* efivars: explicitly calculate length of VariableNameMatt Fleming2013-03-211-1/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's not wise to assume VariableNameSize represents the length of VariableName, as not all firmware updates VariableNameSize in the same way (some don't update it at all if EFI_SUCCESS is returned). There are even implementations out there that update VariableNameSize with values that are both larger than the string returned in VariableName and smaller than the buffer passed to GetNextVariableName(), which resulted in the following bug report from Michael Schroeder, > On HP z220 system (firmware version 1.54), some EFI variables are > incorrectly named : > > ls -d /sys/firmware/efi/vars/*8be4d* | grep -v -- -8be returns > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/dbxDefault-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/KEKDefault-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/SecureBoot-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/SetupMode-Information8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c The issue here is that because we blindly use VariableNameSize without verifying its value, we can potentially read garbage values from the buffer containing VariableName if VariableNameSize is larger than the length of VariableName. Since VariableName is a string, we can calculate its size by searching for the terminating NULL character.

* efivars: Add module parameter to disable use as a pstore backendSeth Forshee2013-03-212-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We know that with some firmware implementations writing too much data to UEFI variables can lead to bricking machines. Recent changes attempt to address this issue, but for some it may still be prudent to avoid writing large amounts of data until the solution has been proven on a wide variety of hardware. Crash dumps or other data from pstore can potentially be a large data source. Add a pstore_module parameter to efivars to allow disabling its use as a backend for pstore. Also add a config option, CONFIG_EFI_VARS_PSTORE_DEFAULT_DISABLE, to allow setting the default value of this paramter to true (i.e. disabled by default).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

The UEFI specification doesn't impose any constraints on variable names other than they be a NULL-terminated string. The above commits caused a regression that resulted in users seeing the following message, $ sudo mount -v /sys/firmware/efi/efivars mount: Cannot allocate memory whenever pstore EFI variables were present in the variable store, since their variable names failed to pass the following check, /* GUID should be right after the first '-' */ if (s - 1 != strchr(str, '-')) as a typical pstore filename is of the form, dump-type0-10-1-<guid>. The fix is trivial since the guid portion of the filename is GUID_LEN bytes, we can use (len - GUID_LEN) to ensure the '-' character is where we expect it to be. (The bogus ENOMEM error value will be fixed in a separate patch.)

* | efi: be more paranoid about available space when creating variablesMatthew Garrett2013-03-061-27/+79
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UEFI variables are typically stored in flash. For various reasons, avaiable space is typically not reclaimed immediately upon the deletion of a variable - instead, the system will garbage collect during initialisation after a reboot. Some systems appear to handle this garbage collection extremely poorly, failing if more than 50% of the system flash is in use. This can result in the machine refusing to boot. The safest thing to do for the moment is to forbid writes if they'd end up using more than half of the storage space. We can make this more finegrained later if we come up with a method for identifying the broken machines.

But there is no code to remove these files. This patch implements the function to remove them. We cannot free firmware_map_entry which is allocated by bootmem because there is no way to do so when the system is up. But we can at least remember the address of that memory and reuse the storage when the memory is added next time. This patch also introduces a new list map_entries_bootmem to link the map entries allocated by bootmem when they are removed, and a lock to protect it. And these entries will be reused when the memory is hot-added again. The idea is suggestted by Andrew Morton. NOTE: It is unsafe to return an entry pointer and release the map_entries_lock. So we should not hold the map_entries_lock separately in firmware_map_find_entry() and firmware_map_remove_entry(). Hold the map_entries_lock across find and remove /sys/firmware/memmap/X operation. And also, users of these two functions need to be careful to hold the lock when using these two functions.

Also, the workqueue is kicked in a just oops case. A system will go down in other cases such as panic, clean shutdown and emergency restart.

By applying this patch, we can avoid the problem above with a following senario. - CPUA holds an efi_var->lock with interrupt disabled. - CPUB panics and sends IPI to CPUA in smp_send_stop(). - CPUA receives the IPI after releasing the lock because it is disabling interrupt while holding the lock. - CPUB waits for one sec until CPUA releases the lock. - CPUB kicks efi_pstore_write() via kmsg_dump(KSMG_DUMP_PANIC) And it can hold the lock successfully.

| * efi_pstore: Avoid deadlock in non-blocking pathsSeiji Aguchi2013-01-111-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [Issue] There is a scenario which efi_pstore may hang up: - cpuA grabs efivars->lock - cpuB panics and calls smp_send_stop - smp_send_stop sends IRQ to cpuA - after 1 second, cpuB gives up on cpuA and sends an NMI instead - cpuA is now in an NMI handler while still holding efivars->lock - cpuB is deadlocked This case may happen if a firmware has a bug and cpuA is stuck talking with it. [Solution] This patch changes a spin_lock to a spin_trylock in non-blocking paths. and if the spin_lock has already taken by another cpu, it returns without accessing to a firmware to avoid the deadlock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Files are created in efivarfs_create() before a corresponding variable is created in the firmware. This leads to users being able to read/write to the file without the variable existing in the firmware. Reading a non-existent variable currently returns -ENOENT, which is confusing because the file obviously *does* exist. Convert EFI_NOT_FOUND into -EIO which is the closest thing to "error while interacting with firmware", and should hopefully indicate to the caller that the variable is in some uninitialised state.

Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

| * efi: Handle deletions and size changes in efivarfs_write_fileJeremy Kerr2012-10-301-10/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A write to an efivarfs file will not always result in a variable of 'count' size after the EFI SetVariable() call. We may have appended to the existing data (ie, with the EFI_VARIABLE_APPEND_WRITE attribute), or even have deleted the variable (with an authenticated variable update, with a zero datasize). This change re-reads the updated variable from firmware, to check for size changes and deletions. In the latter case, we need to drop the dentry.

| * efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystemMatthew Garrett2012-10-301-6/+378
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing EFI variables code only supports variables of up to 1024 bytes. This limitation existed in version 0.99 of the EFI specification, but was removed before any full releases. Since variables can now be larger than a single page, sysfs isn't the best interface for this. So, instead, let's add a filesystem. Variables can be read, written and created, with the first 4 bytes of each variable representing its UEFI attributes. The create() method doesn't actually commit to flash since zero-length variables can't exist per-spec. Updates from Jeremy Kerr <jeremy.kerr@canonical.com>.
