firmware: dmi: Fortify entry point length checks Ensure that the SMBIOS entry point is long enough to include all the fields we need. Otherwise it is pointless to even attempt to verify its checksum. Also fix the maximum length check, which is technically 32, not 31. It does not matter in practice as the only valid values are 31 (for SMBIOS 2.x) and 24 (for SMBIOS 3.x), but let's still have the check right in case new fields are added to either structure in the future.

ASoC: soc-core: fix DMI handling When DMI information is not present, trying to assign the card long name results in the following warning. WARNING KERN tegra-audio-graph-card sound: ASoC: no DMI vendor name! The initial solution suggested was to test if the card device is an ACPI one. This causes a regression visible to userspace on all Intel platforms, with UCM unable to load card profiles based on DMI information: the card devices are not necessarily ACPI ones, e.g. when the parent creates platform devices on Intel devices. To fix this problem, this patch exports the existing dmi_available variable and tests it in the ASoC core.

firmware: dmi_scan: Fix handling of empty DMI strings The handling of empty DMI strings looks quite broken to me: * Strings from 1 to 7 spaces are not considered empty. * True empty DMI strings (string index set to 0) are not considered empty, and result in allocating a 0-char string. * Strings with invalid index also result in allocating a 0-char string. * Strings starting with 8 spaces are all considered empty, even if non-space characters follow (sounds like a weird thing to do, but I have actually seen occurrences of this in DMI tables before.) * Strings which are considered empty are reported as 8 spaces, instead of being actually empty. Some of these issues are the result of an off-by-one error in memcmp, the rest is incorrect by design. So let's get it square: missing strings and strings made of only spaces, regardless of their length, should be treated as empty and no memory should be allocated for them. All other strings are non-empty and should be allocated.

firmware: dmi_scan: Drop dmi_initialized I don't think it makes sense to check for a possible bad initialization order at run time on every system when it is all decided at build time. A more efficient way to make sure developers do not introduce new calls to dmi_check_system() too early in the initialization sequence is to simply document the expected call order. That way, developers have a chance to get it right immediately, without having to test-boot their kernel, wonder why it does not work, and parse the kernel logs for a warning message. And we get rid of the run-time performance penalty as a nice side effect. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

So move it back to dmi_check_system(), reverting this specific portion of commit d7b1956fed33 ("DMI: Introduce dmi_first_match to make the interface more flexible"). * Don't check for the exact_match flag again when we already know its value.

firmware: dmi_scan: Look for SMBIOS 3 entry point first Since version 3.0.0 of the SMBIOS specification, there can be multiple entry points in memory, pointing to one or two DMI tables. If both a 32-bit ("_SM_") entry point and a 64-bit ("_SM3_") entry point are present, the specification requires that the latter points to a table which is a super-set of the table pointed to by the former. Therefore we should give preference to the 64-bit ("_SM3_") entry point. However, currently the code is picking the first valid entry point it finds. Per specification, we should look for a 64-bit ("_SM3_") entry point first, and if we can't find any, look for a 32-bit ("_SM_" or "_DMI_") entry point. Modify the code to do that.

But for situation when /dev/mem usage is disabled, the utils have to use dmi sysfs instead, which doesn't represent SMBIOS entry and adds code/delay redundancy when direct access for table is needed. So this patch creates dmi/tables and adds SMBIOS entry point to allow utils in question to work correctly without /dev/mem. Also patch adds raw dmi table to simplify dmi table processing in user space, as proposed by Jean Delvare.

firmware: dmi_scan: Trim DMI table length before exporting it The SMBIOS v3 entry points specify a maximum length for the DMI table, not the exact length. Thus there may be garbage after the end-of-table marker, which we don't want to export to user-space. Adjust dmi_len when we find the end-of-table marker, so that only the actual table payload is exported.

firmware: dmi_scan: Only honor end-of-table for 64-bit tables A 32-bit entry point to a DMI table says how many structures the table contains. The SMBIOS specification explicitly says that end-of-table markers should be ignored if they are not actually at the end of the DMI table. So only honor the end-of-table marker for tables accessed through 64-bit entry points, as they do not specify a structure count.

firmware: dmi_scan: Fix ordering of product_uuid In function dmi_present(), dmi_walk_early() calls dmi_table(), which calls dmi_decode(), which ultimately calls dmi_save_uuid(). This last function makes a decision based on the value of global variable dmi_ver. The problem is that this variable is set right _after_ dmi_walk_early() returns. So dmi_save_uuid() always sees dmi_ver == 0 regardless of the actual version implemented. This causes /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid to always use the old ordering even on systems implementing DMI/SMBIOS 2.6 or later, which should use the new ordering. This is broken since kernel v3.8 for legacy DMI implementations and since kernel v3.10 for SMBIOS 2 implementations. SMBIOS 3 implementations with the 64-bit entry point are not affected. The first breakage does not matter much as in practice legacy DMI implementations are always for versions older than 2.6, which is when the UUID ordering changed. The second breakage is more problematic as it affects the vast majority of x86 systems manufactured since 2009.

firmware: dmi_scan: Prevent dmi_num integer overflow dmi_num is a u16, dmi_len is a u32, so this construct: dmi_num = dmi_len / 4; would result in an integer overflow for a DMI table larger than 256 kB. I've never see such a large table so far, but SMBIOS 3.0 makes it possible so maybe we'll see such tables in the future. So instead of faking a structure count when the entry point does not provide it, adjust the loop condition in dmi_table() to properly deal with the case where dmi_num is not set. This bug was introduced with the initial SMBIOS 3.0 support in commit fc43026278b2 ("dmi: add support for SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point").

But after adding initial SMBIOS v3 support fc43026278b2 ("dmi: add support for SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point") the 127-0 entry is not handled any more, as result it's not created in dmi sysfs for instance.

dmi: add support for SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point The DMTF SMBIOS reference spec v3.0.0 defines a new 64-bit entry point, which enables support for SMBIOS structure tables residing at a physical offset over 4 GB. This is especially important for upcoming arm64 platforms whose system RAM resides entirely above the 4 GB boundary. For the UEFI case, this code attempts to detect the new SMBIOS 3.0 header magic at the offset passed in the SMBIOS3_TABLE_GUID UEFI configuration table. If this configuration table is not provided, or if we fail to parse the header, we fall back to using the legacy SMBIOS_TABLE_GUID configuration table. This is in line with the spec, that allows both configuration tables to be provided, but mandates that they must point to the same structure table, unless the version pointed to by the 64-bit entry point is a superset of the 32-bit one. For the non-UEFI case, the detection logic is modified to look for the SMBIOS 3.0 header magic before it looks for the legacy header magic. Note that this patch is based on version 3.0.0d [draft] of the specification, which is expected not to deviate from the final version in ways that would affect the correctness of this implementation.

dump_stack: implement arch-specific hardware description in task dumps x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't consistent. * x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is printed again later in the same dump. * warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs. * ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps. This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc() during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with "Hardware name:" label. dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86 and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine(). This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common() unnecessary. Removed. show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and remove the duplication. An example WARN dump follows.

efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilities Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully.

drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c: fetch dmi version from SMBIOS if it exists The right dmi version is in SMBIOS if it's zero in DMI region This issue was originally found from an oracle bug. One customer noticed system UUID doesn't match between dmidecode & uek2. - HP ProLiant BL460c G6 : # cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_uuid 00000000-0000-4C48-3031-4D5030333531 # dmidecode | grep -i uuid UUID: 00000000-0000-484C-3031-4D5030333531 From SMBIOS 2.6 on, spec use little-endian encoding for UUID other than network byte order. So we need to get dmi version to distinguish. If version is 0.0, the real version is taken from the SMBIOS version. This is part of original kernel comment in code.

drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c: make dmi_name_in_vendors more focused 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".

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

dmi: extend dmi_get_year() to dmi_get_date() There are cases where full date information is required instead of just the year. Add month and day parsing to dmi_get_year() and rename it to dmi_get_date(). As the original function only required '/' followed by any number of parseable characters at the end of the string, keep that behavior to avoid upsetting existing users. The new function takes dates of format [mm[/dd]]/yy[yy]. Year, month and date are checked to be in the ranges of [1-9999], [1-12] and [1-31] respectively and any invalid or out-of-range component is returned as zero. The dummy implementation is updated accordingly but the return value is updated to indicate field not found which is consistent with how other dummy functions behave.

But the root cause is ASUS M2A-VM system BIOS bug in old revisions like 0901, while forcing into 32bit DMA happens to work as workaround. Now it's time to withdraw 4cde32fc4b32e96a99063af3183acdfd54c563f0 so as to restore the SB600 SATA 64bit DMA capability. This patch is also adding the workaround for M2A-VM old BIOS revisions, but users are suggested to upgrade their system BIOS to the latest one if they meet this issue.

DMI: Introduce dmi_first_match to make the interface more flexible Some notebooks from HP have the problem that their BIOSes attempt to spin down hard drives before entering ACPI system states S4 and S5. This leads to a yo-yo effect during system power-off shutdown and the last phase of hibernation when the disk is first spun down by the kernel and then almost immediately turned on and off by the BIOS. This, in turn, may result in shortening the disk's life times. To prevent this from happening we can blacklist the affected systems using DMI information. However, only the on-board controlles should be blacklisted and their PCI slot numbers can be used for this purpose. Unfortunately the existing interface for checking DMI information of the system is not very convenient for this purpose, because to use it, we would have to define special callback functions or create a separate struct dmi_system_id table for each blacklisted system. To overcome this difficulty introduce a new function dmi_first_match() returning a pointer to the first entry in an array of struct dmi_system_id elements that matches the system DMI information. Then, we can use this pointer to access the entry's .driver_data field containing the additional information, such as the PCI slot number, allowing us to do the desired blacklisting.

ipmi: change device node ordering to reflect probe order In 2.6.14 a patch was merged which switching the order of the ipmi device naming from in-order-of-discovery over to reverse-order-of-discovery. So on systems with multiple BMC interfaces, the ipmi device names are being created in reverse order relative to how they are discovered on the system (e.g. on an IBM x3950 multinode server with N nodes, the device name for the BMC in the first node is /dev/ipmiN-1 and the device name for the BMC in the last node is /dev/ipmi0, etc.). The problem is caused by the list handling routines chosen in dmi_scan.c. Using list_add() causes the multiple ipmi devices to be added to the device list using a stack-paradigm and so the ipmi driver subsequently pulls them off during initialization in LIFO order. This patch changes the dmi_save_ipmi_device() list handling paradigm to a queue, thereby allowing the ipmi driver to build the ipmi device names in the order in which they are found on the system.

Therefore type 41 (Onboard Devices Extended Information) was added.

x86: fix DMI out of memory problems People with HP Desktops (including me) encounter couple of DMI errors during boot - dmi_save_oem_strings_devices: out of memory and dmi_string: out of memory. On some HP desktops the DMI data include OEM strings (type 11) out of which only few are meaningful and most other are empty. DMI code religiously creates copies of these 27 strings (65 bytes each in my case) and goes OOM in dmi_string(). If DMI_MAX_DATA is bumped up a little then it goes and fails in dmi_save_oem_strings while allocating dmi_devices of sizeof(struct dmi_device) corresponding to these strings. On x86_64 since we cannot use alloc_bootmem this early, the code uses a static array of 2048 bytes (DMI_MAX_DATA) for allocating the memory DMI needs. It does not survive the creation of empty strings and devices. Fix this by detecting and not newly allocating empty strings and instead using a one statically defined dmi_empty_string. Also do not create a new struct dmi_device for each empty string - use one statically define dmi_device with .name=dmi_empty_string and add that to the dmi_devices list. On x64 this should stop the OOM with same current size of DMI_MAX_DATA and on x86 this should save a good amount of (27*65 bytes + 27*sizeof(struct dmi_device) bootmem. Compile and boot tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit x86.

drivers/firmware: const-ify DMI API and internals Three main sets of changes: 1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const, since callers should not be changing that data. 2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should, whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to that data area. 3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible in low-level drivers. And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional optimizations on the part of the compiler. The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others, it was easier to roll it into this changeset.

DMI-based module autoloading The patch below adds DMI/SMBIOS based module autoloading to the Linux kernel. The idea is to load laptop drivers automatically (and other drivers which cannot be autoloaded otherwise), based on the DMI system identification information of the BIOS. Right now most distros manually try to load all available laptop drivers on bootup in the hope that at least one of them loads successfully. This patch does away with all that, and uses udev to automatically load matching drivers on the right machines. Basically the patch just exports the DMI information that has been parsed by the kernel anyway to userspace via a sysfs device /sys/class/dmi/id and makes sure that proper modalias attributes are available. Besides adding the "modalias" attribute it also adds attributes for a few other DMI fields which might be useful for writing udev rules. This patch is not an attempt to export the entire DMI/SMBIOS data to userspace. We already have "dmidecode" which parses the complete DMI info from userspace. The purpose of this patch is machine model identification and good udev integration. To take advantage of DMI based module autoloading, a driver should export one or more MODULE_ALIAS fields similar to these: MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:pnMS-1013:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1058:pvr0581:rvnMSI:rnMS-1058:*:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1412:*:rvnMSI:rnMS-1412:*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnNOTEBOOK:pnSAM2000:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); These lines are specific to my msi-laptop.c driver. They are basically just a concatenation of a few carefully selected DMI fields with all potentially bad characters stripped. Besides laptop drivers, modules like "hdaps", the i2c modules and the hwmon modules are good candidates for "dmi:" MODULE_ALIAS lines. Besides merely exporting the DMI data via sysfs the patch adds support for a few more DMI fields. Especially the CHASSIS fields are very useful to identify different laptop modules. The patch also adds working MODULE_ALIAS lines to my msi-laptop.c driver. I'd like to thank Kay Sievers for helping me to clean up this patch for posting it on lkml. Patch is against Linus' current GIT HEAD. Should probably apply to older kernels as well without modification.

[PATCH] DMI: Decode and save OEM String information This teaches dmi_decode() how to decode and save OEM Strings (type 11) DMI information, which is currently discarded silently. Existing code using DMI is not affected. Follows the "System Management BIOS (SMBIOS) Specification" (http://www.dmtf.org/standards/smbios), and also the userspace dmidecode.c code. OEM Strings are the only safe way to identify some hardware, e.g., the ThinkPad embedded controller used by the soon-to-be-submitted tp_smapi driver. This will also let us eliminate the long whitelist in the mainline hdaps driver (in a future patch).

[PATCH] DMI: move dmi_scan.c from arch/i386 to drivers/firmware/ dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64. Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64 and x86_64 depend on things in arch/i386 that they wouldn't otherwise care about. This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes. All three architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.
