V3:
- Takes addition of function description and makes it a separate patch
- Subtracts dangling "uint64_t r" in V2 patch
Heinrich if you want to take this set as is add a SOB to
"efi_loader: Add a method description to efi_add_memory_map"
and if not please take in my change for "efi_add_runtime_mmio()" to your
single patch version.
V2:
Following on from a discussion with Heinrich Schuchardt, please find a
reworked set of patches updating efi_add_memory_map() to
- Return efi_status_t
- Return EFI_SUCCESS where appropriate
- Return EFI_NO_MAPPING in two cases where zero was returned to indicate an
error
- Updating of users of efi_add_memory_map() to parse for
EFI_SUCCESS/efi_status_t
I've opted to maintain other returned status codes propogated by functions
that call efi_add_memory_map(). For example efi_add_runtime_mmio()
continues return EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES instead of directly returning the
result code of efi_add_memory_map(). The idea being that other users of the
EFI layer such as Linux or grub would not be affected by this internal
u-boot change.
V1:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1129402/
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1129403/
These two patches fix some inconsistent usage around efi_add_memory_map().
The first patch fixes the case where there is a mapping for an address
starting at 0 as is the case on RPI3. We should not print an error for
this. efi_add_memory_map(start = 0, ...) succeeds but
efi_carve_out_dt_rsv() does not properly parse the result code.
The second patch fixes the result code returned by efi_add_memory_map() in
two instances. Returing zero is the same as returning EFI_SUCCESS, we
should return one of the error codes from include/efi.h only, not zero to
indicate failure.
Bryan O'Donoghue (7):
efi_loader: Change return type of efi_add_memory_map()
efi_loader: Change efi_add_memory_map() to return EFI_SUCCESS
efi_loader: Return non-zero for error in efi_add_memory_map()
efi_loader: Update efi_allocate_pages() to new efi_add_memory_map()
efi_loader: Update efi_free_pages() to new efi_add_memory_map()
efi_loader: Treat the result of efi_add_memory_map as efi_status_t
efi_loader: Capture efi_add_memory_map() result efi_add_runtime_mmio()
Heinrich Schuchardt (1):
efi_loader: Add a method description to efi_add_memory_map
