From 5039e316dde3fb71c79e95e97c5bca8e4724d8f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Young Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2013 18:02:21 +0800 Subject: x86: Export x86 boot_params to sysfs kexec-tools use boot_params for getting the 1st kernel hardware_subarch, the kexec kernel EFI runtime support also needs to read the old efi_info from boot_params. Currently it exists in debugfs which is not a good place for such infomation. Per HPA, we should avoid "sploit debugfs". In this patch /sys/kernel/boot_params are exported, also the setup_data is exported as a subdirectory. kexec-tools is using debugfs for hardware_subarch for a long time now so we're not removing it yet. Structure is like below: /sys/kernel/boot_params |__ data /* boot_params in binary*/ |__ setup_data | |__ 0 /* the first setup_data node */ | | |__ data /* setup_data node 0 in binary*/ | | |__ type /* setup_data type of setup_data node 0, hex string */ [snip] |__ version /* boot protocal version (in hex, "0x" prefixed)*/ Signed-off-by: Dave Young Acked-by: Borislav Petkov Tested-by: Toshi Kani Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming --- arch/x86/kernel/Makefile | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'arch/x86/kernel/Makefile') diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/Makefile b/arch/x86/kernel/Makefile index 9b0a34e..510cca5 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/Makefile +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/Makefile @@ -29,6 +29,7 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += sys_x86_64.o x8664_ksyms_64.o obj-y += syscall_$(BITS).o obj-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += vsyscall_64.o obj-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += vsyscall_emu_64.o +obj-$(CONFIG_SYSFS) += ksysfs.o obj-y += bootflag.o e820.o obj-y += pci-dma.o quirks.o topology.o kdebugfs.o obj-y += alternative.o i8253.o pci-nommu.o hw_breakpoint.o -- cgit v1.1
