What's Changed

  • Add CPU\_INFORMATION\_HEADER struct to STM\_HEADER @kenlautner (#1317)
    Change Details
      ## Description

    Created a new struct called CPU_INFORMATION_HEADER that is now being included in the STM_HEADER. It siphons space from the MSEG_HEADER which has a significant amount of padding. Currently CPU_INFORMATION_HEADER only contains a UINT32 representing the number of CPUs on the system but extra space is reserved for future fields.

    Note that this reduces the MSEG_HEADER size to 1KB and the CPU_INFORMATION_HEADER to 1KB. This is to maintain the 4KB size requirement for the STM_HEADER.

  • [CHERRY-PICK] VS22 linker changes from edk2 [Rebase \& FF] @makubacki (#1284)
    Change Details
      ## Description

    Cherry picks a commit upstreamed (reworked from Mu original) and a similar commit made upstream to eliminate Mu delta.


    [NEW] MdeModulePkg/HiiDatabaseDxe: Avoid struct assignment

    Struct assignments are not permitted in EDK2, as they may be converted
    by the compiler into calls to the 'memcpy' intrinsic, which is not
    guaranteed to be available in EDK2.

    So replace the assignment with a call to CopyMem (), and -while at it-
    replace the loop with a single CopyMem () call, as the loop operates on
    items that are contiguous in memory.


    [NON-FUNCTIONAL REFACTOR] MdeModulePkg/HiiDatabaseDxe: Prevent linker error

    Prevent an issue where memcpy() instrinsic is being used after
    recent MSVC linker update in windows-2022 VM image from 14.31.31103
    to 14.32.31326.


    [DROP MU_CHANGE TAGS] MdePkg/BaseMemoryLib: Prevent potential VS2022 linker failure

    After updating between various VS2022 versions such as 17.4 to
    17.5, , linker failures began to appear in several modules because
    memset is an unresolved symbol.

    The following functions in BaseMemoryLib/MemLibGeneric.c have their
    loop pattern replaced with the memset intrinsic function:

    • InternalMemSetMem16()
    • InternalMemSetMem32()
    • InternalMemSetMem64()

    An example of an error related to InternalMemSetMem64() in
    VariableSmmRuntimeDxe is shown below:

    INFO - BaseMemoryLib.lib(MemLibGeneric.obj) : error LNK2001:
             unresolved external symbol memset
    INFO - <...>\VariableSmmRuntimeDxe.dll : fatal error LNK1120:
             1 unresolved externals
    

    This was reproduced in several environments including:

    Note: This image (with 17.4) does not have this issue
    https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/win22/20230219.1/images/win/Windows2022-Readme.md

    This change updates the type cast for the destination buffer to be
    a pointer to volatile data to prevent this optimization with a
    relatively minimum delta to prior implementation.

  • MdeModulePkg/SmmCorePerformanceLib: Remove offset from comm buffer dest space @makubacki (#1285)
    Change Details
      ## Description

    A check validates that if perf records are being written to the comm buffer (not a buffer pointed to from the comm buffer) that enough space is available after the SMM_BOOT_RECORD_COMMUNICATE header in the comm buffer for the boot record size requested. That check currently removes the offset from the boot record size but that is not needed since the offset is applied to the source buffer and the record size is what is copied into the destination (comm buffer).

    Change Details
      # Description

    (Cherry-pick from edk2. Commits should be applied as-is and not merged into a single commit.)

    The spec-based header definitions for UFS drivers are currently in two identical private header files. This change set moves the definitions into the IndustryStandard folder with two separate files tracking relevant UFS spec documents. This will allow for future spec updates to be made in a single location, and allows for other drivers to access these definitions.
    Additionally, this set updates Ufs.h to the UFS 4.0 spec.

  • BaseTools/OverrideValidation: Sort files prior to hashing. @apop5 (#1145)
    Change Details
      ## Description

    Override validation allows hashing a directory through the -t parameter.

    When generating an override validation hash for a directory, it was found that the order of the files can be different when running under linux vs under windows.

    To address this discrepancy, a new module hash has been crated ModuleHash2Cal, which sorts the files prior to hashing.

    Since existing projects use hashes based on ModuleHashCal, when performing override validation checking, check against the original ModuleHashCal and the ModuleHash2Cal prior to generating an override validation failure.

    Generating a new hash value will only use the ModuleHash2Cal.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • [CHERRY-PICK] StandaloneMmPkg: Call PeCoffLoaderUnloadImage When Unloading Image @os-d (#1252)
    Change Details
      ## Description

    Today, StandaloneMmCore calls PeCoffLoaderRelocateImage() when loading images, which calls PeCoffLoaderRelocateImageExtraAction(). On AARCH64, this sets the image memory protections accordingly, RO + E on code sections, RW + NX on data sections.

    However, if an image fails to start (i.e. its entry point returns a failure) StandaloneMmCore does not call the corresponding PeCoffLoaderUnloadImage, which calls PeCoffLoaderUnloadImageExtraAction, which on AARCH64 undoes the memory protections on the image, setting the whole memory region back to RW + NX. The core then frees this memory and the next allocation attempts to use it, which results in a data abort if a read only memory region is attempted to be written to. Theoretically, other instances of the PeCoffExtraActionLib could take other actions and so regardless of architecture, the contract with the PeCoffLoader should be maintained.

    This patch calls PeCoffLoaderUnloadImage when an image's entry point returns a failure, before freeing the image memory. This meets the contract and follows the DXE core behavior.
