[Issue]
Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime.
But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because
efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name.
[Solution]
A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to
the variable name.
The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount".
So, this patch adds it to a variable name.
Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with
the modification of the variable name.
<before applying this patch>
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678
type:0
id:1
ctime:12345678
If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because
variable names are same among them.
<after applying this patch>
it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows.
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678
a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678
type:0
id:1
sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event)
ctime:12345678
In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to
an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and
doesn't need to care about multiple events.

[Issue]
Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type,
id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime.
If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough.
However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because
it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time.
<Example>
As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime.
a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678
a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789
type:0
id:1
ctime:12345678, 23456789
[Solution]
This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback.
It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored.
To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore
at reading time.

[Issue]
Currently, efi_pstore driver simply overwrites existing panic messages in NVRAM.
So, in the following scenario, we will lose 1st panic messages.
1. kernel panics.
2. efi_pstore is kicked and writes panic messages to NVRAM.
3. system reboots.
4. kernel panics again before a user checks the 1st panic messages in NVRAM.
[Solution]
A reasonable solution to fix the issue is just holding multiple logs without erasing
existing entries.
This patch removes a logic erasing existing entries in a write callback
because the logic is not needed in the write callback to support holding multiple logs.

As discussed in a thread below, Running out of space in EFI isn't a well-tested scenario.
And we wouldn't expect all firmware to handle it gracefully.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134305325801789&w=2
On the other hand, current efi_pstore doesn't check a remaining space of storage at writing time.
Therefore, efi_pstore may not work if it tries to write a large amount of data.

To avoid handling the situation above, this patch checks if there is a space enough to log with
QueryVariableInfo() before writing data.

At present, the handling of GUIDs in efivar file names isn't consistent.
We use GUID_LEN in some places, and 38 in others (GUID_LEN plus
separator), and implicitly use the presence of the trailing NUL.
This change removes the trailing NUL from GUID_LEN, so that we're
explicitly adding it when required. We also replace magic numbers
with GUID_LEN, and clarify the comments where appropriate.
We also fix the allocation size in efivar_create_sysfs_entry, where
we're allocating one byte too much, due to counting the trailing NUL
twice - once when calculating short_name_size, and once in the kzalloc.

The existing EFI variables code only supports variables of up to 1024
bytes. This limitation existed in version 0.99 of the EFI specification,
but was removed before any full releases. Since variables can now be
larger than a single page, sysfs isn't the best interface for this. So,
instead, let's add a filesystem. Variables can be read, written and
created, with the first 4 bytes of each variable representing its UEFI
attributes. The create() method doesn't actually commit to flash since
zero-length variables can't exist per-spec.

There are two ways to create /sys/firmware/memmap/X sysfs:
- firmware_map_add_early
When the system starts, it is calledd from e820_reserve_resources()
- firmware_map_add_hotplug
When the memory is hot plugged, it is called from add_memory()
But these functions are called without unifying value of end argument as
below:
- end argument of firmware_map_add_early() : start + size - 1
- end argument of firmware_map_add_hogplug() : start + size
The patch unifies them to "start + size". Even if applying the patch,

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.

Fix up conflicts with 'struct sysdev' removal from various platform

- arch/arm/plat-samsung/include/plat/cpu.h

and fix up cpu_is_hotpluggable() as per Greg in include/linux/cpu.h
This resolves the conflict in the arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/s3c6400.c file,
and it fixes the build error in the arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c
file, that the merge did not catch.

with the large sysdev removal process in the driver-core tree.

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.

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

This patch adds checks which ensure that both the action header and the payload

This allows a backend to filter on the dmesg reason as well as the pstore

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.

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".

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.

be2iscsi passes the boot functions its phba object which is

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

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/debugfs/file.c due to the same patch
being applied twice, and an unrelated cleanup nearby.
In order to keep Google's firmware drivers organized amongst themselves,
all Google firmware drivers are gated on CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE=y, which
defaults to 'n' in the kernel build.

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.

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().

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.

Using C line continuation inside format strings is error prone.
Clean up the unintended whitespace introduced by misuse of \.
Neaten correctly used line continations as well for consistency.
drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c has these errors as well,
but arcmsr needs a lot more work and the driver should likely be
moved to staging instead.

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.
[v2:
- Add ACPI_SIG_IBFT to ibft_signs
- replace break with goto in find_ibft_in_mem innner loop.]

Instead of letting efivars access struct efi directly when dealing with
variables, use an operations structure. This allows a later change to
reuse the efivars logic without having to pretend to support everything
in struct efi.
