Subject: [PATCH V6 2/2] x86/efi: Add efi page fault handler to recover from page faults caused by the firmware
From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@...el.com>
As per the UEFI specification, after the call to ExitBootServices(),
accesses by the firmware to any memory regions except
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_<CODE/DATA> regions is considered illegal. A buggy
firmware could trigger these illegal accesses when an efi runtime
service is invoked and if this happens when the kernel is up and
running, the kernel hangs.
Kernel hangs because the memory region requested by the firmware isn't
mapped in efi_pgd, which causes a page fault in ring 0 and the kernel
fails to handle it, leading to die(). To save kernel from hanging, add
an efi specific page fault handler which recovers from such faults by
1. If the efi runtime service is efi_reset_system(), reboot the machine
through BIOS.
2. If the efi runtime service is _not_ efi_reset_system(), then, freeze
efi_rts_wq and schedule a new process.
The efi page fault handler offers us two advantages:
1. Recovers from potential hangs that could be caused by buggy firmware.
2. Shout loud that the firmware is buggy and hence is not a kernel bug.
