[PATCH 0/6] Misc tpm updates
by Kevin O'Connor 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Hi Stefan, I dusted off some TPM patches I had worked on earlier in the year. Mostly just code movement, but the last patch I think helps simplify tpm_build_and_send_cmd(). Do they look okay to you? -Kevin Kevin O'Connor (6): tpm: Add comment banners to tcg.c separating major parts of spec tpm: Don't call tpm_set_failure() from tpm12_get_capability() tpm: Move code around in tcgbios.c to keep like code together acpi: Generalize find_fadt() and find_tcpa_by_rsdp() into find_acpi_table() tpm: Don't call tpm_build_and_send_cmd() from tpm20_stirrandom() tpm: Rework tpm_build_and_send_cmd() into tpm_simple_cmd() src/fw/biostables.c | 18 +- src/std/acpi.h | 7 - src/std/tcg.h | 199 +++++++++-------- src/tcgbios.c | 611 ++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------ src/util.h | 1 + 5 files changed, 369 insertions(+), 467 deletions(-) -- 2.5.5

[PATCH 0/5] serial console support
by Gerd Hoffmann 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hi, Next round of serial console patches, Still not ready to merge. Headline feature of this version is split mode (i.e. output on both vga and serial). Have a initial working implementation now, logic is simliar to the vgabios timer hook (as suggested by Kevin). Also changed the output logic, down to a one-cell buffer (char+attr) for output. Cursor updates are simply written to BDA now, with the actual move being done lazily when printing the next character or checking for keyboard input. That is especially useful for splitmode as we can simply skip the cursor position updates and let the vgabios do them instead. TODO list: * compile time (CONFIG_*) option. * input handling cleanups. * implement missing int10h functions. * more testing. cheers, Gerd Gerd Hoffmann (5): std: add cp437 to unicode map kbd: make enqueue_key public, add ascii_to_keycode paravirt: read QEMU_CFG_NOGRAPHIC, store in etc/sercon-enable romfile add serial console support [wip] sercon: initial split-output implementation Makefile | 7 +- src/clock.c | 1 + src/fw/paravirt.c | 2 + src/kbd.c | 17 +- src/misc.c | 2 + src/optionroms.c | 9 +- src/romlayout.S | 39 ++++ src/sercon.c | 621 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/std/cp437.c | 275 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/std/cp437.h | 1 + src/util.h | 5 + 11 files changed, 974 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/sercon.c create mode 100644 src/std/cp437.c create mode 100644 src/std/cp437.h -- 1.8.3.1

[PATCH v4 0/5] support booting more than 255 CPUs with QEMU
by Igor Mammedov 16 Sep '16

16 Sep '16

Changelog since: v3: * don't move CPU counting around, leave it as is and consolidate apic_id accounting only * add and use qemu_*_present_cpus_count() helpers to init/get boot cpus count at boot time and only qemu_get_present_cpus_count() at resume time * fix S3 wakeup stuck in resume vector * If cpu were hotplugged during smp_scan, report it to user instead of silently hanging if it came online while smp_scan() waits for APs v2: * rebase on top of current master /smp_scan() changes/ v1: * s/count_cpu/apic_id_init/ * merge handle_x2apic() into apic_id_init() RFC: * move out max-cpus check out of mptable_setup() * factor out CPU counting/apic ID detection in separate function * return back accidentially deleted debug message with APIC ID * drop unused code in smp_setup() According to SDM, if CPUs have APIC ID more than 254 firmware should pass control to OS in x2APIC mode. This series adds x2APIC bootstrap initialization. Works fine with not yet rebased on master QEMU side of x2APIC support: https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg390671.html Rebased variant probably will be sent next week. Note: S3 wakeup works as expected if linux guest is running with IRQ remapping enabled. However it seems that kernel is buggy with IRQ remapping disabled as kernel disables CPUs with APIC ID > 254 and on resume from S3 hangs somewere after getting control from Seabios. Igor Mammedov (4): paravirt: disable legacy bios tables in case of more than 255 CPUs error out if present cpus count changed during SMP bringup add helpers to read etc/boot-cpus at resume time support booting with more than 255 CPUs Kevin O'Connor (1): smp: consolidate CPU APIC ID detection and accounting src/fw/paravirt.h | 3 +++ src/x86.h | 1 + src/fw/paravirt.c | 44 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- src/fw/smp.c | 65 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- 4 files changed, 91 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4

[PATCH] boot: Show boot splash until all threads are complete
by Paul Menzel 16 Sep '16

16 Sep '16

[Please find the unmangled patch attached. I have no idea how to turn off line wrapping in Mozilla Thunderbird.] Currently, even with `etc/threads` set to 2 in CBFS, the boot splash is only shown for a short period, while SeaBIOS detects the hard disk on the ASRock E350M1, which takes 10 seconds with this particular hard drive model. So move the call to wait for the threads to finish further up, so it is before the instruction to disable the boot splash. On the ASRock E350M1 the boot splash is shown the whole time now. Note, sometimes the GRUB menu from the MBR is not shown, and boot splash can still be seen. The screen only changes, once the Linux kernel boots. This seems to be a GRUB issue though [1].

TPM implementation

16 Sep '16

Hello Kevin/Stefan, I can see a lot of work has been done already on the tpm implementation in SeaBIOS. Can you update me on the status of this? Should I still consider this to be work in progress or is this close to a stage where it can actually be used in a production level project? Best Regards, Wim Vervoorn Eltan B.V.

Re: [SeaBIOS] [Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH v2 00/12] Guest startup time optimization

Hi, > > AFAIK latest seabios already supports DMA. > > It's easy to add more config options for seabios > > if you are so inclined. > > Yes, I tried that, the fw_cfg overhead in SeaBios/linuxboot optrom is > already not a big issue for us. However, there are still some other > code in SeaBIOS needs to be investigated. What exactly? Also a few suggestions: * Try the seabios master branch. There have been some improvements recently which are not in the 1.9 release. * Use a stripped down config. When booting a kernel directly you don't need storage and usb drivers, also no keyboard. That all reduces init time. * Initializing all pci devices (placing bars in address space and programming them) can probably be skipped and left to the linux kernel to handle. But when trying take care that the effect might be that we shift just startup time from seabios to linux kernel, the placement needs to happen somewhere after all. * When discussing these things add the seabios list (seabios(a)seabios.org) to cc: Added the list now. cheers, Gerd
