the
randomly chosen allocation offset in memory. This is currently only
an issue if the size of physical memory exceeds 128 GB, but going
forward, we will reduce the allocation alignment to 64 KB, and this
means we need to increase the granularity to ensure that the random
memory allocations are distributed evenly.
We will need to switch to 64-bit arithmetic for the multiplication,
but this does not result in 64-bit integer intrinsic calls on ARM or
on i386.
Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
The EFI stub uses a per-architecture #define for the minimum base
and size alignment of page allocations, which is set to 4 KB for
all architecures except arm64, which uses 64 KB, to ensure that
allocations can always be (un)mapped efficiently, regardless of
the page size used by the kernel proper, which could be a kexec'ee
The API wrappers around page based allocations assume that this
alignment is always taken into account, and so efi_free() will
also round up its size argument to EFI_ALLOC_ALIGN.
Currently, efi_random_alloc() does not honour this alignment for
the allocated size, and so freeing such an allocation may result
in unrelated memory to be freed, potentially leading to issues
after boot. So let's round up size in efi_random_alloc() as well.

Commit
d5cdf4cfea ("efi/x86: Don't relocate the kernel unless necessary")
tries to avoid relocating the kernel in the EFI stub as far as possible.
However, when systemd-boot is used to boot a unified kernel image [1],
the image is constructed by embedding the bzImage as a .linux section in
a PE executable that contains a small stub loader from systemd that will
call the EFI stub handover entry, together with additional sections and
potentially an initrd. When this image is constructed, by for example
dracut, the initrd is placed after the bzImage without ensuring that at
least init_size bytes are available for the bzImage. If the kernel is
not relocated by the EFI stub, this could result in the compressed
kernel's startup code in head_{32,64}.S overwriting the initrd.
To prevent this, unconditionally relocate the kernel if the EFI stub was
entered via the handover entry point.

Commit
3ee372ccce ("x86/boot/compressed/64: Remove .bss/.pgtable from bzImage")
removed the .bss section from the bzImage.
However, while a PE loader is required to zero-initialize the .bss
section before calling the PE entry point, the EFI handover protocol
does not currently document any requirement that .bss be initialized by
the bootloader prior to calling the handover entry.
When systemd-boot is used to boot a unified kernel image [1], the image
is constructed by embedding the bzImage as a .linux section in a PE
executable that contains a small stub loader from systemd together with
additional sections and potentially an initrd. As the .bss section
within the bzImage is no longer explicitly present as part of the file,
it is not initialized before calling the EFI handover entry.
Furthermore, as the size of the embedded .linux section is only the size
of the bzImage file itself, the .bss section's memory may not even have
been allocated.
In particular, this can result in efi_disable_pci_dma being true even
when it was not specified via the command line or configuration option,
which in turn causes crashes while booting on some systems.
To avoid issues, place all EFI stub global variables into the .data
section instead of .bss. As of this writing, only boolean flags for a
few command line arguments and the sys_table pointer were in .bss and
will now move into the .data section.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is enabled, kernel segments mapped with
different permissions (r-x for .text, r-- for .rodata, rw- for .data,
etc) are rounded up to 2 MiB so they can be mapped more efficiently.
In particular, it permits the segments to be mapped using level 2
block entries when using 4k pages, which is expected to result in less
TLB pressure.
However, the mappings for the bulk of the kernel will use level 2
entries anyway, and the misaligned fringes are organized such that they
can take advantage of the contiguous bit, and use far fewer level 3
entries than would be needed otherwise.
This makes the value of this feature dubious at best, and since it is not
enabled in defconfig or in the distro configs, it does not appear to be
in wide use either. So let's just remove it.

added a diagnostic print to the ARM version of the EFI stub that
reports whether an initrd has been loaded that was passed

However, it failed to take into account that, for historical reasons,
the file loading routines return EFI_SUCCESS when no file was found,
and the only way to decide whether a file was loaded is to inspect
the 'size' argument that is passed by reference. So let's inspect
this returned size, to prevent the print from being emitted even if
no initrd was loaded at all.

9f9223778e ("efi/libstub/arm: Make efi_entry() an ordinary PE/COFF entrypoint")
did some code refactoring to get rid of the EFI entry point assembler
code, and in the process, it got rid of the assignment of image_addr
to the value of _text. Instead, it switched to using the image_base
field of the efi_loaded_image struct provided by UEFI, which should
contain the same value.
However, Michael reports that this is not the case: older GRUB builds
corrupt this value in some way, and since we can easily switch back to
referring to _text to discover this value, let's simply do that.
While at it, fix another issue in commit 9f9223778e, which may result
in the unassigned image_addr to be misidentified as the preferred load
offset of the kernel, which is unlikely but will cause a boot crash if
it does occur.
Finally, let's add a warning if the _text vs. image_base discrepancy is
detected, so we can tell more easily how widespread this issue actually
is.

efi_main() currently returns boot_params, with code32_start set inside it

While discussing a patch to discard .eh_frame from the compressed

sections shouldn't exist in the first place because arch/x86/Makefile
uses -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables.
It turns out this is because the Makefiles used to build the compressed
kernel redefine KBUILD_CFLAGS, dropping this flag.
Add the flag to the Makefile for the compressed kernel, as well as the
EFI stub Makefile to fix this.
Also add the flag to boot/Makefile and realmode/rm/Makefile so that the
kernel's boot code (boot/setup.elf) and realmode trampoline
(realmode/rm/realmode.elf) won't be compiled with .eh_frame sections,
since their linker scripts also just discard them.

Add support for booting 64-bit x86 kernels from 32-bit firmware running
on 64-bit capable CPUs without requiring the bootloader to implement
the EFI handover protocol or allocate the setup block, etc etc, all of
which can be done by the stub itself, using code that already exists.
Instead, create an ordinary EFI application entrypoint but implemented
in 32-bit code [so that it can be invoked by 32-bit firmware], and stash
the address of this 32-bit entrypoint in the .compat section where the
bootloader can find it.
Note that we use the setup block embedded in the binary to go through
startup_32(), but it gets reallocated and copied in efi_pe_entry(),
using the same code that runs when the x86 kernel is booted in EFI
mode from native firmware. This requires the loaded image protocol to
be installed on the kernel image's EFI handle, and point to the kernel
image itself and not to its loader. This, in turn, requires the
bootloader to use the LoadImage() boot service to load the 64-bit
image from 32-bit firmware, which is in fact supported by firmware
based on EDK2. (Only StartImage() will fail, and instead, the newly
added entrypoint needs to be invoked)

Currently, we either return with an error [from efi_pe_entry()] or
enter a deadloop [in efi_main()] if any fatal errors occur during
execution of the EFI stub. Let's switch to calling the Exit() EFI boot
service instead in both cases, so that we
a) can get rid of the deadloop, and simply return to the boot manager
if any errors occur during execution of the stub, including during
the call to ExitBootServices(),
b) can also return cleanly from efi_pe_entry() or efi_main() in mixed
mode, once we introduce support for LoadImage/StartImage based mixed
mode in the next patch.
Note that on systems running downstream GRUBs [which do not use LoadImage
or StartImage to boot the kernel, and instead, pass their own image
handle as the loaded image handle], calling Exit() will exit from GRUB
rather than from the kernel, but this is a tolerable side effect.

Add the definitions and use the special wrapper so that the loaded_image
UEFI protocol can be safely used from mixed mode.

One of the advantages of using what basically amounts to a callback
interface into the bootloader for loading the initrd is that it provides
a natural place for the bootloader or firmware to measure the initrd
contents while they are being passed to the kernel.
Unfortunately, this is not a guarantee that the initrd will in fact be
loaded and its /init invoked by the kernel, since the command line may
contain the 'noinitrd' option, in which case the initrd is ignored, but
this will not be reflected in the PCR that covers the initrd measurement.
This could be addressed by measuring the command line as well, and
including that PCR in the attestation policy, but this locks down the
command line completely, which may be too restrictive.
So let's take the noinitrd argument into account in the stub, too. This
forces any PCR that covers the initrd to assume a different value when
noinitrd is passed, allowing an attestation policy to disregard the
command line if there is no need to take its measurement into account
for other reasons.
As Peter points out, this would still require the agent that takes the
measurements to measure a separator event into the PCR in question at
ExitBootServices() time, to prevent replay attacks using the known
measurement from the TPM log.

There are currently two ways to specify the initrd to be passed to the
Linux kernel when booting via the EFI stub:
- it can be passed as a initrd= command line option when doing a pure PE
boot (as opposed to the EFI handover protocol that exists for x86)
- otherwise, the bootloader or firmware can load the initrd into memory,
and pass the address and size via the bootparams struct (x86) or
device tree (ARM)
In the first case, we are limited to loading from the same file system
that the kernel was loaded from, and it is also problematic in a trusted
boot context, given that we cannot easily protect the command line from
tampering without either adding complicated white/blacklisting of boot
arguments or locking down the command line altogether.
In the second case, we force the bootloader to duplicate knowledge about
the boot protocol which is already encoded in the stub, and which may be
subject to change over time, e.g., bootparams struct definitions, memory
allocation/alignment requirements for the placement of the initrd etc etc.
In the ARM case, it also requires the bootloader to modify the hardware
description provided by the firmware, as it is passed in the same file.
On systems where the initrd is measured after loading, it creates a time
window where the initrd contents might be manipulated in memory before
handing over to the kernel.
Address these concerns by adding support for loading the initrd into
memory by invoking the EFI LoadFile2 protocol installed on a vendor
GUIDed device path that specifically designates a Linux initrd.
This addresses the above concerns, by putting the EFI stub in charge of
placement in memory and of passing the base and size to the kernel proper
(via whatever means it desires) while still leaving it up to the firmware
or bootloader to obtain the file contents, potentially from other file
systems than the one the kernel itself was loaded from. On platforms that
implement measured boot, it permits the firmware to take the measurement
right before the kernel actually consumes the contents.
