[PATCH v3 1/2] x86/efi: don't allocate memmap through memblock after mm_init()
From: Nicolai Stange
Date: Thu Jan 05 2017 - 07:52:09 EST
With commit 4bc9f92e64c8 ("x86/efi-bgrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() to avoid
copying image data"), efi_bgrt_init() calls into the memblock allocator
through efi_mem_reserve() => efi_arch_mem_reserve() *after* mm_init()
has been called.
Indeed, KASAN reports a bad read access later on in
efi_free_boot_services():

The instruction at the given address is the first read from the memmap's
memory, i.e. the read of md->type in efi_free_boot_services().
Note that the writes earlier in efi_arch_mem_reserve() don't splat because
they're done through early_memremap()ed addresses.
So, after memblock is gone, allocations should be done through the "normal"
page allocator. Introduce a helper, efi_memmap_alloc() for this. Use
it from efi_arch_mem_reserve(), efi_free_boot_services() and, for the sake
of consistency, from efi_fake_memmap() as well.
Note that for the latter, the memmap allocations cease to be page aligned.
This isn't needed though.

Applicable to next-20170105.
Boot-tested with an efi_fake_mem= parameter on x86_64.
v2 of this patch got a
Tested-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
Changes to v2:
- Use the new efi_memmap_alloc() from efi_fake_memmap(), too.
- Update commit message accordingly.
