Commit Message

Trammell Hudson Sept. 21, 2020, 11:51 a.m. UTC
This patch adds support for bundling the xen.efi hypervisor, the xen.cfg
configuration file, the Linux kernel and initrd, as well as the XSM,
and architectural specific files into a single "unified" EFI executable.
This allows an administrator to update the components independently
without requiring rebuilding xen, as well as to replace the components
in an existing image.

The resulting EFI executable can be invoked directly from the UEFI Boot
Manager, removing the need to use a separate loader like grub as well
as removing dependencies on local filesystem access.  And since it is
a single file, it can be signed and validated by UEFI Secure Boot without
requring the shim protocol.

It is inspired by systemd-boot's unified kernel technique and borrows the
function to locate PE sections from systemd's LGPL'ed code.  During EFI
boot, Xen looks at its own loaded image to locate the PE sections for
the Xen configuration (`.config`), dom0 kernel (`.kernel`), dom0 initrd
(`.ramdisk`), and XSM config (`.xsm`), which are included after building
xen.efi using objcopy to add named sections for each input file.

For x86, the CPU ucode can be included in a section named `.ucode`,
which is loaded in the efi_arch_cfg_file_late() stage of the boot process.

On ARM systems the Device Tree can be included in a section named
`.dtb`, which is loaded during the efi_arch_cfg_file_early() stage of
the boot process.

Note that the system will fall back to loading files from disk if
the named sections do not exist. This allows distributions to continue
with the status quo if they want a signed kernel + config, while still
allowing a user provided initrd (which is how the shim protocol currently
works as well).

This patch also adds constness to the section parameter of
efi_arch_cfg_file_early() and efi_arch_cfg_file_late()
and changes pe_find_section() to use a CHAR16 section name.

In patch 2 you don't bother clearing the field, presumably because
it's static data and hence zero-filled anyway. This same assumption
would then hold here. Or else, to be consistent, the earlier patch
would want clearing added.

I'm afraid this is liable to trigger compiler warnings, for checking
an unsigned quantity to be negative.

Also throughout here "i-1" wants spelling "i - 1".

Comment and code don't look to be in line.

The compare function had strcmp() like semantics, but since it was
not used, I've modified it to just return a 0 or -1 in all cases.
So the comparison against < 0 goes away.

Fixed in both places.

Yeah, comment had drifted out of sync as some of the other tests
moved around.  I've removed it in the v7 version.

+## Unified Xen kernel image
+
+The "Unified" kernel image can be generated by adding additional
+sections to the Xen EFI executable with objcopy, similar to how
+[systemd-boot uses the stub to add them to the Linux kernel](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/systemd-boot#Preparing_a_unified_kernel_image)
+
+The sections for the xen configuration file, the dom0 kernel, dom0 initrd,
+XSM and CPU microcode should be added after the Xen `.pad` section, the
+ending address of which can be located with:
+
+```
+objdump -h xen.efi \
+	| perl -ane '/\.pad/ && printf "0x%016x\n", hex($F[2]) + hex($F[3])'
+```
+
+For all the examples the `.pad` section ended at 0xffff82d041000000.
+All the sections are optional (`.config`, `.kernel`, `.ramdisk`, `.xsm`,
+`.ucode` (x86) and `.dtb` (ARM)) and the order does not matter.
+The virtual addresses do not need to be contiguous, although they should not
+be overlapping and should all be greater than the last virtual address of the
+hypervisor components.
+
+```
+objcopy \
+	--add-section .config=xen.cfg \
+	--change-section-vma .config=0xffff82d041000000
+	--add-section .ucode=ucode.bin \
+	--change-section-vma .ucode=0xffff82d041010000 \

+	--add-section .ramdisk=initrd.img \
+	--change-section-vma .ramdisk=0xffff82d042000000 \
+	xen.efi \
+	xen.unified.efi
+```
+
+The unified executable can be signed with sbsigntool to make
+it usable with UEFI secure boot:
+
+```
+sbsign \
+	--key signing.key \
+	--cert cert.pem \
+	--output xen.signed.efi \
+	xen.unified.efi
