From 5f35eb0e29ca26da82febe49d7698dbeb8882ea0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Young Date: Thu, 1 May 2014 21:15:48 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86/efi: earlyprintk=efi,keep fix earlyprintk=efi,keep will cause kernel hangs while freeing initmem like below: VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 254:2. devtmpfs: mounted Freeing unused kernel memory: 880K (ffffffff817d4000 - ffffffff818b0000) It is caused by efi earlyprintk use __init function which will be freed later. Such as early_efi_write is marked as __init, also it will use early_ioremap which is init function as well. To fix this issue, I added early initcall early_efi_map_fb which maps the whole efi fb for later use. OTOH, adding a wrapper function early_efi_map which calls early_ioremap before ioremap is available. With this patch applied efi boot ok with earlyprintk=efi,keep console=efi Signed-off-by: Dave Young Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming --- Reading git-format-patch failed
