Matthew Garrett 54b3a4d311 efivars: Improve variable validation
Ben Hutchings pointed out that the validation in efivars was inadequate -
most obviously, an entry with size 0 would server as a DoS against the
kernel. Improve this based on his suggestions.

Matthew Garrett fec6c20b57 efi: Validate UEFI boot variables
A common flaw in UEFI systems is a refusal to POST triggered by a malformed
boot variable. Once in this state, machines may only be restored by
reflashing their firmware with an external hardware device. While this is
obviously a firmware bug, the serious nature of the outcome suggests that
operating systems should filter their variable writes in order to prevent
a malicious user from rendering the machine unusable.

Yinghai Lu 935a9fee51 ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFI
Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during
iscsi_ibft module loading.

Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier
- specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later

At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap.
So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address.
We could just skip that phys address printing.

For legacy one, print the found address early.

-v2: update comments and description according to Konrad.
-v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad.
-v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..

Lars-Peter Clausen 40216ce7aa ASoC: Move SigmaDSP firmware loader to ASoC
It has been pointed out previously, that the firmware subsystem is not the right
place for the SigmaDSP firmware loader. Furthermore the SigmaDSP is currently
only used in audio products and we are aiming for better integration into the
ASoC framework in the future, with support for ALSA controls for firmware
parameters and support dynamic power management as well. So the natural choice
for the SigmaDSP firmware loader is the ASoC subsystem.

The SigmaDSP firmware loader currently does not perform enough boundary size
checks when processing the firmware. As a result it is possible that a
malformed firmware can cause an out of bounds memory access.

This patch adds checks which ensure that both the action header and the payload
are completely inside the firmware data boundaries before processing them.

Kees Cook 3d6d8d20ec pstore: pass reason to backend write callback
This allows a backend to filter on the dmesg reason as well as the pstore
reason. When ramoops is switched to pstore, this is needed since it has
no interest in storing non-crash dmesg details.

Drop pstore_write() as it has no users, and handling the "reason" here
has no obviously correct value.

Kees Cook f6f8285132 pstore: pass allocated memory region back to caller
The buf_lock cannot be held while populating the inodes, so make the backend
pass forward an allocated and filled buffer instead. This solves the following
backtrace. The effect is that "buf" is only ever used to notify the backends
that something was written to it, and shouldn't be used in the read path.

To replace the buf_lock during the read path, isolate the open/read/close
loop with a separate mutex to maintain serialized access to the backend.

Note that is is up to the pstore backend to cope if the (*write)() path is
called in the middle of the read path.

Jean Delvare 66e13e66b6 drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c: make dmi_name_in_vendors more focused
The current implementation of dmi_name_in_vendors() is an invitation to
lazy coding and false positives [1].  Searching for a string in 8 know
what you're looking for, so you should know where to look.  strstr isn't
fast, especially when it fails, so we should avoid calling it when it
just can't succeed.

Looking at the current users of the function, it seems clear to me that
they are looking for a system or board vendor name, so let's limit
dmi_name_in_vendors to these two DMI fields.  This much better matches
the function name, BTW.

[1] We currently have code looking for short names in DMI data, such as
"IBM", "ASUS" or "Acer".  I let you guess what will happen the day other
vendors ship products named, for example, "SCHREIBMEISTER", "PEGASUS" or
"Acerola".

Paul Gortmaker afd605f683 drivers/firmware: Add module.h to google/gsmi.c
This file really needs the full module.h header file present, but
was just getting it implicitly before.  Fix it up in advance so we
avoid build failures once the cleanup commit is present.

Michael Chan 044aceef33 [SCSI] edd: Treat "XPRS" host bus type the same as "PCI"
PCI Express devices will return "XPRS" host bus type during BIOS EDD
call.  "XPRS" should be treated just like "PCI" so that the proper
pci_dev symlink will be created.  Scripts such as fcoe_edd.sh will
then work correctly.

Chen Gong b238b8fa93 pstore: make pstore write function return normal success/fail value
Currently pstore write interface employs record id as return
value, but it is not enough because it can't tell caller if
the write operation is successful. Pass the record id back via
an argument pointer and return zero for success, non-zero for
failure.

Don Zickus abd4d5587b pstore: change mutex locking to spin_locks
pstore was using mutex locking to protect read/write access to the
backend plug-ins.  This causes problems when pstore is executed in
an NMI context through panic() -> kmsg_dump().

This patch changes the mutex to a spin_lock_irqsave then also checks to
see if we are in an NMI context.  If we are in an NMI and can't get the
lock, just print a message stating that and blow by the locking.

All this is probably a hack around the bigger locking problem but it
solves my current situation of trying to sleep in an NMI context.

Tested by loading the lkdtm module and executing a HARDLOCKUP which
will cause the machine to panic inside the nmi handler.

Instead of open-coding the string operations for comparing the prefix of
the variable names, use the provided utf16_* string functions.

This patch also changes the calls to efi.set_variable to
efivars->ops->set_variable so that the right function gets called in the
case of gsmi (which doesn't have a valid efi structure).

As well, make sure that we only consider variables with the right vendor

Mike Christie f457a46f17 [SCSI] iscsi_ibft, be2iscsi, iscsi_boot: fix boot kobj data lifetime management
be2iscsi passes the boot functions its phba object which is
allocated in the shost, but iscsi_ibft passes in a object
allocated for each item to display. The problem is that
iscsi_boot_sysfs was managing the lifetime of the object
passed in and doing a kfree on release. This causes a double
free for be2iscsi which frees the shost in its pci_remove.

This patch fixes the problem by adding a release callback
which the drivers can call kfree or a put() type of function
(needed for be2iscsi which will do a get/put on the shost).
