2026-05-05x86/efi: Restore IRQ state in EFI page fault handlerArd Biesheuvel1-1/+10
The kernel's softirq API does not permit re-enabling softirqs while IRQs are disabled. The reason for this is that local_bh_enable() will not only re-enable delivery of softirqs over the back of IRQs, it will also handle any pending softirqs immediately, regardless of whether IRQs are enabled at that point. For this reason, commit d02198550423 ("x86/fpu: Improve crypto performance by making kernel-mode FPU reliably usable in softirqs") disables softirqs only when IRQs are enabled, as it is not permitted otherwise, but also unnecessary, given that asynchronous softirq delivery never happens to begin with while IRQs are disabled. However, this does mean that entering a kernel mode FPU section with IRQs enabled and leaving it with IRQs disabled leads to problems, as identified by Sashiko [0]: the EFI page fault handler is called from page_fault_oops() with IRQs disabled, and thus ends the kernel mode FPU section with IRQs disabled as well, regardless of whether IRQs were enabled when it was started. This may result in schedule() being called with a non-zero preempt_count, causing a BUG(). So take care to re-enable IRQs when handling any EFI page faults if they were taken with IRQs enabled.

2026-05-04x86/efi: Fix graceful fault handling after FPU softirq changesIvan Hu1-1/+1
Since commit d02198550423 ("x86/fpu: Improve crypto performance by making kernel-mode FPU reliably usable in softirqs"), kernel_fpu_begin() calls fpregs_lock() which uses local_bh_disable() instead of the previous preempt_disable(). This sets SOFTIRQ_OFFSET in preempt_count during the entire EFI runtime service call, causing in_interrupt() to return true in normal task context. The graceful page fault handler efi_crash_gracefully_on_page_fault() uses in_interrupt() to bail out for faults in real interrupt context. With SOFTIRQ_OFFSET now set, the handler always bails out, leaving EFI firmware page faults unhandled. This escalates to die() which also sees in_interrupt() as true and calls panic("Fatal exception in interrupt"), resulting in a hard system freeze. On systems with buggy firmware that triggers page faults during EFI runtime calls (e.g., accessing unmapped memory in GetTime()), this causes an unrecoverable hang instead of the expected graceful EFI_ABORTED recovery. Fix by replacing in_interrupt() with !in_task(). This preserves the original intent of bailing for interrupts or NMI faults, while no longer falsely triggering from the FPU code path's local_bh_disable().

Instead, use !in_task(), which incorporates in_serving_softirq(). ] Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

2026-03-03x86/efi: Disable LASS while executing runtime servicesSohil Mehta1-0/+35
Ideally, EFI runtime services should switch to kernel virtual addresses after SetVirtualAddressMap(). However, firmware implementations are known to be buggy in this regard and continue to access physical addresses. The kernel maintains a 1:1 mapping of all runtime services code and data regions to avoid breaking such firmware. LASS enforcement relies on bit 63 of the virtual address, which would block such accesses to the lower half. Unfortunately, not doing anything could lead to #GP faults when users update to a kernel with LASS enabled. One option is to use a STAC/CLAC pair to temporarily disable LASS data enforcement. However, there is no guarantee that the stray accesses would only touch data and not perform instruction fetches. Also, relying on the AC bit would depend on the runtime calls preserving RFLAGS, which is highly unlikely in practice. Instead, use the big hammer and switch off the entire LASS mechanism temporarily by clearing CR4.LASS. Runtime services are called in the context of efi_mm, which has explicitly unmapped any memory EFI isn't allowed to touch (including userspace). So, do this right after switching to efi_mm to avoid any security impact. Some runtime services can be invoked during boot when LASS isn't active. Use a global variable (similar to efi_mm) to save and restore the correct CR4.LASS state. The runtime calls are serialized with the efi_runtime_lock, so no concurrency issues are expected.

2026-02-25x86/efi: defer freeing of boot services memoryMike Rapoport (Microsoft)2-4/+53
efi_free_boot_services() frees memory occupied by EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE and EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA using memblock_free_late(). There are two issue with that: memblock_free_late() should be used for memory allocated with memblock_alloc() while the memory reserved with memblock_reserve() should be freed with free_reserved_area(). More acutely, with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y efi_free_boot_services() is called before deferred initialization of the memory map is complete. Benjamin Herrenschmidt reports that this causes a leak of ~140MB of RAM on EC2 t3a.nano instances which only have 512MB or RAM. If the freed memory resides in the areas that memory map for them is still uninitialized, they won't be actually freed because memblock_free_late() calls memblock_free_pages() and the latter skips uninitialized pages. Using free_reserved_area() at this point is also problematic because __free_page() accesses the buddy of the freed page and that again might end up in uninitialized part of the memory map. Delaying the entire efi_free_boot_services() could be problematic because in addition to freeing boot services memory it updates efi.memmap without any synchronization and that's undesirable late in boot when there is concurrency. More robust approach is to only defer freeing of the EFI boot services memory. Split efi_free_boot_services() in two. First efi_unmap_boot_services() collects ranges that should be freed into an array then efi_free_boot_services() later frees them after deferred init is complete.

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds1-2/+2
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

2025-12-14x86/boot/e820: Simplify the e820__range_remove() APIIngo Molnar1-2/+1
Right now e820__range_remove() has two parameters to control the E820 type of the range removed: extern void e820__range_remove(u64 start, u64 size, enum e820_type old_type, bool check_type); Since E820 types start at 1, zero has a natural meaning of 'no type. Consolidate the (old_type,check_type) parameters into a single (filter_type) parameter: extern void e820__range_remove(u64 start, u64 size, enum e820_type filter_type); Note that both e820__mapped_raw_any() and e820__mapped_any() already have such semantics for their 'type' parameter, although it's currently not used with '0' by in-kernel code. Also, the __e820__mapped_all() internal helper already has such semantics implemented as well, and the e820__get_entry_type() API uses the '0' type to such effect. This simplifies not just e820__range_remove(), and synchronizes its use of type filters with other E820 API functions, but simplifies usage sites as well, such as parse_memmap_one(), beyond the reduction of the number of parameters: - else if (from) - e820__range_remove(start_at, mem_size, from, 1); else - e820__range_remove(start_at, mem_size, 0, 0); + e820__range_remove(start_at, mem_size, from); The generated code gets smaller as well: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/5 up/down: 0/-66 (-66) Function old new delta parse_memopt 112 107 -5 efi_init 1048 1039 -9 setup_arch 2719 2709 -10 e820__range_remove 283 273 -10 parse_memmap_opt 559 527 -32 Total: Before=22,675,600, After=22,675,534, chg -0.00% Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: H .

2025-04-23x86/mm: Fix _pgd_alloc() for Xen PV modeJuergen Gross1-2/+2
Recently _pgd_alloc() was switched from using __get_free_pages() to pagetable_alloc_noprof(), which might return a compound page in case the allocation order is larger than 0. On x86 this will be the case if CONFIG_MITIGATION_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION is set, even if PTI has been disabled at runtime. When running as a Xen PV guest (this will always disable PTI), using a compound page for a PGD will result in VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS being triggered when the Xen code tries to pin the PGD. Fix the Xen issue together with the not needed 8k allocation for a PGD with PTI disabled by replacing PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER with an inline helper returning the needed order for PGD allocations.

efi_memattr_init() added a sanity check to avoid firmware caused corruption. The check is based on efi memmap entry numbers, but kexec only takes the runtime related memmap entries thus this caused many false warnings, see below thread for details: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250108215957.3437660-2-usamaarif642@gmail.com/ Ard suggests to skip the efi memattr table in kexec, this makes sense because those memattr fixups are not critical.

Kexec bypasses EFI's switch to virtual mode. In exchange, it has its own routine, kexec_enter_virtual_mode(), which replays the mappings made by the original kernel. Unfortunately, that function fails to reinstate EFI's memory attributes, which would've otherwise been set after entering virtual mode.

2024-07-02x86/efi: Drop support for fake EFI memory mapsArd Biesheuvel4-200/+1
Between kexec and confidential VM support, handling the EFI memory maps correctly on x86 is already proving to be rather difficult (as opposed to other EFI architectures which manage to never modify the EFI memory map to begin with) EFI fake memory map support is essentially a development hack (for testing new support for the 'special purpose' and 'more reliable' EFI memory attributes) that leaked into production code. The regions marked in this manner are not actually recognized as such by the firmware itself or the EFI stub (and never have), and marking memory as 'more reliable' seems rather futile if the underlying memory is just ordinary RAM. Marking memory as 'special purpose' in this way is also dubious, but may be in use in production code nonetheless. However, the same should be achievable by using the memmap= command line option with the ! operator. EFI fake memmap support is not enabled by any of the major distros (Debian, Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu) and does not exist on other architectures, so let's drop support for it.

2024-06-15efi/x86: Free EFI memory map only when installing a new one.Ard Biesheuvel1-1/+11
The logic in __efi_memmap_init() is shared between two different execution flows: - mapping the EFI memory map early or late into the kernel VA space, so that its entries can be accessed; - the x86 specific cloning of the EFI memory map in order to insert new entries that are created as a result of making a memory reservation via a call to efi_mem_reserve(). In the former case, the underlying memory containing the kernel's view of the EFI memory map (which may be heavily modified by the kernel itself on x86) is not modified at all, and the only thing that changes is the virtual mapping of this memory, which is different between early and late boot. In the latter case, an entirely new allocation is created that carries a new, updated version of the kernel's view of the EFI memory map. When installing this new version, the old version will no longer be referenced, and if the memory was allocated by the kernel, it will leak unless it gets freed. The logic that implements this freeing currently lives on the code path that is shared between these two use cases, but it should only apply to the latter. So move it to the correct spot. While at it, drop the dummy definition for non-x86 architectures, as that is no longer needed.

2023-06-30x86/efi: Make efi_set_virtual_address_map IBT safeThomas Gleixner1-3/+3
Niklāvs reported a boot regression on an Alderlake machine and bisected it to commit 9df9d2f0471b ("init: Invoke arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier"). By moving the invocation of arch_cpu_finalize_init() further down he identified that efi_enter_virtual_mode() is the function which causes the boot hang. The main difference of the earlier invocation is that the boot CPU is already fully initialized and mitigations and alternatives are applied. But the only really interesting change turned out to be IBT, which is now enabled before efi_enter_virtual_mode(). "ibt=off" on the kernel command line cured the problem. Inspection of the involved calls in efi_enter_virtual_mode() unearthed that efi_set_virtual_address_map() is the only place in the kernel which invokes an EFI call without the IBT safe wrapper. This went obviously unnoticed so far as IBT was enabled later. Use arch_efi_call_virt() instead of efi_call() to cure that.

When writing EFI variables, one might get errors with no other message on why it fails. Being able to see how much is used by EFI variables helps analyzing such issues. Since this is not a conventional filesystem, block size is intentionally set to 1 instead of PAGE_SIZE. x86 quirks of reserved size are taken into account; so that available and free size can be different, further helping debugging space issues.

We currently pass a minimum major version to the generic EFI helper that checks the system table magic and version, and refuse to boot if the value is lower. The motivation for this check is unknown, and even the code that uses major version 2 as the minimum (ARM, arm64 and RISC-V) should make it past this check without problems, and boot to a point where we have access to a console or some other means to inform the user that the firmware's major revision number made us unhappy. (Revision 2.0 of the UEFI specification was released in January 2006, whereas ARM, arm64 and RISC-V support where added in 2009, 2013 and 2017, respectively, so checking for major version 2 or higher is completely arbitrary) So just drop the check.

Previously, if these Ports lacked MSI/MSI-X, portdrv failed to bind, which meant the Ports couldn't be suspended to low-power states. AER on these Ports doesn't use interrupts, and the AER driver doesn't need to claim them. - Assign PCI domain IDs using ida_alloc(), which makes host bridge add/remove work better. Resource management: - To work better with recent BIOSes that use EfiMemoryMappedIO for PCI host bridge apertures, remove those regions from the E820 map (E820 entries normally prevent us from allocating BARs). In v5.19, we added some quirks to disable E820 checking, but that's not very maintainable. EfiMemoryMappedIO means the OS needs to map the region for use by EFI runtime services; it shouldn't prevent OS from using it. PCIe native device hotplug: - Build pciehp by default if USB4 is enabled, since Thunderbolt/USB4 PCIe tunneling depends on native PCIe hotplug. - Enable Command Completed Interrupt only if supported to avoid user confusion from lspci output that says this is enabled but not supported. - Prevent pciehp from binding to Switch Upstream Ports; this happen
