OK, I've applied this patch series (excluding PATCH 10) to the 'arm/common' branch in the EFI repository at, git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi.git At the request of Grant, the patches series from both Roy and Leif are available in a clean branch with a linear history at 'efi-arm', which is based on v3.11. Grant, feel free to pull that branch into wherever it is required. If this layout doesn't work for you guys then just shout and we can come up with a scheme that does. I'm going to send a pull request for the 'next' branch to the tip folks, so that these patches can get some testing via linux-next. -- Matt Fleming, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

[PATCH V5 00/18] ARM EFI stub common code
This patch is the common/x86 portion of the ARM EFI stub patchset broken out. These changes support the addition of EFI stub support for the ARM and ARM64 architectures. The common code that is now shared in efi-stub-helper.c is based on code in the x86 stub that has been generalized to support other architectures. (Previously these changes were submitted as part of the "EFI stub for ARM" patch series that included the common/x86 changes as well as the ARM changes.) Changes since V4: * Fix relocate_kernel() on x86/x86_64 by adding alignment parameter. The alignment was previously read from the setup_header structure passed to relocate_kernel was was missed when converting to passing all values as parameters. * Undo comment reformatting in efi-stub-helper.c * Fix incorrect comment in eboot.c (obsolete, based on older intermediate version. * Include HPA's patch for command line conversion. Changes since V3: * Made relocate_kernel() a shared function. * Made command line unicode to ASCII conversion ASCII a shared function * Updated efi_get_memory_map() to return descriptor version, and updated x86 stub to use it to retrieve final memory map. * removed min_address argument of efi_low_alloc(), as it is no longer used. * Squashed very tiny patch moving EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE into related patch. Changes since v2: * EFI bugfix "correct call to free_pages" that patch series depends on now in mainline * remove unnecessary zimage_size variable from relocate_kernel() * correct return types on EFI functions - should be efi_status_t, not int. Changes since V1: * Broke up changes to x86 and common code into more patches. 10 more patches in this series. H. Peter Anvin (1): Do proper conversion from UTF-16 to UTF-8 Roy Franz (17): EFI stub documentation updates Add proper definitions for some EFI function pointers. Move common EFI stub code from x86 arch code to common location Add system table pointer argument to shared functions. Rename memory allocation/free functions Enforce minimum alignment of 1 page on allocations. Move relocate_kernel() to shared file. Generalize relocate_kernel() for use by other architectures. Move unicode to ASCII conversion to shared function. Rename __get_map() to efi_get_memory_map() generalize efi_get_memory_map() use efi_get_memory_map() to get final map for x86 Allow efi_free() to be called with size of 0, and do nothing in that case. Generalize handle_ramdisks() and rename to handle_cmdline_files(). Renames in handle_cmdline_files() to complete generalization.
