Christoph's patch removed two unsused exported symbols, however, one
symbol is used by the firmware_loader itself. If CONFIG_FW_LOADER=m so
the firmware_loader is modular but CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=y we fail
the build at mostpost.
ERROR: modpost: "fw_fallback_config" [drivers/base/firmware_loader/firmware_class.ko] undefined!
This happens because the variable fw_fallback_config is built into the
kernel if CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=y always, so we need to grant
access to the firmware loader module by exporting it.
Revert only one hunk from his patch.

In some cases the platform's main firmware (e.g. the UEFI fw) may contain
an embedded copy of device firmware which needs to be (re)loaded into the
peripheral. Normally such firmware would be part of linux-firmware, but in
some cases this is not feasible, for 2 reasons:
1) The firmware is customized for a specific use-case of the chipset / use
with a specific hardware model, so we cannot have a single firmware file
for the chipset. E.g. touchscreen controller firmwares are compiled
specifically for the hardware model they are used with, as they are
calibrated for a specific model digitizer.
2) Despite repeated attempts we have failed to get permission to
redistribute the firmware. This is especially a problem with customized
firmwares, these get created by the chip vendor for a specific ODM and the
copyright may partially belong with the ODM, so the chip vendor cannot
give a blanket permission to distribute these.
This commit adds a new platform fallback mechanism to the firmware loader
which will try to lookup a device fw copy embedded in the platform's main
firmware if direct filesystem lookup fails.
Drivers which need such embedded fw copies can enable this fallback
mechanism by using the new firmware_request_platform() function.
Note that for now this is only supported on EFI platforms and even on
these platforms firmware_fallback_platform() only works if
CONFIG_EFI_EMBEDDED_FIRMWARE is enabled (this gets selected by drivers
which need this), in all other cases firmware_fallback_platform() simply
always returns -ENOENT.

fw_sysfs_wait_timeout may return err with -ENOENT
at fw_load_sysfs_fallback and firmware is already
in abort status, no need to abort again, so skip it.
This issue is caused by concurrent situation like below:
when thread 1# wait firmware loading, thread 2# may write
-1 to abort loading and wakeup thread 1# before it timeout.
so wait_for_completion_killable_timeout of thread 1# would
return remaining time which is != 0 with fw_st->status
FW_STATUS_ABORTED.And the results would be converted into
err -ENOENT in __fw_state_wait_common and transfered to
fw_load_sysfs_fallback in thread 1#.
The -ENOENT means firmware status is already at ABORTED,
so fw_load_sysfs_fallback no need to get mutex to abort again.
-----------------------------

95 return -ENOENT;

I have an experimental setup where almost every possible system
service (even early startup ones) runs in separate namespace, using a
dedicated, minimal file system. In process of minimizing the contents
of the file systems with regards to modules and firmware files, I
noticed that in my system, the firmware files are loaded from three
different mount namespaces, those of systemd-udevd, init and
systemd-networkd. The logic of the source namespace is not very clear,
it seems to depend on the driver, but the namespace of the current
process is used.
So, this patch tries to make things a bit clearer and changes the
loading of firmware files only from the mount namespace of init. This
may also improve security, though I think that using firmware files as
attack vector could be too impractical anyway.
Later, it might make sense to make the mount namespace configurable,
for example with a new file in /proc/sys/kernel/firmware_config/. That
would allow a dedicated file system only for firmware files and those
need not be present anywhere else. This configurability would make
more sense if made also for kernel modules and /sbin/modprobe. Modules
are already loaded from init namespace (usermodehelper uses kthreadd
namespace) except when directly loaded by systemd-udevd.
Instead of using the mount namespace of the current process to load
firmware files, use the mount namespace of init process.

Intel Software Developer's Manual, volume 3, chapter 9.11.6 says:
"Note that the microcode update must be aligned on a 16-byte boundary
and the size of the microcode update must be 1-KByte granular"
When early-load Intel microcode is loaded from initramfs, userspace tool
'iucode_tool' has already 16-byte aligned those microcode bits in that
initramfs image. Image that was created something like this:
iucode_tool --write-earlyfw=FOO.cpio microcode-files...
However, when early-load Intel microcode is loaded from built-in
firmware BLOB using CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE= kernel config option, that
16-byte alignment is not guaranteed.
Fix this by forcing all built-in firmware BLOBs to 16-byte alignment.
[ If we end up having other firmware with much bigger alignment
requirements, we might need to introduce some method for the firmware
to specify it, this is the minimal "just increase the alignment a bit
to account for this one special case" patch - Linus ]

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l

macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them

This patch adds the support for loading compressed firmware files.
The primary motivation is to reduce the storage size; e.g. currently
the files in /lib/firmware on my machine counts up to 419MB, while
they can be reduced to 130MB by file compression.
The patch introduces a new kconfig option CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS.
Even with this option set, the firmware loader still tries to load the
original firmware file as-is at first, but then falls back to the file
with ".xz" extension when it's not found, and the decompressed file
content is returned to the caller of request_firmware(). So, no
change is needed for the rest.
Currently only XZ format is supported. A caveat is that the kernel XZ
helper code supports only CRC32 (or none) integrity check type, so
you'll have to compress the files via xz -C crc32 option.
Since we can't determine the expanded size immediately from an XZ
file, the patch re-uses the paged buffer that was used for the
user-mode fallback; it puts the decompressed content page, which are
vmapped at the end. The paged buffer code is conditionally built with
a new Kconfig that is selected automatically.

The firmware loader queries if LSM/IMA permits it to load firmware
via the sysfs fallback. Unfortunately, the code does the opposite:
it expressly permits sysfs fw loading if security_kernel_load_data(
LOADING_FIRMWARE) returns -EACCES. This happens because a
zero-on-success return value is cast to a bool that's true on success.
Fix the return value handling so we get the correct behaviour.

When calling request_firmware_into_buf() with the FW_OPT_NOCACHE flag
it is expected that firmware is loaded into buffer from memory.
But inside alloc_lookup_fw_priv every new firmware that is loaded is
added to the firmware cache (fwc) list head. So if any driver requests
a firmware that is already loaded the code iterates over the above
mentioned list and it can end up giving a pointer to other device driver's
firmware buffer.
Also the existing copy may either be modified by drivers, remote processors
or even freed. This causes a potential security issue with batched requests
when using request_firmware_into_buf.
Fix alloc_lookup_fw_priv to not add to the fwc head list if FW_OPT_NOCACHE
is set, and also don't do the lookup in the list.

Some architectures do not define certain PAGE_KERNEL_* flags, this is
either because:
a) The way to implement some of these flags is *not yet ported*, or
b) The architecture *has no way* to describe them
Over time we have accumulated a few PAGE_KERNEL_* fallback workarounds
for architectures in the kernel which do not define them using
*relatively safe* equivalents. Move these scattered fallback hacks into
asm-generic.
We start off with PAGE_KERNEL_RO using PAGE_KERNEL as a fallback. This
has been in place on the firmware loader for years. Move the fallback
into the respective asm-generic header.

Currently the firmware loader only exposes one silent path for querying
optional firmware, and that is firmware_request_direct(). This function
also disables the sysfs fallback mechanism, which might not always be the
desired behaviour [0].
This patch introduces a variations of request_firmware() that enable the
caller to disable the undesired warning messages but enables the sysfs
fallback mechanism. This is equivalent to adding FW_OPT_NO_WARN to the
old behaviour.

If we resort to using the sysfs fallback mechanism we don't print
the filename. This can be deceiving given we could have a series of
callers intertwined and it'd be unclear exactly for what firmware
this was meant for.
Additionally, although we don't currently use FW_OPT_NO_WARN when
dealing with the fallback mechanism, we will soon, so just respect
its use consistently.
And even if you *don't* want to print always on failure, you may
want to print when debugging so enable dynamic debug print when
FW_OPT_NO_WARN is used.

Some devices have an optimization in place to enable the firmware to
be retaineed during a system reboot, so after reboot the device can skip
requesting and loading the firmware. This can save up to 1s in load
time. The mt7601u 802.11 device happens to be such a device.
When these devices retain the firmware on a reboot and then suspend
they can miss looking for the firmware on resume. To help with this we
need a way to cache the firmware when such an optimization has taken
place.

request_firmware_into_buf() explicitly disables the firmware cache,
meanwhile the firmware cache cannot be used when request_firmware_nowait()
is used without the uevent. Enforce a sanity check for this to avoid future
issues undocumented behaviours should misuses of the firmware cache
happen later.
One of the reasons we want to enforce this is the firmware cache is
used for helping with suspend/resume, and if incompatible calls use it
they can stall suspend.

Currently fw_add_devm_name() returns 1 if the firmware cache
was already set. This makes it complicated for us to check for
correctness. It is actually non-fatal if the firmware cache
is already setup, so just return 0, and simplify the checkers.
fw_add_devm_name() adds device's name onto the devres for the
device so that prior to suspend we cache the firmware onto memory,
so that on resume the firmware is reliably available. We never
were checking for success for this call though, meaning in some
really rare cases we my have never setup the firmware cache for
a device, which could in turn make resume fail.
This is all theoretical, no known issues have been reported.
This small issue has been present way since the addition of the
devres firmware cache names on v3.7.

You currently need four different kernel builds to test the firmware
API fully. By adding a proc knob to force disable the fallback mechanism
completely we are able to reduce the amount of kernels you need built
to test the firmware API down to two.

Currently one requires to test four kernel configurations to test the
firmware API completely:
0)
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y
1)
o CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y
o CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=y
2)
o CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y
o CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=y
o CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK=y
3) When CONFIG_FW_LOADER=m the built-in stuff is disabled, we have
no current tests for this.
We can reduce the requirements to three kernel configurations by making
fw_config.force_sysfs_fallback a proc knob we flip on off. For kernels that
disable CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC this can also enable one to inspect if
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK was enabled at build time by checking
the proc value at boot time.
