This patch series adds EFI boot support for arm64. A PE/COFF header is created in head.S, as there is no toolchain support for PE/COFF on arm64. This also has the advantage that the file is both an "Image" file and a PE/COFF executable - the same binary can be loaded and run either way. The EFI 'stub' code is a shim layer that serves as the loader for the XEN kernel in the EFI environment. The stub loads the dom0 kernel and initrd if required, and adds entries for them as well as for the EFI data structures into the device tree passed to XEN. Once the device tree is constructed, EFI boot services are exited, and the stub transfers control to the normal XEN entry point. The only indication XEN has that it was loaded via the stub is that the device tree contains EFI properties. This is all very similar to the arm/arm64 Linux kernel EFI stubs.
I'm not really that happy with how the x86 build works, in particular the rule I added to arch/x86/Makefile to build boot.init.o to fix parallel builds. Due to the way the EFI build is done - building 2 executables at the same time with different EFI code included in each, the normal common build infrastructure doesn't work.
Changes since v2: * Major refactor to use common EFI entry point and factor out arch specific code, rather than factoring out the common code. * Update entire libfdt to v1.4.0 to provide fdt_create_empty_tree()
Changes since v1: * Added common/efi directory for shared EFI code, and arch/arm/efi for arm-specfic code. Global build hacking of -fshort-wchar removed. arm32, arm64, and x86 with/without EFI enabled toolchain all build. The x86 build previously autodetected whether the EFI version should be built or not based on toolchain support. I couldn't get this working nicely with the common code, so for x86 I have the common code always build, and the EFI autodection works as normal for building the EFI version. * Basic use of the EFI memory map instead of FDT based memory description. More work needed to resolve differences between FDT description of a small number of large memory banks with reserved regions, and EFI's potentially long list of available regions, which can be long. * More refactoring of common EFI code to not directly exit using blexit(), as this broke the pre-linking targets. All shared code returns status, and it is up to the caller to exit and clean up. * Reduced the number of patches. Refactoring of x86 code first, then moving all code to efi-shared.c in one patch. * Fixed formatting/tab issues in new files, added Emacs footer. * Fixed efi_get_memory_map to return NULL map pointer on error in addition to failed status. * Added comments in head.S regarding PE/COFF specification, and 1:1 mapping used by EFI code. * Updated device tree bindings to use new multiboot bindings. Since the stub is always built into XEN, we don't have to support older bindings.
Roy Franz (15): move EFI boot code to common/efi Move x86 specific funtions/variables to arch header create arch functions to get and process EFI memory map. Add architecture functions for pre/post ExitBootServices Add efi_arch_cfg_file() to handle arch specific cfg file fields Add efi_arch_handle_cmdline() for processing commandline Move x86 specific video and disk probing code Add efi_arch_memory() for arch specific memory setup Add arch specific module handling to read_file() Add SMBIOS and runtime services setup arch functions. Add several misc. arch functions for EFI boot code. Add efi_arch_use_config_file() function to control use of config file add arm64 cache flushing code from linux v3.16 Update libfdt to v1.4.0 Add ARM EFI boot support
