ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFI

2011-12-21T20:57:45Z

commit 935a9fee51c945b8942be2d7b4bae069167b4886 upstream. Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during iscsi_ibft module loading. Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier - specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled. Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address. We could just skip that phys address printing. For legacy one, print the found address early. -v2: update comments and description according to Konrad. -v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad. -v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..

firmware: Sigma: Fix endianess issues

2011-12-09T16:52:39Z

commit bda63586bc5929e97288cdb371bb6456504867ed upstream. Currently the SigmaDSP firmware loader only works correctly on little-endian systems. Fix this by using the proper endianess conversion functions. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen Acked-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Mark Brown Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware: Sigma: Skip header during CRC generation

2011-12-09T16:52:39Z

commit c56935bdc0a8edf50237d3b0205133a5b0adc604 upstream. The firmware header is not part of the CRC, so skip it. Otherwise the firmware will be rejected due to non-matching CRCs. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen Acked-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Mark Brown Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware: Sigma: Prevent out of bounds memory access

2011-12-09T16:52:38Z

commit 4f718a29fe4908c2cea782f751e9805319684e2b upstream. The SigmaDSP firmware loader currently does not perform enough boundary size checks when processing the firmware. As a result it is possible that a malformed firmware can cause an out of bounds memory access. This patch adds checks which ensure that both the action header and the payload are completely inside the firmware data boundaries before processing them.

iscsi_ibft: iscsi_ibft_find unused variable i

int i is only needed if CONFIG_ACPI is set so move it within a new ifdef so kernels without ACPI don't allocate space for nothing. Fixes warning too. Signed-off-by: Connor Hansen Signed-off-by: Peter Jones [v2: Fixed warning when CONFIG_ACPI was defined] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk

firmware: fix GOOGLE_SMI kconfig dependency warning

2011-06-07T17:01:16Z

Is it meaningful/useful to enable EFI_VARS but not EFI? That's what GOOGLE_SMI does. Make it enable EFI also.
