Since commit bb0bb91cf0aa ("efi_stub: Use efi_uintn_t"), EFI x86
64-bit payload does not work anymore. The call to GetMemoryMap()
in efi_stub.c fails with return code EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER. Since
the payload itself is still 32-bit U-Boot, efi_uintn_t gets wrongly
interpreted as int, but it should actually be long in a 64-bit EFI
environment.

Above you say 64-bit payload and now you say 32-bit?

Why don't you compile U-Boot as 64-bit? How do you want to load a 64bit
Linux EFI stub from an 32-bit EFI implementation in U-Boot?

NAK

This change will create a lot of build warnings if EFI_STUB and
EFI_LOADER are both configured.

Could you, please, explain under which compiler settings size_t and
unsigned long have a different number of bits?

Obviously we have the EFI API exposed by U-Boot which has the bitness of
U-Boot.

If you want to consume an EFI API of another bitness I suggest that you
create separate interface definitions.

Best regards

U-Boot itself as the EFI pyaload is 32-bit. The EFI stub is 64-bit as
it has to be loaded from the 64-bit EFI BIOS. Note in case you
misunderstand: the generated u-boot-payload.efi is 64-bit stub codes
(for 64-bit EFI BIOS) or 32-bit stub codes (for 32-bit EFI BIOS) plus
32-bit U-Boot payload. The payload is always 32-bit as of today as
U-Boot on x86 is mainly on 32-bit. 64-bit support, as you see from
README.x86, is far from mature yet.

I don't see any build warnings when building efi-x86_payload32 or
efi-x86_payload64. I see both EFI_STUB and EFI_LOADER are enabled with
these two targets. AFAIK, only x86 supports EFI_STUB currently. I
don't know where you see a lot of build warnings.

As mentioned above, the EFI stub codes (efi_stub.c) are built for
64-bit, which expects 'efi_uintn_t' to be 64-bit. However, it is
defined as size_t, which in U-Boot 32, will be 'unsigned int' (see
arch/x86/include/asm/posix_types.h) - the bug here!

Currently you cannot build with EFI_LOADER=Y on 32 bit with a 64bit
stub. See lib/efi_loader/Kconfig. The problem is with the build scripts
for the stub using the same CONFIG variables as those used for other
binaries.

To emulate what would happen with your change once we can build with
EFI_LOADER=y and 64bit stub I made the following change:

--- a/include/efi_api.h
+++ b/include/efi_api.h
@@ -28,7 +28,8 @@ enum efi_timer_delay {
        EFI_TIMER_RELATIVE = 2
 };

-#define efi_uintn_t size_t
+#define efi_uintn_t unsigned long
 typedef uint16_t *efi_string_t;

And then I tried to build:
make qemu-x86_defconfig
make -j6

It gives me a bunch of errors like below.

So, please, do not change the type of efi_uintn_t.

What is needed is using different types in lib/efi_loader/ and in the
calls to the primary firmware if they have different bitness.

Heinrich

I am not sure why do you unconditionally change efi_uintn_t? My patch has

#if defined(CONFIG_EFI_STUB_64BIT) && defined(EFI_STUB)

to guard the change.

I know. But my patch does not produce any build warnings on
efi-x86_payload32_defconfig and efi-x86_payload64_defconfig, on
u-boot-x86/efi-working branch.

With your proposed changes to efi.h in [1], do you think we should
also fix this by:

#ifdef __x86_64__
#define efi_uintn_t unsigned long
#else
#define efi_uintn_t size_t

Currently it is not possible to enable CONFIG_EFI_STUB_64BIT and
EFI_LOADER on 32bit U-Boot. Once we have removed this restriction in the
build system your patch together with EFI_LOADER=y and
CONFIG_EFI_STUB_64BIT=y will provoke all those errors. This is why I
NAKed you patch.

I did the following to try to reproduce what you saw:

But doing:

Failed with a different error (no compiler warning were seen)

My mistake was to confuse EFI_STUB and CONFIG_EFI_STUB.

EFI_STUB is only defined in lib/efi/Makefile when compiling
lib/efi/efi.c and
lib/efi/efi_stub.c

These two files are compiled with -m64 when CONFIG_EFI_STUB_64BIT=y.

The problem should be fixed in
arch/x86/include/asm/posix_types.h

That way anybody using size_t in lib/efi/ can be sure that size_t has
the same size as a pointer, cf:

lib/efi/efi_stub.c:92:
void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t size)
lib/efi/efi_stub.c:104:
void *memset(void *inptr, int ch, size_t size)

This is due to using variable EFI_LDS, EFI_CRT0, and EFI_RELOC both when
building the stub (64bit) and helloworld (32bit) (see arch/x86/config.mk).

To resolve the issue we would have to use different values for the stub
and the other EFI payloads (helloworld and efi_selftest_miniapp_*).

Can't we just change the definition in
arch/x86/include/asm/posix_types.h to adhere to __x86_64__ instead? Then
the typedef would just simply always go to size_t.
