2 * EFI call stub for IA32.
4 * This stub allows us to make EFI calls in physical mode with interrupts
5 * turned off. Note that this implementation is different from the one in
6 * arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_stub_32.S because we're _already_ in physical
10 #include <linux/linkage.h>
11 #include <asm/page_types.h>
14 * efi_call_phys(void *, ...) is a function with variable parameters.
15 * All the callers of this function assure that all the parameters are 4-bytes.
19 * In gcc calling convention, EBX, ESP, EBP, ESI and EDI are all callee save.
20 * So we'd better save all of them at the beginning of this function and restore
21 * at the end no matter how many we use, because we can not assure EFI runtime
22 * service functions will comply with gcc calling convention, too.
28 * 0. The function can only be called in Linux kernel. So CS has been
29 * set to 0x0010, DS and SS have been set to 0x0018. In EFI, I found
30 * the values of these registers are the same. And, the corresponding
31 * GDT entries are identical. So I will do nothing about segment reg
32 * and GDT, but change GDT base register in prelog and epilog.
36 * 1. Because we haven't been relocated by this point we need to
37 * use relative addressing.
44 * 2. Now on the top of stack is the return
45 * address in the caller of efi_call_phys(), then parameter 1,
46 * parameter 2, ..., param n. To make things easy, we save the return
47 * address of efi_call_phys in a global variable.
50 movl %ecx, saved_return_addr(%edx)
51 /* get the function pointer into ECX*/
53 movl %ecx, efi_rt_function_ptr(%edx)
56 * 3. Call the physical function.
61 * 4. Balance the stack. And because EAX contain the return value,
62 * we'd better not clobber it. We need to calculate our address
63 * again because %ecx and %edx are not preserved across EFI function
70 movl efi_rt_function_ptr(%edx), %ecx
74 * 10. Push the saved return address onto the stack and return.
