c47ed6fcb5 OvmfPkg: match PCI config access to machine type (if not
USE_OLD_PCI_HOST)

Edk2 commit 8a45f80eda ("MdeModulePkg: Make HII configuration settings
available to OS runtime") implements the optional UEFI feature described
in "31.2.11.1 OS Runtime Utilization" in UEFI v2.6.
While this feature might show benefits down the road even in QEMU virtual
machines, at the moment it only presents drawbacks:
- it increases the EfiRuntimeServicesData footprint,
- it triggers HII compatibility problems between edk2 and external drivers
unconditionally, even if the end-user is not interested in HII and/or in
configuring said drivers (see
<https://www.redhat.com/archives/vfio-users/2016-March/msg00153.html>
and <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.edk2.devel/9894> for an
example).
While the feature was being introduced, popular demand for a controlling
Feature PCD rose (see
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.edk2.devel/7626>), which is why
we can set it now to FALSE.

Since Hardware Error Record Persistence is an optional firmware feature,

The comments in the code should speak for themselves; here we note only
two facts:
- The PCI config space writes (to the PCIEXBAR register) are performed
using the 0xCF8 / 0xCFC IO ports, by virtue of PciLib being resolved to
BasePciLibCf8. (This library resolution will permanently remain in place
for the PEI phase.)
- Since PCIEXBAR counts as a chipset register, it is the responsibility of
the firmware to reprogram it at S3 resume. Therefore
PciExBarInitialization() is called regardless of the boot path. (Marcel
recently posted patches for SeaBIOS that implement this.)
This patch suffices to enable PCIEXBAR (and the dependent ACPI table
generation in QEMU), for the sake of "PCIeHotplug" in the Linux guest:
ACPI: MCFG 0x000000007E17F000 00003C

Change the image verification policy for option ROM images to 0x00
(ALWAYS_EXECUTE).
While this may not be a good idea for physical platforms (see e.g.
<https://trmm.net/Thunderstrike>), on the QEMU platform the benefits seem
to outweigh the drawbacks:
- For QEMU's virtual PCI devices, and for some assigned PCI devices, the
option ROMs come from host-side files, which can never be rewritten from
within the guest. Since the host admin has full control over a guest
anyway, executing option ROMs that originate from host-side files
presents no additional threat to the guest.
- For assigned physical PCI devices with option ROMs, the argument is not
so clear-cut. In theory a setup could exist where:
- the host-side UEFI firmware (with DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
rejects the option ROM of a malicious physical PCI device, but
- when the device is assigned to the guest, OVMF executes the option ROM
in the guest,
- the option ROM breaks out of the guest (using an assumed QEMU
vulnerability) and gains QEMU user privileges on the host.
However, in order to escalate as far as it would happen on the bare
metal with ALWAYS_EXECUTE (i.e., in order to gain firmware-level access
on the host), the malicious option ROM would have to break through (1)
QEMU, (2) traditional UID and GID based privilege separation on the
host, (3) sVirt (SELinux) on the host, (4) the host OS - host firmware
boundary. This is not impossible, but not likely enough to discourage
the use cases below.
- This patch makes it possible to use unsigned iPXE network drivers that
QEMU presents in the option ROMs of virtual NICs and assigned SR-IOV
VFs, even if Secure Boot is in User Mode or Deployed Mode.
- The change also makes it possible to execute unsigned, outdated
(revoked), or downright malicious option ROMs of assigned physical
devices in guests, for corporate, entertainment, academia, or security
research purposes.

Secure Boot support was originally addded to OvmfPkg on 2012-Mar-09, in
SVN r13093 (git 8cee3de7e9), titled
OvmfPkg: Enable secure-boot support when SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE==TRUE
At that time the image verification policies in
SecurityPkg/SecurityPkg.dec were:
- option ROM image: 0x00 (ALWAYS_EXECUTE)
- removable media image: 0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
- fixed media image: 0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
The author of SVN r13093 apparently didn't want to depend on the
SecurityPkg defaults for the latter two image origins, plus the
ALWAYS_EXECUTE policy for option ROM images must have been deemed too lax.
For this reason SVN r13093 immediately spelled out 0x05
(QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) within OvmfPkg for all three image
origins.
Fast forward to 2013-Aug-28: policy 0x05
(QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) had been forbidden in the UEFI spec,
and SVN r14607 (git db44ea6c4e) reflected this in the source code:
- The policies for the latter two image origins were switched from 0x05 to
0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) in SecurityPkg,
- the patch changed the default policy for option ROM images too, from
0x00 (ALWAYS_EXECUTE) to 0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION),
- any other client DSC files, including OvmfPkg's, underwent a whole-sale
0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) -> 0x04
(DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) replacement too.
The practical result of that patch for OvmfPkg was that the explicit 0x04
settings would equal the strict SecurityPkg defaults exactly.
And that's what we have today: the "override the default values from
SecurityPkg" comments in OvmfPkg's DSC files are stale, in practice.
It is extremely unlikely that SecurityPkg would change the defaults from
0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) any time in the future, so let's
just inherit those in OvmfPkg.

This patch complements the previous one, "OvmfPkg: use relaxed AP SMM
synchronization mode". While that patch focuses on the case when the SMI
is raised synchronously by the BSP, on the BSP:
BSPHandler() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
SmmWaitForApArrival() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
IsSyncTimerTimeout() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/SyncTimer.c]
this patch concerns itself with the case when it is one of the APs that
raises (and sees delivered) the synchronous SMI:
APHandler() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
IsSyncTimerTimeout() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/SyncTimer.c]
Namely, in APHandler() the AP waits for the BSP to enter SMM regardless of
PcdCpuSmmSyncMode, for PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout microseconds (the default
value is 1 second). If the BSP doesn't show up in SMM within that
interval, then the AP brings it in with a directed SMI, and waits for the
BSP again for PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout microseconds.
Although during boot services, SmmControl2DxeTrigger() is only called by
the BSP, at runtime the OS can invoke runtime services from an AP (it can
even be forced with "taskset -c 1 efibootmgr"). Because on QEMU
SmmControl2DxeTrigger() only raises the SMI for the calling processor (BSP
and AP alike), the first interval above times out invariably in such cases
-- the BSP never shows up before the AP calls it in.
In order to mitigate the performance penalty, decrease
PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout to one tenth of its default value: 100 ms. (For
comparison, Vlv2TbltDevicePkg sets 1 ms.)
NOTE: once QEMU becomes capable of synchronous broadcast SMIs, this patch
and the previous one ("OvmfPkg: use relaxed AP SMM synchronization mode")

Port 0xb2 on QEMU only sends an SMI to the currently executing processor.
The SMI handler, however, and in particular SmmWaitForApArrival, currently
expects that SmmControl2DxeTrigger triggers an SMI IPI on all processors
rather than just the BSP. Thus all SMM invocations loop for a second (the
default value of PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout) before SmmWaitForApArrival sends
another SMI IPI to the APs.
With the default SmmCpuFeaturesLib, 32-bit machines must broadcast SMIs
because 32-bit machines must reset the MTRRs on each entry to system
management modes (they have no SMRRs). However, our virtual platform
does not have problems with cacheability of SMRAM, so we can use "directed"
SMIs instead. To do this, just set gUefiCpuPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCpuSmmSyncMode
to 1 (aka SmmCpuSyncModeRelaxedAp). This fixes SMM on multiprocessor virtual
machines.

Explanation from Michael Kinney:
This PCD allows a platform to provide PlatformSmmBspElection() in a
platform specific SmmCpuPlatformHookLib instance to decide which CPU
gets elected to be the BSP in each SMI.
The SmmCpuPlatformHookLibNull [instance] always returns EFI_NOT_READY
for that function, which makes the module behave the same as the PCD
being set to FALSE.
The default is TRUE, so the platform lib is always called, so a platform
developer can implement the hook function and does not have to also
change a PCD setting for the hook function to be active.
A platform that wants to eliminate the call to the hook function
[altogether] can set the PCD to FALSE.
So for OVMF, I think it makes sense to set this PCD to FALSE in the DSC
file.

Although neither LocalApicLib instance is suitable for runtime DXE drivers
(because they access the APIC at the physical address retrieved from
either MSR_IA32_APIC_BASE_ADDRESS or PcdCpuLocalApicBaseAddress), they are
suitable for SMM drivers -- SMM drivers are not influenced by the runtime
OS's virtual address map.
PiSmmCpuDxeSmm links against LocalApicLib. 64-bit Linux guests tend to
enable x2apic mode even in simple VCPU configurations (e.g., 4 sockets, 1
core/socket, 1 thread/core):
[ 0.028173] x2apic enabled
If PiSmmCpuDxeSmm was linked with the BaseXApicLib instance (i.e., with no
x2apic support), then the next runtime service call that is backed by an
SMM driver triggers the following ASSERT in BaseXApicLib (because the
latter notices that x2apic has been enabled, which it doesn't support):
ASSERT .../UefiCpuPkg/Library/BaseXApicLib/BaseXApicLib.c(263):
ApicBaseMsr.Bits.Extd == 0
It is reasonable to give all LocalApicLib client modules in OVMF the same
level of x2apic support, hence resolve LocalApicLib globally to
BaseXApicX2ApicLib. This will not be conditional on -D SMM_REQUIRE,
because BaseXApicX2ApicLib is compatible with BaseXApicLib in any
environment where the latter can be used.

During DXE, drivers save data in the LockBox. A save operation is layered
as follows:
- The unprivileged driver wishing to store data in the LockBox links
against the "MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxDxeLib.inf"
library instance.
The library allows the unprivileged driver to format requests for the
privileged SMM LockBox driver (see below), and to parse responses.
We apply this resolution for DXE_DRIVER modules.
- The privileged SMM LockBox driver is built from
"MdeModulePkg/Universal/LockBox/SmmLockBox/SmmLockBox.inf". This driver
has module type DXE_SMM_DRIVER and can access SMRAM.
The driver delegates command parsing and response formatting to
"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxSmmLib.inf".
Therefore we include this DXE_SMM_DRIVER in the build, and apply said
resolution specifically to it.
(Including the driver requires us to resolve a few of other library
classes for DXE_SMM_DRIVER modules.)
- In PEI, the S3 Resume PEIM (UefiCpuPkg/Universal/Acpi/S3Resume2Pei)
retrieves data from the LockBox. It is capable of searching SMRAM
itself.
We resolve LockBoxLib to
"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf" specifically
for this one PEIM.

"MdeModulePkg/Core/PiSmmCore/PiSmmIpl.inf" (a DXE_RUNTIME_DRIVER)

(The SMM IPL also depends on EFI_SMM_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL_GUID, but this

is registered instead, hence we can delay providing that protocol via the

The SMM IPL loads the SMM core into SMRAM and executes it from there.
Therefore we add the SMM core to the build as well.
For the SMM core, a number of library classes need to be resolved.
Furthermore, each FDF file must provide the GenFds.py BaseTools utility
with a build rule for SMM_CORE; we copy the DXE_CORE's rule.

"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf" is the
LockBoxLib instance with SMRAM access for the PEI phase.
Said library instance must, and can, access the LockBox data in SMRAM
directly if it is invoked before SMBASE relocation / SMI handler
installation. In that case, it only needs PEI_SMM_ACCESS_PPI from the
platform, and it doesn't depend on EFI_PEI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_PPI.
OVMF satisfies the description in SVN r18823 ("MdeModulePkg:
SmmLockBoxPeiLib: work without EFI_PEI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_PPI"): in OVMF,
only S3Resume2Pei links against SmmLockBoxPeiLib.
Therefore, introduce a PEIM that produces the PEI_SMM_ACCESS_PPI
interface, enabling SmmLockBoxPeiLib to work; we can omit including
"UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCommunication/PiSmmCommunicationPei.inf".
The load / installation order of S3Resume2Pei and SmmAccessPei is
indifferent. SmmAccessPei produces the gEfiAcpiVariableGuid HOB during its
installation (which happens during PEI), but S3Resume2Pei accesses the HOB
only when the DXE IPL calls its S3RestoreConfig2 PPI member, as last act
of PEI.
MCH_SMRAM_D_LCK and MCH_ESMRAMC_T_EN are masked out the way they are, in
SmmAccessPeiEntryPoint() and SmramAccessOpen() respectively, in order to
prevent VS20xx from warning about the (otherwise fully intentional)
truncation in the UINT8 casts. (Warnings reported by Michael Kinney.)

Since PcdPropertiesTableEnable is used by the DXE Core (in the
InstallPropertiesTable() function, which runs at End-of-Dxe), we must also
change the PcdLib class resolution for that module, from the default
BasePcdLibNull to DxePcdLib.
Traditionally we've considered the DXE Core to be incapable of accessing
dynamic PCDs -- the PCD PPI is not available any longer to the DXE Core,
and the PCD Protocol is not available to it *yet*. There are exceptions
however: if the DXE Core can ensure, by whatever means, that the PCD
Protocol *is* available, then DxePcdLib will just work (the latter even
lists DXE_CORE as an allowed client module type). Namely, DxePcdLib looks
up the PCD Protocol dynamically, on the first library call that actually
needs it (for accessing a dynamic PCD); the lookup doesn't occur in a
library constructor.
And because the DXE Core fetches PcdPropertiesTableEnable at End-of-Dxe,
the PCD Protocol is definitely available then.
In addition, we change the default value of PcdPropertiesTableEnable from
the inherited TRUE to FALSE. It makes no difference at this point (our
runtime DXE drivers are not built with the required 4KB section alignment
anyway), but it's better to be clear about this. The properties table
feature requires OS compatibility, and it breaks Windows 7 minimally.
Therefore the default should be FALSE.

SVN rev 18166 ("MdeModulePkg DxeIpl: Add stack NX support") enables
platforms to request non-executable stack for the DXE phase, by setting
PcdSetNxForStack to TRUE.
The PCD defaults to FALSE, because:
(a) A non-executable DXE stack is a new feature and causes changes in
behavior. Some platform could rely on executing code from the stack.
(b) The code enabling NX in the DXE IPL PEIM enforces the
PcdSetNxForStack ==> PcdDxeIplBuildPageTables
implication for "64-bit PEI + 64-bit DXE" platforms, with a new
ASSERT(). Some platform might not comply with this requirement
immediately.
Regarding (a), in none of the OVMF builds do we try to execute code from
the stack.
Regarding (b):
- In the OvmfPkgX64.dsc build (which is where (b) applies) we simply
inherit the PcdDxeIplBuildPageTables|TRUE default from
"MdeModulePkg/MdeModulePkg.dec". Therefore we can set PcdSetNxForStack
to TRUE.
- In OvmfPkgIa32X64.dsc, page tables are built by default for DXE. Hence
we can set PcdSetNxForStack to TRUE.
- In OvmfPkgIa32.dsc, page tables used not to be necessary until now.
After we set PcdSetNxForStack to TRUE in this patch, the DXE IPL will
construct page tables even when it is built as part of OvmfPkgIa32.dsc,
provided the (virtual) hardware supports both PAE mode and the XD bit.
Should this setting cause problems in a GPU (or other device) passthru
scenario, with a UEFI_DRIVER in the PCI option rom attempting to execute
code from the stack, the feature can be dynamically disabled on the QEMU
command line, with "-cpu <MODEL>,-nx".

This commit introdues a new build option to OvmfPkg: HTTP_BOOT_ENABLE.
When HttpBoot is enabled, a new Network boot option will show in the
boot manager menu with the device path like this:
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/MAC(525400123456,0x1)/IPv4(0.0.0.0)/Uri()
It works like the PXE one but fetches the NBP from the given http
url instead of the tftp service.
A simple testing environment can be set up with the QEMU tap network
and dnsmasq + lighttpd.
Here is the example of the dnsmasq config:
interface=<tap interface>
dhcp-range=192.168.111.100,192.168.111.120,12h
dhcp-option=60,"HTTPClient"
dhcp-boot="http://<tap ip>/<efi file>"
It's similar to the PXE server settings except the tftp function is
disabled, the option 60 must be "HTTPClient", and the boot uri is a
http url.
