commit e6023367d7 'x86, kaslr: Prevent .bss from overlaping initrd'
broke the cross compile of x86. It added a objdump invocation, which
invokes the host native objdump and ignores an active cross tool
chain.
Use $(OBJDUMP) instead which takes the CROSS_COMPILE prefix into
account.

This reverts commit 84be880560, which itself reverted my original
attempt to move x86 from #include'ing .c files from across the tree
to using the EFI stub built as a static library.
The issue that affected the original approach was that splitting
the implementation into several .o files resulted in the variable
'efi_early' becoming a global with external linkage, which under
-fPIC implies that references to it must go through the GOT. However,
dealing with this additional GOT entry turned out to be troublesome
on some EFI implementations. (GCC's visibility=hidden attribute is
supposed to lift this requirement, but it turned out not to work on
the 32-bit build.)
Instead, use a pure getter function to get a reference to efi_early.
This approach results in no additional GOT entries being generated,
so there is no need for any changes in the early GOT handling.

When choosing a random address, the current implementation does not take into
account the reversed space for .bss and .brk sections. Thus the relocated kernel
may overlap other components in memory. Here is an example of the overlap from a
x86_64 kernel in qemu (the ranges of physical addresses are presented):
Physical Address
0x0fe00000 --+--------------------+ <-- randomized base
/ | relocated kernel |
vmlinux.bin | (from vmlinux.bin) |
0x1336d000 (an ELF file) +--------------------+--
\ | | \
0x1376d870 --+--------------------+ |
| relocs table | |
0x13c1c2a8 +--------------------+ .bss and .brk
| | |
0x13ce6000 +--------------------+ |
| | /
0x13f77000 | initrd |--
| |
0x13fef374 +--------------------+
The initrd image will then be overwritten by the memset during early
initialization:
[ 1.655204] Unpacking initramfs...
[ 1.662831] Initramfs unpacking failed: junk in compressed archive
This patch prevents the above situation by requiring a larger space when looking
for a random kernel base, so that existing logic can effectively avoids the
overlap.

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.

If we're executing the 32-bit efi_char16_printk() code path (i.e.
running on top of 32-bit firmware) we know that efi_early->text_output
will be a 32-bit value, even though ->text_output has type u64.
Unfortunately, we currently pass ->text_output directly to
efi_early->call() so for CONFIG_X86_32 the compiler will push a 64-bit
value onto the stack, causing the other parameters to be misaligned.
The way we handle this in the rest of the EFI boot stub is to pass
pointers as arguments to efi_early->call(), which automatically do the
right thing (pointers are 32-bit on CONFIG_X86_32, and we simply ignore
the upper 32-bits of the argument register if running in 64-bit mode
with 32-bit firmware).
This fixes a corruption bug when printing strings from the 32-bit EFI
boot stub.

The message isn't all that helpful because setup_efi_pci() can return a

Let's drop the return code from setup_efi_pci*() altogether, since
there's no way to process it in any meaningful way outside of the inner

This reverts commit f23cf8bd5c ("efi/x86: efistub: Move shared
dependencies to <asm/efi.h>") as well as the x86 parts of commit
f4f75ad574 ("efi: efistub: Convert into static library").
The road leading to these two reverts is long and winding.
The above two commits were merged during the v3.17 merge window and
turned the common EFI boot stub code into a static library. This
necessitated making some symbols global in the x86 boot stub which
introduced new entries into the early boot GOT.
The problem was that we weren't fixing up the newly created GOT entries
before invoking the EFI boot stub, which sometimes resulted in hangs or
resets. This failure was reported by Maarten on his Macbook pro.
The proposed fix was commit 9cb0e39423 ("x86/efi: Fixup GOT in all
boot code paths"). However, that caused issues for Linus when booting
his Sony Vaio Pro 11. It was subsequently reverted in commit
f3670394c2.
So that leaves us back with Maarten's Macbook pro not booting.
At this stage in the release cycle the least risky option is to revert
the x86 EFI boot stub to the pre-merge window code structure where we
explicitly #include efi-stub-helper.c instead of linking with the static
library. The arm64 code remains unaffected.
We can take another swing at the x86 parts for v3.18.

I believe the REQUIRED_MASK aproach was taken so that it was
easier to consult in assembly (arch/x86/kernel/verify_cpu.S).
DISABLED_MASK does not have the same restriction, but I
implemented it the same way for consistency.
We have a REQUIRED_MASK... which does two things:
1. Keeps a list of cpuid bits to check in very early boot and
refuse to boot if those are not present.
2. Consulted during cpu_has() checks, which allows us to
optimize out things at compile-time. In other words, if we
*KNOW* we will not boot with the feature off, then we can
safely assume that it will be present forever.
But, we don't have a similar mechanism for CPU features which
may be present but that we know we will not use. We simply
use our existing mechanisms to repeatedly check the status of
the bit at runtime (well, the alternatives patching helps here
but it does not provide compile-time optimization).
Adding a feature to disabled-features.h allows the bit to be
checked via a new macro: cpu_feature_enabled(). Note that
for features in DISABLED_MASK, checks with this macro have
all of the benefits of an #ifdef. Before, we would have done
this in a header:
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MPX
#define cpu_has_mpx cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_MPX)
#else
#define cpu_has_mpx 0
#endif
and this in the code:
if (cpu_has_mpx)
do_some_mpx_thing();
Now, just add your feature to DISABLED_MASK and you can do this
everywhere, and get the same benefits you would have from
#ifdefs:
if (cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_MPX))
do_some_mpx_thing();
We need a new function and *not* a modification to cpu_has()
because there are cases where we actually need to check the CPU
itself, despite what features the kernel supports. The best
example of this is a hypervisor which has no control over what
features its guests are using and where the guest does not depend
on the host for support.

Maarten reported that his Macbook pro 8.2 stopped booting after commit
f23cf8bd5c ("efi/x86: efistub: Move shared dependencies to
<asm/efi.h>"), the main feature of which is changing the visibility of
symbol 'efi_early' from local to global.
By making 'efi_early' global we end up requiring an entry in the Global
Offset Table. Unfortunately, while we do include code to fixup GOT
entries in the early boot code, it's only called after we've executed
the EFI boot stub.
What this amounts to is that references to 'efi_early' in the EFI boot
stub don't point to the correct place.
Since we've got multiple boot entry points we need to be prepared to
fixup the GOT in multiple places, while ensuring that we never do it
more than once, otherwise the GOT entries will still point to the wrong
place.

/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.
In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.

x86/debug: Drop several unnecessary CFI annotations
The EFI boot stub goes to great pains to relocate the kernel image to
an appropriately aligned address, as indicated by the ->kernel_alignment
field in the bzImage header. However, for the PE stub entry case, we
can request that the EFI PE/COFF loader do the work for us.
Fix by exposing the desired alignment via the SectionAlignment field
in the PE/COFF headers. Despite its name, this field provides an
overall alignment requirement for the loaded file. (Naturally, the
FileAlignment field describes the alignment for individual sections.)
There is no way in the PE/COFF headers to express the concept of
min_alignment; we therefore do not expose the minimum (as opposed to
preferred) alignment.

This patch changes both x86 and arm64 efistub implementations
from #including shared .c files under drivers/firmware/efi to
building shared code as a static library.
The x86 code uses a stub built into the boot executable which
uncompresses the kernel at boot time. In this case, the library is
linked into the decompressor.
In the arm64 case, the stub is part of the kernel proper so the library
is linked into the kernel proper as well.

The PE/COFF headers currently describe only the initialised-data
portions of the image, and result in no space being allocated for the
uninitialised-data portions. Consequently, the EFI boot stub will end
up overwriting unexpected areas of memory, with unpredictable results.
Fix by including a .bss section in the PE/COFF headers (functionally
equivalent to the init_size field in the bzImage header).

In order to move from the #include "../../../xxxxx.c" anti-pattern used
by both the x86 and arm64 versions of the stub to a static library
linked into either the kernel proper (arm64) or a separate boot
executable (x86), there is some prepatory work required.
This patch does the following:
- move forward declarations of functions shared between the arch
specific and the generic parts of the stub to include/linux/efi.h
- move forward declarations of functions shared between various .c files
of the generic stub code to a new local header file called "efistub.h"
- add #includes to all .c files which were formerly relying on the
#includor to include the correct header files
- remove all static modifiers from functions which will need to be
externally visible once we move to a static library

commit 7d453eee36 ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a
regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant
(incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit
message,
"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."
This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the
kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary.
But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to
always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of
the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36
effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely.
Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality.
