* efi_loader: Pass file path to payloadAlexander Graf2016-04-18-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The payload gets information on where it got loaded from. This includes the device as well as file path. So far we've treated both as the same thing and always gave it the device name. However, in some situations grub2 actually wants to find its loading path to find its configuration file. So let's split the two semantically separte bits into separate structs and pass the loaded file name into our payload when we load it using "load". Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
* efi_loader: Add GOP supportAlexander Graf2016-03-27-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | The EFI standard defines a simple boot protocol that an EFI payload can use to access video output. This patch adds support to expose exactly that one (and the mode already in use) as possible graphical configuration to an EFI payload. With this, I can successfully run grub2 with graphical output.

* efi_loader: Pass proper device path in on bootAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EFI payloads can query for the device they were booted from. Because we have a disconnect between loading binaries and running binaries, we passed in a dummy device path so far. Unfortunately that breaks grub2's logic to find its configuration file from the same device it was booted from. This patch adds logic to have the "load" command call into our efi code to set the device path to the one we last loaded a binary from. With this grub2 properly detects where we got booted from and can find its configuration file, even when searching by-partition. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
* efi_loader: Implement memory allocation and mapAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The EFI loader needs to maintain views of memory - general system memory windows as well as used locations inside those and potential runtime service MMIO windows. To manage all of these, add a few helpers that maintain an internal representation of the map the similar to how the EFI API later on reports it to the application. For allocations, the scheme is very simple. We basically allow allocations to replace chunks of previously done maps, so that a new LOADER_DATA allocation for example can remove a piece of the RAM map. When no specific address is given, we just take the highest possible address in the lowest RAM map that fits the allocation size.

* efi_loader: Add disk interfacesAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A EFI applications usually want to access storage devices to load data from. This patch adds support for EFI disk interfaces. It loops through all block storage interfaces known to U-Boot and creates an EFI object for each existing one. EFI applications can then through these objects call U-Boot's read and write functions.

* efi_loader: Add runtime servicesAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After booting has finished, EFI allows firmware to still interact with the OS using the "runtime services". These callbacks live in a separate address space, since they are available long after U-Boot has been overwritten by the OS. This patch adds enough framework for arbitrary code inside of U-Boot to become a runtime service with the right section attributes set. For now, we don't make use of it yet though. We could maybe in the future map U-boot environment variables to EFI variables here.

* efi_loader: Add console interfaceAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the basic EFI interfaces is the console interface. Using it an EFI application can interface with the user. This patch implements an EFI console interface using getc() and putc(). Today, we only implement text based consoles. We also convert the EFI Unicode characters to UTF-8 on the fly, hoping that everyone managed to jump on the train by now.

* efi_loader: Add boot time servicesAlexander Graf2016-03-15-0/+85
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an EFI application runs, it has access to a few descriptor and callback tables to instruct the EFI compliant firmware to do things for it. The bulk of those interfaces are "boot time services". They handle all object management, and memory allocation. This patch adds support for the boot time services and also exposes a system table, which is the point of entry descriptor table for EFI payloads.
