Note this could be done in a more selective manner to only apply to compat code calls, but given the overhead of making an EFI call doing an extra copy of 3 variables doesn't seem to warrant the special casing. Signed-off-by: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Cc: Ian Jackson <iwj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Tagged for possible inclusion into the release, as it's a likely candidate for backport. It shouldn't introduce any functional change from a caller PoV. I think the risk is getting the patch wrong and not passing the right parameters, or broken EFI implementations corrupting data on our stack instead of doing it in xenpf_efi_runtime_call. --- xen/common/efi/runtime.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 20 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/xen/common/efi/runtime.c b/xen/common/efi/runtime.c index 375b94229e..4462233798 100644 --- a/xen/common/efi/runtime.c +++ b/xen/common/efi/runtime.c @@ -607,6 +607,9 @@ int efi_runtime_call(struct xenpf_efi_runtime_call *op) break;case XEN_EFI_query_variable_info:+ { + uint64_t max_store_size, remain_store_size, max_size; + if ( op->misc & ~XEN_EFI_VARINFO_BOOT_SNAPSHOT ) return -EINVAL;@@ -638,16 +641,29 @@ int efi_runtime_call(struct xenpf_efi_runtime_call *op) if ( !efi_enabled(EFI_RS) || (efi_rs->Hdr.Revision >> 16) < 2 )return -EOPNOTSUPP; + + /* + * Bounce the variables onto the stack to make them 8 byte aligned when + * called from the compat handler, as their placement in + * compat_pf_efi_runtime_call will make them 4 byte aligned instead and + * clang will complain. + * + * Note we do this regardless of whether called from the compat handler + * or not, as it's not worth the extra logic to differentiate. + */ + max_store_size = op->u.query_variable_info.max_store_size; + remain_store_size = op->u.query_variable_info.remain_store_size; + max_size = op->u.query_variable_info.max_size; + state = efi_rs_enter(); if ( !state.cr3 ) return -EOPNOTSUPP; status = efi_rs->QueryVariableInfo( - op->u.query_variable_info.attr, - &op->u.query_variable_info.max_store_size, - &op->u.query_variable_info.remain_store_size, - &op->u.query_variable_info.max_size); + op->u.query_variable_info.attr, &max_store_size, &remain_store_size, + &max_size); efi_rs_leave(&state); This will compile, but the caller won't get any data back unless you copy the opposite way here... ~Andrew break; + }case XEN_EFI_query_capsule_capabilities:case XEN_EFI_update_capsule:
