2014-02-15firmware: google memconsole driver fixesMichel Lespinasse
The google memconsole driver is currently broken upstream, as it tries to read memory that is described as reserved in /proc/iomem, by dereferencing a pointer obtained through phys_to_virt(). This triggers a kernel fault as such regions are unmapped after early boot. The proper workaround is to use ioremap_cache() / iounmap() around such accesses. As some unrelated changes, I also converted some printks to use pr_info() and added some missing __init annotations. Tested: booted dbg build, verified I could read /sys/firmware/log Signed-off-by: Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Acked-by: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2014-02-15firmware: fix google/gsmi duplicate efivars_sysfs_init()Michel Lespinasse
Starting in commit e14ab23dde12b80db4c94b684a2e485b72b16af3, efivars_sysfs_init() is called both by itself as an init function, and by drivers/firmware/google/gsmi.c gsmi_init(). This results in runtime warnings such as the following: [ 5.651330] WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:530 sysfs_add_one+0xbd/0xe0() [ 5.657699] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/firmware/gsmi/vars' Fixing this by removing the redundant efivars_sysfs_init() call in gsmi_init(). Tested: booted, checked that /firmware/gsmi/vars was still present and showed the expected contents.

2014-01-27firmware/google: drop 'select EFI' to avoid recursive dependencyArd Biesheuvel
The GOOGLE_SMI Kconfig symbol depends on DMI and selects EFI. This causes problems on other archs when introducing DMI support that depends on EFI, as it results in a recursive dependency: arch/arm/Kconfig:1845:error: recursive dependency detected! arch/arm/Kconfig:1845: symbol DMI depends on EFI Fix by changing the 'select EFI' to a 'depends on EFI'.

2013-10-31DMA-API: firmware/google/gsmi.c: avoid direct access to DMA masksRussell King
This driver doesn't need to directly access DMA masks if it uses the platform_device_register_full() API rather than platform_device_register_simple() - the former function can initialize the DMA mask appropriately. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2013-04-17efivars: efivar_entry APIMatt Fleming
There isn't really a formal interface for dealing with EFI variables or struct efivar_entry. Historically, this has led to various bits of code directly accessing the generic EFI variable ops, which inherently ties it to specific EFI variable operations instead of indirectly using whatever ops were registered with register_efivars(). This lead to the efivarfs code only working with the generic EFI variable ops and not CONFIG_GOOGLE_SMI. Encapsulate everything that needs to access '__efivars' inside an efivar_entry_* API and use the new API in the pstore, sysfs and efivarfs code. Much of the efivars code had to be rewritten to use this new API. For instance, it is now up to the users of the API to build the initial list of EFI variables in their efivar_init() callback function. The variable list needs to be passed to efivar_init() which allows us to keep work arounds for things like implementation bugs in GetNextVariable() in a central location. Allowing users of the API to use a callback function to build the list greatly benefits the efivarfs code which needs to allocate inodes and dentries for every variable. It previously did this in a racy way because the code ran without holding the variable spinlock. Both the sysfs and efivarfs code maintain their own lists which means the two interfaces can be running simultaneously without interference, though it should be noted that because no synchronisation is performed it is very easy to create inconsistencies. efibootmgr doesn't currently use efivarfs and users are likely to also require the old sysfs interface, so it makes sense to allow both to be built.

2011-04-29driver: Google Memory ConsoleMike Waychison
This patch introduces the 'memconsole' driver. Our firmware gives us access to an in-memory log of the firmware's output. This gives us visibility in a data-center of headless machines as to what the firmware is doing. The memory console is found by the driver by finding a header block in the EBDA. The buffer is then copied out, and is exported to userland in the file /sys/firmware/log.

2011-04-29driver: Google EFI SMIMike Waychison
The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for accessing hardware. Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information. Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used. This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various limitations over time, but all are included herein. This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM strings of the FADT ACPI table. This logic happens in gsmi_system_valid().
