Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot/KASLR: exclude EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_{CODE|DATA} from
 KASLR's choice

Hi Baoquan, everyone,

I'm also interested in KASLR/EFI related issue (but not the same issue
with yours, so I separated the thread.)

This patch is based on Baoquan's recent patches[1], adding more code
on the new function process_efi_entry().
If it's OK, could you queue this onto your tree/series?

[1] "[PATCH v3 0/2] x86/boot/KASLR: Restrict kernel to be randomized"
    https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/5/98

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi

Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot/KASLR: exclude EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_{CODE|DATA} from
 KASLR's choice

KASLR chooses kernel location from E820_TYPE_RAM regions by walking over
e820 entries now. E820_TYPE_RAM includes EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE and
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA, so those regions can be the target. According to
UEFI spec, all memory regions marked as EfiBootServicesCode and
EfiBootServicesData are available for free memory after the first call
of ExitBootServices(). So such regions should be usable for kernel on
spec basis.

In x86, however, we have some workaround for broken firmware, where we
keep such regions reserved until SetVirtualAddressMap() is done.
See the following code in should_map_region():

	static bool should_map_region(efi_memory_desc_t *md)
	{
		...
		/*
		 * Map boot services regions as a workaround for buggy
		 * firmware that accesses them even when they shouldn't.
		 *
		 * See efi_{reserve,free}_boot_services().
		 */
		if (md->type == EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE ||
			md->type == EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA)
				return false;

This workaround suppressed a boot crash, but potential issues still
remain because no one prevents the regions from overlapping with kernel
image by KASLR.

So let's make sure that EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_{CODE|DATA} regions are never
chosen as kernel memory for the workaround to work fine.
