When rebooting DOM0 with ACPI, the kernel is crashing with the stack trace [1].
This is happening because when EFI runtimes are enabled, the reset code
(see machin_restart) will first try to use EFI restart method.
However, the EFI restart code is expecting the reset_system callback to
be always set. This is not the case for Xen and will lead to crash.
Looking at the reboot path, it is expected to fallback on an alternative
reboot method if one does not work. So implement reset_system callback
as a NOP for Xen.

The x86 code has theoritically a similar issue, altought EFI does not
seem to be the preferred method. I have left it unimplemented on x86 and
CCed Linux Xen x86 maintainers to know their view here.
This should also probably be fixed in stable tree.

I don't see any problem with such a routine added, in contrast to
potential "reboots" instead of power off without it.
So I think this dummy xen_efi_reset_system() should be added to
drivers/xen/efi.c instead.

Yes.

I will resend the patch during day with xen_efi_reset_system moved to
common code and implement the x86 counterpart (thought, I will not be
able to test it).

I'm rather sure it isn't hit very often. Otherwise there would be more
complaints about crashes during power off (in fact I do remember several
occasions where somebody claimed power off seemed to do a reboot only).

I think that this is ARM specific issue. On x86 machine_restart() calls
xen_restart(). Hence, everything works. So, I think that it should be
fixed only for ARM. Anyway, please CC me when you send a patch.

This thread already a fix for ARM64. So do I need to resend a patch with
x86 fixed or not?

Yes please. Daniel is correct that we are safe with xen_restart().
However, we are not safe when machine_ops.power_off is called.
Thanks.

What about xen_machine_power_off() (as stated in Boris' mail)?

Julien, for ARM64 please take a look at arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:efi_poweroff_required(void).
I hope that tweaks for both files should solve our problem.

This sounds good for power off (I haven't tried to power off DOM0 yet).
But this will not solve the restart problem (see machine_restart in
arch/arm64/kernel/process.c) which call directly efi_reboot.

[Adding the EFI maintainers]
Tl;DR: Xen's EFI wrappery doesn't implement reset_system, so when
invoked on arm64 we get a NULL dereference.

Please, let's keep the Xen knowledge constrained to the Xen EFI wrapper,
rather than spreading it further.
IMO, given reset_system is a *mandatory* function, the Xen wrapper
should provide an implementation.
I don't see why you can't implement a wrapper that calls the usual Xen
poweroff/reset functions.
Thanks,
Mark.

Hmmm... It seems to me that efi.reset_system override with empty function
in arch/arm/xen/efi.c is the best solution. So, I see three patches here.
One for drivers/firmware/efi/reboot.c, one for arch/arm/xen/efi.c and one
for arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c. Does it make sense?

I still think the empty function should be in drivers/xen/efi.c and we
should use it in arch/x86/xen/efi.c, too.

If you wish we can go that way too. Though I thing that we should fix
drivers/firmware/efi/reboot.c:efi_shutdown_init() too. Just in case.

I realise I'm making a sweeping generalisation, but adding
EFI_PARAVIRT is almost always the wrong thing to do.
I'd much prefer to see Mark's idea implemented.

For the Xen on ARM side, the original patch that started this thread

Because it makes paravirt a special case, and there's usually very
little reason to make it special in the EFI code. Special-casing means
more branches, more code paths, a bigger testing matrix and more
complex code.
EFI_PARAVIRT does have its uses, like for those scenarios where we
don't have a table of function pointers that can be overidden for
paravirt.
But we do have such a table for ->reset_system().

This is more or less what I expected. Thanks a lot for explanation.

Yes. I looked at bit closer to the problem mention with power off.
xen_efi_reset_system cannot be a NOP because there may not be fallback
alternatives (see machine_power_off in arch/arm64/kernel/process.c)
So I think we would have to translate EFI_RESET* to Xen SHUTDOWN_* and
then call HYPERVISOR_sched_op directly.
I will send a new version soon.
Cheers,
