The EFI Graphics Output Protocol can return a 64-bit
linear frame buffer address in some firmware/BIOS
implementations. We currently only store the lower
32-bits in the lfb_base. This will eventually be
passed to Linux kernel and the efifb driver will
incorrectly interpret the framebuffer address as
32-bit address.
The Linux kernel has already added support to handle
64-bit linear framebuffer address in the efifb driver
since quite some time now.
This patch adds the support for 64-bit linear frame
buffer address in GRUB to address the above mentioned
scenario.

The definition of bpb's num_total_sectors_16 and num_total_sectors_32
is that either the 16-bit field is non-zero and is used (in which case
eg mkfs.fat sets the 32-bit field to zero), or it is zero and the
32-bit field is used. Therefore, a BPB is invalid only if *both*
fields are zero; having one field as zero and the other as non-zero is
the case to be expected. (Indeed, according to Microsoft's specification
one of the fields *must* be zero, and the other non-zero.)
This affects all users of grub_chainloader_patch_bpb which are in
chainloader.c, freedos.c, and ntldr.c
Some descriptions of the semantics of these two fields:
https://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/fs/fat/fat-1.html
The old 2-byte fields "total number of sectors" and "number of
sectors per FAT" are now zero; this information is now found in
the new 4-byte fields.
(Here given in the FAT32 EBPB section but the total sectors 16/32 bit
fields semantic is true of FAT12 and FAT16 too.)
https://wiki.osdev.org/FAT#BPB_.28BIOS_Parameter_Block.29
19 | 2 | The total sectors in the logical volume. If this value is 0,
it means there are more than 65535 sectors in the volume, and the actual
count is stored in "Large Sectors (bytes 32-35).
32 | 4 | Large amount of sector on media. This field is set if there
are more than 65535 sectors in the volume.
(Doesn't specify what the "large" field is set to when unused, but as
mentioned mkfs.fat sets it to zero then.)

0x13 | WORD | 0x0000 |
Small Sectors . The number of sectors on the volume represented in 16
bits (< 65,536). For volumes larger than 65,536 sectors, this field
has a value of zero and the Large Sectors field is used instead.
0x20 | DWORD | 0x01F03E00 |
Large Sectors . If the value of the Small Sectors field is zero, this
field contains the total number of sectors in the FAT16 volume. If the
value of the Small Sectors field is not zero, the value of this field
is zero.
https://staff.washington.edu/dittrich/misc/fatgen103.pdf page 10
BPB_TotSec16 | 19 | 2 |
This field is the old 16-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the
volume. This field can be 0; if it is 0, then BPB_TotSec32 must be
non-zero. For FAT32 volumes, this field must be 0. For FAT12 and
FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count, and
BPB_TotSec32 is 0 if the total sector count “fits” (is less than
0x10000).
BPB_TotSec32 | 32 | 4 |
This field is the new 32-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the
volume. This field can be 0; if it is 0, then BPB_TotSec16 must be
non-zero. For FAT32 volumes, this field must be non-zero. For
FAT12/FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count if
BPB_TotSec16 is 0 (count is greater than or equal to 0x10000).
(This specifies that an unused BPB_TotSec32 field is set to zero.)
By the way fix offsets in include/grub/fat.h.

In grub-core/gnulib/regexec.c use new __attribute__, because existing

Modern pvops linux kernels support a p2m list not covered by the
kernel mapping. This capability is flagged by an elf-note specifying
the virtual address the kernel is expecting the p2m list to be mapped
to.
In case the elf-note is set by the kernel don't place the p2m list
into the kernel mapping, but map it to the given address. This will
allow to support domains with larger memory, as the kernel mapping is
limited to 2GB and a domain with huge memory in the TB range will have

Currently multiboot2 protocol loads image exactly at address specified in
ELF or multiboot2 header. This solution works quite well on legacy BIOS
platforms. It is possible because memory regions are placed at predictable
addresses (though I was not able to find any spec which says that it is
strong requirement, so, it looks that it is just a goodwill of hardware
designers). However, EFI platforms are more volatile. Even if required
memory regions live at specific addresses then they are sometimes simply
not free (e.g. used by boot/runtime services on Dell PowerEdge R820 and
OVMF). This means that you are not able to just set up final image
destination on build time. You have to provide method to relocate image
contents to real load address which is usually different than load address
specified in ELF and multiboot2 headers.
This patch provides all needed machinery to do self relocation in image code.
First of all GRUB2 reads min_addr (min. load addr), max_addr (max. load addr),
align (required image alignment), preference (it says which memory regions are
preferred by image, e.g. none, low, high) from multiboot_header_tag_relocatable
header tag contained in binary (at this stage load addresses from multiboot2
and/or ELF headers are ignored). Later loader tries to fulfill request (not only
that one) and if it succeeds then it informs image about real load address via
multiboot_tag_load_base_addr tag. At this stage GRUB2 role is finished. Starting
from now executable must cope with relocations itself using whole static and
dynamic knowledge provided by boot loader.
This patch does not provide functionality which could do relocations using
ELF relocation data. However, I was asked by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk and Vladimir
'phcoder' Serbinenko to investigate that thing. It looks that relevant machinery
could be added to existing code (including this patch) without huge effort.
Additionally, ELF relocation could live in parallel with self relocation provided
by this patch. However, during research I realized that first of all we should
establish the details how ELF relocatable image should look like and how it should
be build. At least to build proper test/example files.
So, this patch just provides support for self relocatable images. If ELF file
with relocs is loaded then GRUB2 complains loudly and ignores it. Support for
such files will be added later.
This patch was tested with Xen image which uses that functionality. However, this Xen
feature is still under development and new patchset will be released in about 2-3 weeks.
