PATCH 1/1 ibft: Fix finding ibft with ACPI tables

Found one system with UEFI/iBFT is not detected.

the root cause: for x86, We move calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier. in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

Try to all find_ibft_region() second times in ibft_init()

at that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus will get wrong phys from right virt address. We could just skip that printing.
For legacy one, print the found address early.

Found one system with UEFI/iBFT is not detected.

Excellent.

I have some comment in regards to the patch - it needs to be split in two: one part being _just_ the bug-fix, and the other being the cleanup/fixing printk.

Please fix the subject - it should say: "Fix finding IBFT ACPI tables on UEFI."

Quoted 3 lines

the root cause: for x86, We move calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier. in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

We move calling? When did the find_ibft_region() get moved?

I think you mean "find_ibft_region() gets called in setup_arch(), which is done before ACPI is enabled on UEFI. Hence it does not find the IBFT table' ?

What about the 'memblock_reserve' that find_ibft_region calls? Do we need to make a special call on UEFI to reserve that region? Or is that not neccessary since it is an ACPI table and has already been reserved?

Quoted 2 lines

Try to all find_ibft_region() second times in ibft_init()

^^^ - all? ^^^^ - time

How many iBFT tables are there? You can drop the 'all'.

Quoted 3 lines

at that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus will get wrong phys from right virt address.

.. "will get wrong physical address from the virtual address."

Quoted 1 line

We could just skip that printing.

That sounds like another patch - a cleanup patch actually.

On legacy hardware we will get then:

iBFT found at 0xXXX
...
iBFT detected.

Which I am not sure is really needed. We could just get rid of this iBFT found at 0xXX - but that is a seperate patch - a cleanup patch.

Peter, do you know if Anaconda scans the dmesg for the 'iBFT'? I presume not (since the SysFS exists).

Please resend the fix by itself and also a cleanup patch. Thank you!

Re: [PATCH -v3] ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFI

Quoted 21 lines · Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Quoted 6 lines · Yinghai Lu

Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during iscsi_ibft module loading.

Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier
- specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

I get this when compiling with make allmodconfig:

BUILD arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Setup is 16636 bytes (padded to 16896 bytes).
System is 4680 kB
CRC 88f70464
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#2)
ERROR: "acpi_table_parse" [drivers/firmware/iscsi_ibft.ko] undefined! make[3]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
make[2]: *** [modules] Error 2

Quoted 1 line

on 64-bit Fedora Core 16.

oh, my bad!

Sorry for that.

please check this one....

[PATCH -v4] ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFI

Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during iscsi_ibft module loading.

Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier
- specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later

At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address. We could just skip that phys address printing.

For legacy one, print the found address early.

-v2: update comments and description according to Konrad.
-v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad.
-v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..
