Tony Luck b728a5c806 efivars: fix warnings when CONFIG_PSTORE=n
drivers/firmware/efivars.c:161: warning: ‘utf16_strlen’ defined but not used
utf16_strlen() is only used inside CONFIG_PSTORE - make this "static inline"
to shut the compiler up [thanks to hpa for the suggestion].

drivers/firmware/efivars.c:602: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
Between v1 and v2 of this patch series we decided to make the "part" number
unsigned - but missed fixing the stub version of efi_pstore_write()

Mike Waychison c475594d83 efivars: Use string functions in pstore_write
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
string.

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).

Mike Waychison e561bc4592 driver: Google Memory Console
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.

Mike Waychison 74c5b31c66 driver: Google EFI SMI
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().

Gleb Natapov 0c61227094 x86, setup: Fix EDD3.0 data verification.
Check for nonzero path in edd_has_edd30() has no sense. First, it looks
at the wrong memory. Device path starts at offset 30 of the info->params
structure which is at offset 8 from the beginning of info structure,
but code looks at info + 4 instead. This was correct when code was
introduced, but around v2.6.4 three more fields were added to edd_info
structure (commit 66b61a5c in history.git). Second, even if it will check
correct memory it will always succeed since at offset 30 (params->key)
there will be non-zero values otherwise previous check would fail.

The patch replaces this bogus check with one that verifies checksum.

Broadcom iscsi offload firmware uses a non standard ibft sign of "BIFT".
When we added support for boot, the anaconda team and I were using
older firmware (I guess 4 years old), so boot does not work on current
cards.

This patch modifies the ibft search code to search for "BIFT" along
with the other possible values.

Broadcom has tested the patch and reported it works with their
firmware. Mike has tested Chelsio and Intel cards.

Mike Waychison 4142ef146a efivars: parameterize efivars
Now that we all global variable state is encapsulated by struct efivars,
parameterize all functions to the efivars local to the control flow rather
than at file scope.  We do this by removing the variable "efivars" at file
scope and move its storage down to the end of the file.

Variables get at efivars by storing the efivars pointer within each
efivar_entry.  The "new_var" and "del_var" binary attribute files get at
the efivars through the private pointer.

Stuart Hayes dd65c736d1 dcdbas: force SMI to happen when expected
The dcdbas driver can do an I/O write to cause a SMI to occur.  The SMI handler
looks at certain registers and memory locations, so the SMI needs to happen
immediately.  On some systems I/O writes are posted, though, causing the SMI to
happen well after the "outb" occurred, which causes random failures.  Following
the "outb" with an "inb" forces the write to go through even if it is posted.

Mike Waychison 66245ad025 firmware: Fix unaligned memory accesses in dmi-sysfs
DMI entries are arranged in memory back to back with no alignment
guarantees. This means that the struct dmi_header passed to callbacks
from dmi_walk() itself isn't byte aligned.  This causes problems on
architectures that expect aligned data, such as IA64.

The dmi-sysfs patchset introduced structure member accesses through this
passed in dmi_header.  Fix this by memcpy()ing the structures to
temporary locations on stack when inspecting/copying them.

Mike Waychison a3857a5c98 firmware: Expose DMI type 15 System Event Log
The System Event Log described by DMI entry type 15 may be backed by
either memory or may be indirectly accessed via an IO index/data
register pair.

In order to get read access to this log, expose it in the
"system_event_log" sub-directory of type 15 DMI entries, ie:
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log/raw_event_log.

This commit handles both IO accessed and memory access system event
logs.  OEM specific access and GPNV support is explicitly not handled
and we error out in the logs when we do not recognize the access method.

The optional type 15 entry of the DMI table describes a non-volatile
storage-backed system event log.

In preparation for the next commit which exposes the raw bits of the
event log to userland, create a new sub-directory within the dmi entry
called "system_event_log" and expose attribute files that describe the
event log itself.

Currently, only a single child object is permitted within a
dmi_sysfs_entry.  We simply point at this child from the dmi_sysfs_entry
if it exists.

Mike Waychison 948af1f0bb firmware: Basic dmi-sysfs support
Introduce a new module "dmi-sysfs" that exports the broken out entries
of the DMI table through sysfs.

Entries are enumerated via dmi_walk() on module load, and are populated
as kobjects rooted at /sys/firmware/dmi/entries.

Entries are named "<type>-<instance>", where:
   <type>	: is the type of the entry, and
   <instance>	: is the ordinal count within the DMI table of that
		  entry type.  This instance is used in lieu the DMI
		  entry's handle as no assurances are made by the kernel
		  that handles are unique.

All entries export the following attributes:
   length	: The length of the formatted portion of the entry
   handle	: The handle given to this entry by the firmware
   raw		: The raw bytes of the entire entry, including the
		  formatted portion, the unformatted (strings) portion,
		  and the two terminating nul characters.
   type		: The DMI entry type
   instance	: The ordinal instance of this entry given its type.
   position	: The position ordinal of the entry within the table in
		  its entirety.

Entries in dmi-sysfs are kobject backed members called "struct
dmi_sysfs_entry" and belong to dmi_kset.  They are threaded through
entry_list (protected by entry_list_lock) so that we can find them at
cleanup time.

David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.
