Current implementation of grub_relocator_alloc_chunk_align()
does not allow allocation of the top byte.
Assuming input args are:
max_addr = 0xfffff000;
size = 0x1000;
And this is valid. But following overflow protection will
unnecessarily move max_addr one byte down (to 0xffffefff):
if (max_addr > ~size)
max_addr = ~size;
~size + 1 will fix the situation. In addition, check size
for non zero to do not zero max_addr.

Defining a new function with the same name as a previously defined
function causes the grub_script and associated resources for the
previous function to be freed. If the previous function is currently
executing when a function with the same name is defined, this results
in use-after-frees when processing subsequent commands in the original
function.
Instead, reject a new function definition if it has the same name as
a previously defined function, and that function is currently being
executed. Although a behavioural change, this should be backwards
compatible with existing configurations because they can't be
dependent on the current behaviour without being broken.

This commit introduces integer underflow mitigation in max_addr calculation

It consists of 2 fixes:
1. Introduced grub_relocator_alloc_chunk_align_safe() wrapper function to perform
sanity check for min/max and size values, and to make safe invocation of
grub_relocator_alloc_chunk_align() with validated max_addr value. Replace all
invocations such as grub_relocator_alloc_chunk_align(..., min_addr, max_addr - size, size, ...)
by grub_relocator_alloc_chunk_align_safe(..., min_addr, max_addr, size, ...).
2. Introduced UP_TO_TOP32(s) macro for the cases where max_addr is 32-bit top
address (0xffffffff - size + 1) or similar.

There is not need to reassemble the order of blocks. Per RFC 1350,
server must wait for the ACK, before sending next block. Data packets
can be served immediately without putting them to priority queue.
Logic to handle incoming packet is this:
- if packet block id equal to expected block id, then
process the packet,
- if packet block id is less than expected - this is retransmit
of old packet, then ACK it and drop the packet,
- if packet block id is more than expected - that shouldn't
happen, just drop the packet.
It makes the tftp receive path code simpler, smaller and faster.
As a benefit, this change fixes CID# 73624 and CID# 96690, caused

The code flex generates expects that YY_FATAL_ERROR() will either return
for it or do some form of longjmp(), or handle the error in some way at
least, and so the strncpy() call isn't in an "else" clause, and thus if
YY_FATAL_ERROR() is *not* actually fatal, it does the call with the
questionable limit, and predictable results ensue.
Unfortunately, our implementation of YY_FATAL_ERROR() is:
#define YY_FATAL_ERROR(msg) \
do { \
grub_printf (_("fatal error: %s\n"), _(msg)); \
} while (0)
The same pattern exists in yyless(), and similar problems exist in users
of YY_INPUT(), several places in the main parsing loop,
yy_get_next_buffer(), yy_load_buffer_state(), yyensure_buffer_stack,

"Unsupported cache type 0x........" message.
This is pretty likely to happen when running in a virtual machine

a bunch of Cortex-A55 cores, which implements CTR.IDC).
It turns out that the way GRUB deals with the CTR register is a bit
harsh for anything from ARMv7 onwards. The layout of the register is
backward compatible, meaning that nothing that gets added is allowed to
break earlier behaviour. In this case, ignoring IDC is completely fine,
and only results in unnecessary cache maintenance.
We can thus avoid being paranoid, and align the 32bit behaviour with

This is caused by a wrong calculation of the previous free space position

That position is calculated to fill the remaining of the buffer with the

The issue can be reproduced by creating a variable with a large value and
then try to set a new value that is much smaller:

call will consume that key from the firmware's queue.
The new grub_console_read_key_stroke() helper buffers upto 1 key-stroke.
If it has a non-modifier key buffered, it will return that one, if its
buffer is empty, it will fills its buffer by getting a new key-stroke.
If called with consume=1 it will empty its buffer after copying the
key-data to the callers buffer, this is how getkey() will use it.
If called with consume=0 it will keep the last key-stroke buffered, this
is how getkeystatus() will call it. This means that if a non-modifier
key gets pressed, repeated getkeystatus() calls will return the modifiers
of that key-press until it is consumed by a getkey() call.

"Although the size of a zero-length array is zero, an array member of
this kind may increase the size of the enclosing type as a result of
tail padding. The offset of a zero-length array member from the
beginning of the enclosing structure is the same as the offset of an
array with one or more elements of the same type. The alignment of a
zero-length array is the same as the alignment of its elements.
Declaring zero-length arrays in other contexts, including as interior
members of structure objects or as non-member objects, is discouraged.
Accessing elements of zero-length arrays declared in such contexts is
undefined and may be diagnosed."
The l_hash[0] is apparnetly an interior member to the enclosed structure
while l_entries[0] is the trailing member. And the offending code tries
to access members in l_hash[0] array that triggers the diagnose.
Given that the l_entries[0] is used to get proper alignment to access
leaf chunks, we can accomplish the same thing through the ALIGN_UP macro
thus eliminating l_entries[0] from the structure. In this way we can
pacify the warning as l_hash[0] now becomes the last member to the
enclosed structure.

The LVM cache logical volume is the logical volume consisting of the original
and the cache pool logical volume. The original is usually on a larger and
slower storage device while the cache pool is on a smaller and faster one. The
performance of the original volume can be improved by storing the frequently
used data on the cache pool to utilize the greater performance of faster
device.
The default cache mode "writethrough" ensures that any data written will be
stored both in the cache and on the origin LV, therefore grub can be straight
to read the original lv as no data loss is guarenteed.
The second cache mode is "writeback", which delays writing from the cache pool
back to the origin LV to have increased performance. The drawback is potential
data loss if losing the associated cache device.
During the boot time grub reads the LVM offline i.e. LVM volumes are not
activated and mounted, hence it should be fine to read directly from original
lv since all cached data should have been flushed back in the process of taking
it offline.
It is also not much helpful to the situation by adding fsync calls to the
install code. The fsync did not force to write back dirty cache to the original
device and rather it would update associated cache metadata to complete the
write transaction with the cache device. IOW the writes to cached blocks still
go only to the cache device.
To write back dirty cache, as LVM cache did not support dirty cache flush per
block range, there'no way to do it for file. On the other hand the "cleaner"
policy is implemented and can be used to write back "all" dirty blocks in a
cache, which effectively drain all dirty cache gradually to attain and last in
the "clean" state, which can be useful for shrinking or decommissioning a
cache. The result and effect is not what we are looking for here.
In conclusion, as it seems no way to enforce file writes to the original
device, grub may suffer from power failure as it cannot assemble the cache
device and read the dirty data from it. However since the case is only
applicable to writeback mode which is sensitive to data lost in nature, I'd
still like to propose my (relatively simple) patch and treat reading dirty
cache as improvement.

All other video drivers use "video" as the debug condition instead of "fb"
so change this in the efi/uga driver to make it consistent with the others.

No messages were printed in this function, add some to ease debugging.
Also, the function returns a void * pointer so return NULL instead of
0 to make the code more readable.

We get 64 bit from PCI BAR but then truncate by assigning to 32 bit.
Make sure to check that pointer does not overflow on 32 bit platform.

EFI GOP has support for multiple different bitness types of frame buffers
and for a special "BLT only" type which is always defined to be RGBx.
Because grub2 doesn't ever directly access the frame buffer but instead
only renders graphics via the BLT interface anyway, we can easily support
these adapters.
The reason this has come up now is the emerging support for virtio-gpu
in OVMF. That adapter does not have the notion of a memory mapped frame
buffer and thus is BLT only.
