This patchset applies to v2.6.38-rc6.
The following series exports information the DMI / SMBIOS tables via
sysfs under the path /sys/firmware/dmi.
For our purposes, we actively use the System Event Log, as described by
DMI entry Type 15. Currently, we have to grub around /dev/mem to find
this thing, and potentially need to issue IOs directly from userland to
get at the event log, which is suboptimal in terms of security and
architecture.
This series implements the basics needed to iterate through the DMI
entries safely from userland. Each entry has the handle, the formatted
length and the raw bytes exposed in their own sub-directory under
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/<type>-<instance>.
As well, this series explodes type 15 as a proof-of-concept of how we
can expose kernel interpretations of the entry data. For most entries,
there isn't much sense in parsing the entry and exposing each field
as a sysfs attribute as they can be interpreted from userland by
accessing the raw entry itself. Type 15 however describes an
indirection (pointing at the system event log), and it is generally
useful to export this log in raw form to the user (which requires
interpreting the DMI entry).
This driver relies solely on dmi_walk() for access to the dmi entries.
They are not kept mapped in the "rest" state. The only bits memo-ized
by the objects in sysfs are the dmi headers, which are used to the find
the entries via dmi_walk on read. Reading the raw bytes however is
'uncached' by this driver, so that any changes to the entries themselves
are reflected properly by the user-exposed interface.
We intend to use this on our production servers, though it seems to
also be sufficient in suiting Chrome OS's needs
(http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=6795).
Thanks,
Mike Waychison

Changelog:
==========
- v2
- Added 'type', 'instance' and 'position' attributes to each DMI entry.
- Don't printk KERN_INFO on module load/unload.
- Default to 'n' for Kconfig.
- Grammar fixes.
- Fixed bug reading raw files when multiple instances of the same
type exist.
- v1
- Initial public send-out.
Introduce a new module "dmi-sysfs" that exports the broken out entries
of the DMI table through sysfs.
Entries are enumerated via dmi_walk() on module load, and are populated
as kobjects rooted at /sys/firmware/dmi/entries.
Entries are named "<type>-<instance>", where:
<type> : is the type of the entry, and
<instance> : is the ordinal count within the DMI table of that
entry type. This instance is used in lieu the DMI
entry's handle as no assurances are made by the kernel
that handles are unique.
All entries export the following attributes:
length : The length of the formatted portion of the entry
handle : The handle given to this entry by the firmware
raw : The raw bytes of the entire entry, including the
formatted portion, the unformatted (strings) portion,
and the two terminating nul characters.
type : The DMI entry type
instance : The ordinal instance of this entry given its type.
position : The position ordinal of the entry within the table in
its entirety.
Entries in dmi-sysfs are kobject backed members called "struct
dmi_sysfs_entry" and belong to dmi_kset. They are threaded through
entry_list (protected by entry_list_lock) so that we can find them at
cleanup time.

Changelog:
- v2
- Added 'type', 'instance' and 'position' attributes to each DMI entry.
- Fixed module to default to 'n'.
- Fixed copyright year and module author.
- Replace module load/unload messages with pr_debug().
- Fixed a bug in handling multiple instance of the same type where
reading the raw file for earlier instances would result in 0 bytes
read due to the instance_count getting stuck at '0'.

The System Event Log described by DMI entry type 15 may be backed by
either memory or may be indirectly accessed via an IO index/data
register pair.
In order to get read access to this log, expose it in the
"system_event_log" sub-directory of type 15 DMI entries, ie:
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log/raw_event_log.
This commit handles both IO accessed and memory access system event
logs. OEM specific access and GPNV support is explicitly not handled
and we error out in the logs when we do not recognize the access method.

+What: /sys/firmware/dmi/
+Date: February 2011
+Contact: Mike Waychison <[email protected]>
+Description:
+ Many machines' firmware (x86 and ia64) export DMI /
+ SMBIOS tables to the operating system. Getting at this
+ information is often valuable to userland, especially in
+ cases where there are OEM extensions used.
+
+ The kernel itself does not rely on the majority of the
+ information in these tables being correct. It equally
+ cannot ensure that the data as exported to userland is
+ without error either.
+
+ DMI is structured as a large table of entries, where
+ each entry has a common header indicating the type and
+ length of the entry, as well as 'handle' that is
+ supposed to be unique amongst all entries.
+
+ Some entries are required by the specification, but many
+ others are optional. In general though, users should
+ never expect to find a specific entry type on their
+ system unless they know for certain what their firmware
+ is doing. Machine to machine will vary.
+
+ Multiple entries of the same type are allowed. In order
+ to handle these duplicate entry types, each entry is
+ assigned by the operating system an 'instance', which is
+ derived from an entry type's ordinal position. That is
+ to say, if there are 'N' multiple entries with the same type
+ 'T' in the DMI tables (adjacent or spread apart, it
+ doesn't matter), they will be represented in sysfs as
+ entries "T-0" through "T-(N-1)":
+
+ Example entry directories:
+
+ /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-0
+ /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-1
+ /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-2
+ /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-3
+ ...
+
+ Instance numbers are used in lieu of the firmware
+ assigned entry handles as the kernel itself makes no
+ guarantees that handles as exported are unique, and
+ there are likely firmware images that get this wrong in
+ the wild.
+
+ Each DMI entry in sysfs has the common header values
+ exported as attributes:
+
+ handle : The 16bit 'handle' that is assigned to this
+ entry by the firmware. This handle may be
+ referred to by other entries.
+ length : The length of the entry, as presented in the
+ entry itself. Note that this is _not the
+ total count of bytes associated with the
+ entry_. This value represents the length of
+ the "formatted" portion of the entry. This
+ "formatted" region is sometimes followed by
+ the "unformatted" region composed of nul
+ terminated strings, with termination signalled
+ by a two nul characters in series.
+ raw : The raw bytes of the entry. This includes the
+ "formatted" portion of the entry, the
+ "unformatted" strings portion of the entry,
+ and the two terminating nul characters.
+ type : The type of the entry. This value is the same
+ as found in the directory name. It indicates
+ how the rest of the entry should be
+ interpreted.
+ instance: The instance ordinal of the entry for the
+ given type. This value is the same as found
+ in the parent directory name.
+ position: The position of the entry within the entirety
+ of the entirety.
+
+ === Entry Specialization ===
+
+ Some entry types may have other information available in
+ sysfs.
+
+ --- Type 15 - System Event Log ---
+
+ This entry allows the firmware to export a log of
+ events the system has taken. This information is
+ typically backed by nvram, but the implementation
+ details are abstracted by this table. This entries data
+ is exported in the directory:
+
+ /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log
+
+ and has the following attributes (documented in the
+ SMBIOS / DMI specification under "System Event Log (Type 15)":
+
+ area_length
+ header_start_offset
+ data_start_offset
+ access_method
+ status
+ change_token
+ access_method_address
+ header_format
+ per_log_type_descriptor_length
+ type_descriptors_supported_count
+
+ As well, the kernel exports the binary attribute:
+
+ raw_event_log : The raw binary bits of the event log
+ as described by the DMI entry.
The optional type 15 entry of the DMI table describes a non-volatile
storage-backed system event log.
In preparation for the next commit which exposes the raw bits of the
event log to userland, create a new sub-directory within the dmi entry
called "system_event_log" and expose attribute files that describe the
event log itself.
Currently, only a single child object is permitted within a
dmi_sysfs_entry. We simply point at this child from the dmi_sysfs_entry
if it exists.

I'm seeing some unaligned references from this function
on ia64. Code is loading a 2-byte value from an odd
address. We are dereferencing "dh", so looking at the
dmi_header definition, I'd have thought that we must
be touching dh->handle:
struct dmi_header {
u8 type;
u8 length;
u16 handle;
};
I don't see any code in this function that does this,
so I assume there is some inlining or macro stuff
happening.

Ya, I don't think there is anything that guarantees that dmi_header is
aligned. The access is probably the struct copy I did here:
/* Set the key */
entry->dh = *dh;
What if we changed that guy to use memcpy? We'd probably need to
memcpy the dmi_system_event_log as well. Patch attached (applies on
top of the entire patchset).

Yup - looking back at the assembly I see that one of the 2-byte
accesses is offset 2
(picking up ->handle), but the second is offset 0 (picking up ->type
and ->length). The
compiler assumed the structure was 2-byte aligned because of ->handle.

With the patch, all the unaligned accesses go away.

DMI entries are arranged in memory back to back with no alignment
guarantees. This means that the struct dmi_header passed to callbacks
from dmi_walk() itself isn't byte aligned. This causes problems on
architectures that expect aligned data, such as IA64.
The dmi-sysfs patchset introduced structure member accesses through
this passed in dmi_header. Fix this by memcpy()ing the structures to
temporary locations on stack when inspecting/copying them.

This patch is corrupted. I tried to edit it by hand, but git still
didn't like it.
Please resend using whatever you did for your other patches, as this way
was not correct :(
