The bare metal decompressor code was never really intended to run in a
hosted environment such as the EFI boot services, and does a few things
that are becoming problematic in the context of EFI boot now that the
logo requirements are getting tighter: EFI executables will no longer be
allowed to consist of a single executable section that is mapped with
read, write and execute permissions if they are intended for use in a
context where Secure Boot is enabled (and where Microsoft's set of
certificates is used, i.e., every x86 PC built to run Windows).
To avoid stepping on reserved memory before having inspected the E820
tables, and to ensure the correct placement when running a kernel build
that is non-relocatable, the bare metal decompressor moves its own
executable image to the end of the allocation that was reserved for it,
in order to perform the decompression in place. This means the region in
question requires both write and execute permissions, which either need
to be given upfront (which EFI will no longer permit), or need to be
applied on demand using the existing page fault handling framework.
However, the physical placement of the kernel is usually randomized
anyway, and even if it isn't, a dedicated decompression output buffer
can be allocated anywhere in memory using EFI APIs when still running in
the boot services, given that EFI support already implies a relocatable
kernel. This means that decompression in place is never necessary, nor
is moving the compressed image from one end to the other.
Since EFI already maps all of memory 1:1, it is also unnecessary to
create new page tables or handle page faults when decompressing the
kernel. That means there is also no need to replace the special
exception handlers for SEV. Generally, there is little need to do
any of the things that the decompressor does beyond
- initialize SEV encryption, if needed,
- perform the 4/5 level paging switch, if needed,
- decompress the kernel
- relocate the kernel
So do all of this from the EFI stub code, and avoid the bare metal
decompressor altogether.

Before refactoring the EFI stub boot flow to avoid the legacy bare metal
decompressor, duplicate the SNP feature check in the EFI stub before
handing over to the kernel proper.
The SNP feature check can be performed while running under the EFI boot
services, which means it can force the boot to fail gracefully and
return an error to the bootloader if the loaded kernel does not
implement support for all the features that the hypervisor enabled.

It is no longer necessary to be cautious when referring to global
variables in the position independent decompressor code, now that it is
built using PIE codegen and makes an assertion in the linker script that
no GOT entries exist (which would require adjustment for the actual
runtime load address of the decompressor binary).
This means global variables can be referenced directly from C code,
instead of having to pass their runtime addresses into C routines from
asm code, which needs to happen at each call site. Do so for the code
that will be called directly from the EFI stub after a subsequent patch,
and avoid the need to duplicate this logic a third time.

The only remaining use of the trampoline address by the trampoline
itself is deriving the page table address from it, and this involves
adding an offset of 0x0. So simplify this, and pass the new CR3 value
directly.
This makes the fact that the page table happens to be at the start of
the trampoline allocation an implementation detail of the caller.

Since the current and desired number of paging levels are known when the
trampoline is being prepared, avoid calling the trampoline at all if it
is clear that calling it is not going to result in a change to the
number of paging levels.
Given that the CPU is already running in long mode, the PAE and LA57
settings are necessarily consistent with the currently active page
tables, and other fields in CR4 will be initialized by the startup code
in the kernel proper. So limit the manipulation of CR4 to toggling the
LA57 bit, which is the only thing that really needs doing at this point
in the boot. This also means that there is no need to pass the value of
l5_required to toggle_la57(), as it will not be called unless CR4.LA57
needs to toggle.

Instead of returning to the asm calling code to invoke the trampoline,
call it straight from the C code that sets it up. That way, the struct
return type is no longer needed for returning two values, and the call
can be made conditional more cleanly in a subsequent patch.
This means that all callee save 64-bit registers need to be preserved
and restored, as their contents may not survive the legacy mode switch.

The 32-bit trampoline no longer uses the stack for anything except
performing a far return back to long mode, and preserving the caller's
stack pointer value. Currently, the trampoline stack is placed in the
same page that carries the trampoline code, which means this page must
be mapped writable and executable, and the stack is therefore executable
as well.
Replace the far return with a far jump, so that the return address can
be pre-calculated and patched into the code before it is called. This
removes the need for a 32-bit addressable stack entirely, and in a later
patch, this will be taken advantage of by removing writable permissions
from (and adding executable permissions to) the trampoline code page
when booting via the EFI stub.
Note that the value of RSP still needs to be preserved explicitly across
the switch into 32-bit mode, as the register may get truncated to 32
bits.

While at it, reorganize the code somewhat to keep the prologue and

The so-called EFI handover protocol is value-add from the distros that
permits a loader to simply copy a PE kernel image into memory and call
an alternative entrypoint that is described by an embedded boot_params
structure.
Most implementations of this protocol do not bother to check the PE
header for minimum alignment, section placement, etc, and therefore also
don't clear the image's BSS, or even allocate enough memory for it.
Allocating more memory on the fly is rather difficult, but at least
clear the BSS region explicitly when entering in this manner, so that
the EFI stub code does not get confused by global variables that were
not zero-initialized correctly.
When booting in mixed mode, this BSS clearing must occur before any
global state is created, so clear it in the 32-bit asm entry point.

The native 32-bit or 64-bit EFI handover protocol entrypoint offset
relative to the respective startup_32/64 address is described in
boot_params as handover_offset, so that the special Linux/x86 aware EFI
loader can find it there.
When mixed mode is enabled, this single field has to describe this
offset for both the 32-bit and 64-bit entrypoints, so their respective
relative offsets have to be identical. Given that startup_32 and
startup_64 are 0x200 bytes apart, and the EFI handover entrypoint
resides at a fixed offset, the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of those
entrypoints must be exactly 0x200 bytes apart as well.
Currently, hard-coded fixed offsets are used to ensure this, but it is
sufficient to emit the 64-bit entrypoint 0x200 bytes after the 32-bit
one, wherever it happens to reside. This allows this code (which is now
EFI mixed mode specific) to be moved into efi_mixed.S and out of the
startup code in head_64.S.

Now that the EFI entry code in assembler is only used by the optional
and deprecated EFI handover protocol, and given that the EFI stub C code
no longer returns to it, most of it can simply be dropped.
While at it, clarify the symbol naming, by merging efi_main() and
efi_stub_entry(), making the latter the shared entry point for all
different boot modes that enter via the EFI stub.
The efi32_stub_entry() and efi64_stub_entry() names are referenced
explicitly by the tooling that populates the setup header, so these must
be retained, but can be emitted as aliases of efi_stub_entry() where
appropriate.

The 4-to-5 level mode switch trampoline disables long mode and paging in

Given that RBP, RBX and RSI are live at this point, preserve them on the

Tao Liu reported a boot hang on an Intel Atom machine due to an unmapped
EFI config table. The reason being that the CC blob which contains the
CPUID page for AMD SNP guests is parsed for before even checking
whether the machine runs on AMD hardware.
Usually that's not a problem on !AMD hw - it simply won't find the CC
blob's GUID and return. However, if any parts of the config table
pointers array is not mapped, the kernel will #PF very early in the
decompressor stage without any opportunity to recover.
Therefore, do a superficial CPUID check before poking for the CC blob.
This will fix the current issue on real hardware. It would also work as
a guest on a non-lying hypervisor.
For the lying hypervisor, the check is done again, *after* parsing the
CC blob as the real CPUID page will be present then.
Clear the #VC handler in case SEV-{ES,SNP} hasn't been detected, as
a precaution.

The Linux build process on x86 roughly consists of compiling all input
files, statically linking them into a vmlinux ELF file, and then taking
and turning this file into an actual bzImage bootable file.
vmlinux has in this process two main purposes:
1) It is an intermediate build target on the way to produce the final
bootable image.
2) It is a file that is expected to be used by debuggers and standard
ELF tooling to work with the built kernel.
For the second purpose, a vmlinux file is typically collected by various
package build recipes, such as distribution spec files, including the
kernel's own tar-pkg target.
When building a kernel supporting KASLR with CONFIG_X86_NEED_RELOCS,
vmlinux contains also relocation information produced by using the
--emit-relocs linker option. This is utilized by subsequent build steps
to create vmlinux.relocs and produce a relocatable image. However, the
information is not needed by debuggers and other standard ELF tooling.
The issue is then that the collected vmlinux file and hence distribution
packages end up unnecessarily large because of this extra data. The
following is a size comparison of vmlinux v6.0 with and without the
relocation information:
| Configuration | With relocs | Stripped relocs |
| x86_64_defconfig | 70 MB | 43 MB |
| +CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO | 818 MB | 367 MB |
Optimize a resulting vmlinux by adding a postlink step that splits the
relocation information into vmlinux.relocs and then strips it from the
vmlinux binary.

to support booting SNP guests when unaccepted memory is present. Without
this support, SNP guests will fail to boot and/or panic() when unaccepted
memory is present in the EFI memory map.
The process of accepting memory under SNP involves invoking the hypervisor
to perform a page state change for the page to private memory and then
issuing a PVALIDATE instruction to accept the page.
Since the boot path and the core kernel paths perform similar operations,
move the pvalidate_pages() and vmgexit_psc() functions into sev-shared.c
to avoid code duplication.
Create the new header file arch/x86/boot/compressed/sev.h because adding
the function declaration to any of the existing SEV related header files
pulls in too many other header files, causing the build to fail.

Hookup TDX-specific code to accept memory.
Accepting the memory is done with ACCEPT_PAGE module call on every page
in the range. MAP_GPA hypercall is not required as the unaccepted memory
is considered private already.
Extract the part of tdx_enc_status_changed() that does memory acceptance
in a new helper. Move the helper tdx-shared.c. It is going to be used by
both main kernel and decompressor.

The firmware will pre-accept the memory used to run the stub. But, the
stub is responsible for accepting the memory into which it decompresses
the main kernel. Accept memory just before decompression starts.
The stub is also responsible for choosing a physical address in which to
place the decompressed kernel image. The KASLR mechanism will randomize
this physical address. Since the accepted memory region is relatively
small, KASLR would be quite ineffective if it only used the pre-accepted
area (EFI_CONVENTIONAL_MEMORY). Ensure that KASLR randomizes among the
entire physical address space by also including EFI_UNACCEPTED_MEMORY.

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.

TDX reuses VMEXIT "reasons" in its guest->host hypercall ABI. This is
confusing because there might not be a VMEXIT involved at *all*.
These instances are supposed to document situation and reduce confusion
by wrapping VMEXIT reasons with hcall_func().
The decompression code does not follow this convention.
Unify the TDX decompression code with the other TDX use of VMEXIT reasons.
No functional changes.

While discussing to change the visibility of X86_FEATURE_NAMES (see Link)
in order to remove CONFIG_EMBEDDED, Boris suggested to simply make the

As the need for really tiny kernel images has gone away and kernel images
with !X86_FEATURE_NAMES are hardly tested, remove this config and the whole

The hypervisor can enable various new features (SEV_FEATURES[1:63]) and start a
SNP guest. Some of these features need guest side implementation. If any of
these features are enabled without it, the behavior of the SNP guest will be
undefined. It may fail booting in a non-obvious way making it difficult to
debug.
Instead of allowing the guest to continue and have it fail randomly later,
detect this early and fail gracefully.
The SEV_STATUS MSR indicates features which the hypervisor has enabled. While
booting, SNP guests should ascertain that all the enabled features have guest
side implementation. In case a feature is not implemented in the guest, the
guest terminates booting with GHCB protocol Non-Automatic Exit(NAE) termination
request event, see "SEV-ES Guest-Hypervisor Communication Block Standardization"
document (currently at https://developer.amd.com/wp-content/resources/56421.pdf),

After commit ce697ccee1a8 ("kbuild: remove head-y syntax"), I
started digging whether x86 is ready for removing this old cruft.
Removing its objects from the list makes the kernel unbootable.
This applies only to bzImage, vmlinux still works correctly.
The reason is that with no strict object order determined by the
linker arguments, not the linker script, startup_64 can be placed
not right at the beginning of the kernel.
Here's vmlinux.map's beginning before removing:
ffffffff81000000 vmlinux.o:(.head.text)
ffffffff81000000 startup_64
ffffffff81000070 secondary_startup_64
ffffffff81000075 secondary_startup_64_no_verify
ffffffff81000160 verify_cpu
and after:
ffffffff81000000 vmlinux.o:(.head.text)
ffffffff81000000 pvh_start_xen
ffffffff81000080 startup_64
ffffffff810000f0 secondary_startup_64
ffffffff810000f5 secondary_startup_64_no_verify
Not a problem itself, but the self-extractor code has the address of
that function hardcoded the beginning, not looking onto the ELF
header, which always contains the address of startup_{32,64}().
So, instead of doing an "act of blind faith", just take the address
from the ELF header and extract a relative offset to the entry
point. The decompressor function already returns a pointer to the
beginning of the kernel to the Asm code, which then jumps to it,
so add that offset to the return value.
This doesn't change anything for now, but allows to resign from the
"head object list" for x86 and makes sure valid Kbuild or any other
improvements won't break anything here in general.

been long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets applied,
it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track the call depth
of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific value
for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and avoids its
underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant of Retbleed.

GRUB currently relies on the magic number in the image header of ARM and
arm64 EFI kernel images to decide whether or not the image in question
is a bootable kernel.
However, the purpose of the magic number is to identify the image as one
that implements the bare metal boot protocol, and so GRUB, which only
does EFI boot, is limited unnecessarily to booting images that could
potentially be booted in a non-EFI manner as well.
This is problematic for the new zboot decompressor image format, as it
can only boot in EFI mode, and must therefore not use the bare metal
boot magic number in its header.
For this reason, the strict magic number was dropped from GRUB, to
permit essentially any kind of EFI executable to be booted via the
'linux' command, blurring the line between the linux loader and the
chainloader.
So let's use the same field in the DOS header that RISC-V and arm64
already use for their 'bare metal' magic numbers to store a 'generic
Linux kernel' magic number, which can be used to identify bootable
kernel images in PE format which don't necessarily implement a bare
metal boot protocol in the same binary. Note that, in the context of
EFI, the MS-DOS header is only described in terms of the fields that it
shares with the hybrid PE/COFF image format, (i.e., the MS-DOS EXE magic
number at offset #0 and the PE header offset at byte offset #0x3c).
Since we aim for compatibility with EFI only, and not with MS-DOS or
MS-Windows, we can use the remaining space in the MS-DOS header however
we want.
Let's set the generic magic number for x86 images as well: existing
bootloaders already have their own methods to identify x86 Linux images
that can be booted in a non-EFI manner, and having the magic number in
place there will ease any future transitions in loader implementations
to merge the x86 and non-x86 EFI boot paths.
Note that 32-bit ARM already uses the same location in the header for a
different purpose, but the ARM support is already widely implemented and
the EFI zboot decompressor is not available on ARM anyway, so we just
disregard it here.

The currently supported minimum gcc version is 5.1. Before that, the
PIC register, when generating Position Independent Code, was considered
"fixed" in the sense that it wasn't in the set of registers available to
the compiler's register allocator. Which, on x86-32, is already a very
small set.
What is more, the register allocator was unable to satisfy extended asm
"=b" constraints. (Yes, PIC code uses %ebx on 32-bit as the base reg.)
With gcc 5.1:
"Reuse of the PIC hard register, instead of using a fixed register,
was implemented on x86/x86-64 targets. This improves generated PIC
code performance as more hard registers can be used. Shared libraries
can significantly benefit from this optimization. Currently it is
switched on only for x86/x86-64 targets. As RA infrastructure is already
implemented for PIC register reuse, other targets might follow this in
the future."
(from: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html)
which basically means that the register allocator has a higher degree
of freedom when handling %ebx, including reloading it with the correct
value before a PIC access.
Furthermore:
arch/x86/Makefile:
# Never want PIC in a 32-bit kernel, prevent breakage with GCC built
# with nonstandard options
KBUILD_CFLAGS += -fno-pic
$ gcc -Wp,-MMD,arch/x86/boot/.cpuflags.o.d ... -fno-pic ... -D__KBUILD_MODNAME=kmod_cpuflags -c -o arch/x86/boot/cpuflags.o arch/x86/boot/cpuflags.c
so the 32-bit workaround in cpuid_count() is fixing exactly nothing
because 32-bit configs don't even allow PIC builds.
As to 64-bit builds: they're done using -mcmodel=kernel which produces
RIP-relative addressing for PIC builds and thus does not apply here
either.
So get rid of the thing and make cpuid_count() nice and simple.
There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

The EFI handover protocol permits a bootloader to invoke the kernel as a
EFI PE/COFF application, while passing a bootparams struct as a third
argument to the entrypoint function call.
This has no basis in the UEFI specification, and there are better ways
to pass additional data to a UEFI application (UEFI configuration
tables, UEFI variables, UEFI protocols) than going around the
StartImage() boot service and jumping to a fixed offset in the loaded
image, just to call a different function that takes a third parameter.
The reason for handling struct bootparams in the bootloader was that the
EFI stub could only load initrd images from the EFI system partition,
and so passing it via struct bootparams was needed for loaders like
GRUB, which pass the initrd in memory, and may load it from anywhere,
including from the network. Another motivation was EFI mixed mode, which
could not use the initrd loader in the EFI stub at all due to 32/64 bit
incompatibilities (which will be fixed shortly [0]), and could not
invoke the ordinary PE/COFF entry point either, for the same reasons.
Given that loaders such as GRUB already carried the bootparams handling
in order to implement non-EFI boot, retaining that code and just passing
bootparams to the EFI stub was a reasonable choice (although defining an
alternate entrypoint could have been avoided.) However, the GRUB side
changes never made it upstream, and are only shipped by some of the
distros in their downstream versions.
In the meantime, EFI support has been added to other Linux architecture
ports, as well as to U-boot and systemd, including arch-agnostic methods
for passing initrd images in memory [1], and for doing mixed mode boot
[2], none of them requiring anything like the EFI handover protocol. So
given that only out-of-tree distro GRUB relies on this, let's permit it
to be omitted from the build, in preparation for retiring it completely
at a later date. (Note that systemd-boot does have an implementation as
well, but only uses it as a fallback for booting images that do not
implement the LoadFile2 based initrd loading method, i.e., v5.8 or older)
