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.

In order for other archs (such as arm64) to be able to reuse the virtual mode function call wrappers, move them to drivers/firmware/efi/runtime-wrappers.c. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

kexec kernel will need exactly same mapping for EFI runtime memory ranges. Thus here export the runtime ranges mapping to sysfs, kexec-tools will assemble them and pass to 2nd kernel via setup_data. Introducing a new directory /sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map just like /sys/firmware/memmap. Containing below attribute in each file of that directory: attribute num_pages phys_addr type virt_addr Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Tested-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Commit 7ea6c6c1 ("Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to drivers/firmware/efi") results in CONFIG_EFI being enabled even when the user doesn't want this. Since ACPI APEI used to build fine without UEFI (and as far as I know also has no functional depency on it), at least in that case using a reverse dependency is wrong (and a straight one isn't needed). Whether the same is true for ACPI_EXTLOG I don't know - if there is a functional dependency, it should depend on EFI rather than selecting it. It certainly has (currently) no build dependency. Adjust Kconfig and build logic so that the bad dependency gets avoided.

cper.c contains code to decode and print "Common Platform Error Records". Originally added under drivers/acpi/apei because the only user was in that same directory - but now we have another consumer, and we shouldn't have to force CONFIG_ACPI_APEI get access to this code. Since CPER is defined in the UEFI specification - the logical home for this code is under drivers/firmware/efi/ Acked-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

This registers /sys/firmware/efi/{,systab,efivars/} whenever EFI is enabled and the system is booted with EFI. This allows *) userspace to check for the existence of /sys/firmware/efi as a way to determine whether or it is running on an EFI system. *) 'mount -t efivarfs none /sys/firmware/efi/efivars' without manually loading any modules. [ Also, move the efivar API into vars.c and unconditionally compile it. This allows us to move efivars.c, which now only contains the sysfs variable code, into the firmware/efi directory. Note that the efivars.c filename is kept to maintain backwards compatability with the old efivars.ko module. With this patch it is now possible for efivarfs to be built without CONFIG_EFI_VARS - Matt ] Cc: Seiji Aguchi <seiji.aguchi@hds.com> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Cc: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org> Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org> Cc: Chun-Yi Lee <jlee@suse.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Cc: Tobias Powalowski <tpowa@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

efivars.c has grown far too large and needs to be divided up. Create a new directory and move the persistence storage code to efi-pstore.c now that it uses the new efivar API. This helps us to greatly reduce the size of efivars.c and paves the way for moving other code out of efivars.c. Note that because CONFIG_EFI_VARS can be built as a module efi-pstore must also include support for building as a module.
