2023-09-11efivarfs: fix statfs() on efivarfsHeinrich Schuchardt
Some firmware (notably U-Boot) provides GetVariable() and GetNextVariableName() but not QueryVariableInfo(). With commit d86ff3333cb1 ("efivarfs: expose used and total size") the statfs syscall was broken for such firmware. If QueryVariableInfo() does not exist or returns EFI_UNSUPPORTED, just report the file system size as 0 as statfs_simple() previously did.

2023-05-17efivarfs: expose used and total sizeAnisse Astier
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. With this patch, one can see the remaining space in EFI variable storage via efivarfs, like this: $ df -h /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on efivarfs 176K 106K 66K 62% /sys/firmware/efi/efivars Signed-off-by: Anisse Astier <an.astier@criteo.com> [ardb: - rename efi_reserved_space() to efivar_reserved_space() - whitespace/coding style tweaks] Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
2023-01-26efivarfs: always register filesystemJohan Hovold
The efivar ops are typically registered at subsys init time so that they are available when efivarfs is registered at module init time. Other efivars implementations, such as Google SMI, exist and can currently be built as modules which means that efivar may not be available when efivarfs is initialised. Move the efivar availability check from module init to when the filesystem is mounted to allow late registration of efivars.

2023-01-17efi: efivars: drop kobject from efivars_register()Johan Hovold
Since commit 0f5b2c69a4cb ("efi: vars: Remove deprecated 'efivars' sysfs interface") and the removal of the sysfs interface there are no users of the efivars kobject. Drop the kobject argument from efivars_register() and add a new efivar_is_available() helper in favour of the old efivars_kobject(). Note that the new helper uses the prefix 'efivar' (i.e. without an 's') for consistency with efivar_supports_writes() and the rest of the interface (except the registration functions). For the benefit of drivers with optional EFI support, also provide a dummy implementation of efivar_is_available().

2022-06-24efi: vars: Use locking version to iterate over efivars linked listsArd Biesheuvel
Both efivars and efivarfs uses __efivar_entry_iter() to go over the linked list that shadows the list of EFI variables held by the firmware, but fail to call the begin/end helpers that are documented as a prerequisite. So switch to the proper version, which is efivar_entry_iter(). Given that in both cases, efivar_entry_remove() is invoked with the lock held already, don't take the lock there anymore. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
2022-06-24efi: vars: Don't drop lock in the middle of efivar_init()Ard Biesheuvel
Even though the efivars_lock lock is documented as protecting the efivars->ops pointer (among other things), efivar_init() happily releases and reacquires the lock for every EFI variable that it enumerates. This used to be needed because the lock was originally a spinlock, which prevented the callback that is invoked for every variable from being able to sleep. However, releasing the lock could potentially invalidate the ops pointer, but more importantly, it might allow a SetVariable() runtime service call to take place concurrently, and the UEFI spec does not define how this affects an enumeration that is running in parallel using the GetNextVariable() runtime service, which is what efivar_init() uses. In the meantime, the lock has been converted into a semaphore, and the only reason we need to drop the lock is because the efivarfs pseudo filesystem driver will otherwise deadlock when it invokes the efivars API from the callback to create the efivar_entry items and insert them into the linked list. (EFI pstore is affected in a similar way) So let's switch to helpers that can be used while the lock is already taken. This way, we can hold on to the lock throughout the enumeration.

2020-11-25efivarfs: revert "fix memory leak in efivarfs_create()"Ard Biesheuvel
The memory leak addressed by commit fe5186cf12e3 is a false positive: all allocations are recorded in a linked list, and freed when the filesystem is unmounted. This leads to double frees, and as reported by David, leads to crashes if SLUB is configured to self destruct when double frees occur. So drop the redundant kfree() again, and instead, mark the offending pointer variable so the allocation is ignored by kmemleak.

2020-09-25efivarfs: Replace invalid slashes with exclamation marks in dentries.Michael Schaller
Without this patch efivarfs_alloc_dentry creates dentries with slashes in their name if the respective EFI variable has slashes in its name. This in turn causes EIO on getdents64, which prevents a complete directory listing of /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/. This patch replaces the invalid shlashes with exclamation marks like kobject_set_name_vargs does for /sys/firmware/efi/vars/ to have consistently named dentries under /sys/firmware/efi/vars/ and /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/.

2020-07-09efi/efivars: Expose RT service availability via efivars abstractionArd Biesheuvel
Commit bf67fad19e493b ("efi: Use more granular check for availability for variable services") introduced a check into the efivarfs, efi-pstore and other drivers that aborts loading of the module if not all three variable runtime services (GetVariable, SetVariable and GetNextVariable) are supported. However, this results in efivarfs being unavailable entirely if only SetVariable support is missing, which is only needed if you want to make any modifications. Also, efi-pstore and the sysfs EFI variable interface could be backed by another implementation of the 'efivars' abstraction, in which case it is completely irrelevant which services are supported by the EFI firmware. So make the generic 'efivars' abstraction dependent on the availibility of the GetVariable and GetNextVariable EFI runtime services, and add a helper 'efivar_supports_writes()' to find out whether the currently active efivars abstraction supports writes (and wire it up to the availability of SetVariable for the generic one). Then, use the efivar_supports_writes() helper to decide whether to permit efivarfs to be mounted read-write, and whether to enable efi-pstore or the sysfs EFI variable interface altogether.

All efivars operations are protected by a spinlock which prevents interruptions and preemption. This is too restricted, we just need a lock preventing concurrency. The idea is to use a semaphore of count 1 and to have two ways of locking, depending on the context: - In interrupt context, we call down_trylock(), if it fails we return an error - In normal context, we call down_interruptible() We don't use a mutex here because the mutex_trylock() function must not be called from interrupt context, whereas the down_trylock() can.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2013-04-17efivarfs: Move to fs/efivarfsMatt Fleming
Now that efivarfs uses the efivar API, move it out of efivars.c and into fs/efivarfs where it belongs. This move will eventually allow us to enable the efivarfs code without having to also enable CONFIG_EFI_VARS built, and vice versa. Furthermore, things like, mount -t efivarfs none /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will now work if efivarfs is built as a module without requiring the use of MODULE_ALIAS(), which would have been necessary when the efivarfs code was part of efivars.c.
