The ELF based toolchains use objcopy to create HII object files, which
contain only a single .hii section. This means no GNU note is inserted
that describes the object as compatible with BTI, even though the lack
of executable code in such an object makes the distinction irrelevant.
However, the linker will not add the note globally to the resulting ELF
executable, and this breaks BTI compatibility.
So let's insert a GNU BTI-compatible ELF note by hand when generating
such object files.

When building with -mbranch-protection=bti, which affects the compiler

this, by emitting the BTI C opcode at the start of each exported

indirectly, whether or not this is the case is a property of the caller
so annotating every exported function is a reasonable default.

Currently, the ARM MMU page table logic will break down any block entry
that overlaps with the region being mapped, even if the block entry in
question is using the same attributes as the new region.
This means that creating a non-executable mapping inside a region that
is already mapped non-executable at a coarser granularity may trigger a
call to AllocatePages (), which may recurse back into the page table
code to update the attributes on the newly allocated page tables.
Let's avoid this, by preserving the block entry if it already covers the

Currently, the MMU code that is supposed to clear the RO or XP

approximates the desired behavior to some extent, but it does mean that
setting the RO bit first on a code region, and then clearing the XP bit
results both RO and XP being cleared, and we end up with writable code,
and avoiding that is the point of all these protections.
Once we introduce RP support, this will only get worse, so let's fix
this up, by reshuffling the attribute update code to take the entry mask
from the caller, and use the mask to preserve other attributes when

Large page support on 32-bit ARM is essentially a glorified contiguous

EFI, where the page granularity is 4k and we expect to be able to set RO

We never run any code at EL0, and so it would seem that any access

irrelevant. We currently set EL0 and EL1 permissions to the same value
arbitrarily.
However, this causes problems on hardware like the Apple M1 running the
MacOS hypervisor framework, which enters EL1 with SCTLR_EL1.SPAN
enabled, causing the Privileged Access Never (PAN) feature to be enabled
on any exception taken to EL1, including the IRQ exceptions that handle
our timer interrupt. When PAN is enabled, EL1 has no access to any
mappings that are also accessible to EL0, causing the firmware to crash
if it attempts to access such a mapping.
Even though it is debatable whether or not SCTLR_EL1.SPAN should be
disabled at entry or whether the firmware should put all UNKNOWN bits in
all system registers in a consistent state (which it should), using EL0
permissions serves no purpose whatsoever so let's fix that regardless.

LinuxBoot is a firmware that replaces specific firmware functionality
like the UEFI DXE phase with a Linux kernel and runtime. It is built-in
UEFI image like an application, which is executed at the end of DXE
phase.
To achieve the LinuxBoot boot flow "SEC->PEI->DXE->BDS->LinuxBoot",
today we use the common well-known GUID of UEFI Shell for LinuxBoot
payload, so LinuxBoot developers can effortlessly find the UEFI Shell
Application and replace it with the LinuxBoot payload without
recompiling platform EDK2 (There might be an issue with a few systems
that don't have a UEFI Shell). Also, we have a hard requirement to force
the BDS to boot into the LinuxBoot as it is essentially required that
only the LinuxBoot boot option is permissible and UEFI is an
intermediate bootstrap phase. Considering all the above, it is
reasonable to just have a new GUID for LinuxBoot and require a LinuxBoot
specific BDS implementation. In addition, with making the BDS
implementation simpler, we can reduce many DXE drivers which we think it
is not necessary for LinuxBoot booting.
This patch adds a new PlatformBootManagerLib implementation which
registers only the gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdLinuxBootFileGuid for LinuxBoot
payload as an active boot option. It allows BDS to jump to the LinuxBoot
quickly by skipping the UiApp and UEFI Shell.
The PlatformBootManagerLib library derived from
ArmPkg/Library/PlatformBootManagerLib.

However, in the error handling logic for the Get/Set Memory attributes,
the CLANG compiler reports that a status variable could be used without
initialisation. This issue is a false positive and is not seen with GCC.
The Get/Set Memory attributes operation is atomic and therefore an
FFA_INTERRUPT or FFA_SUCCESS response is not expected in response
to FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ. So the remaining cases that could occur
are:
- the target sends FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_RESP with a success or
failure code.
or
- FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ transmission failure.
Therefore,
- reorder the error handling conditions such that it prevents the
uninitialised variable issue being flagged by CLANG.
- move the repetitive code to a static helper function and add
documentation at the appropriate places.
- fix error handling in functions that invoke GetMemoryPermissions().
