AMD IMC AGESA: Access the data in stack by correct length
The bug is hard to find. We were adding the feature of fan control. We met some strange things which could not be explained. Like, sometimes adding printk let the error disappear. Then we traced the code by hardware debug tool (HDT). It turned out the data in stack was overwritten. The values of AccessWidthxx are { AccessWidth8 = 1, AccessWidth16, AccessWidth32,} For the case of AccessWidth8, we only need to access the index/data once. But ReadECmsg and WriteECmsg did the loop twice, 1 more time than they are supposed to do. The data in stack next to "Value" would be overwritten. For all the cases, the code should be OpFlag = OpFlag & 0x7f; switch (OpFlag) { case 1: /* AccessWidth8 */ OpFlag = 0;break; case 2: /* AccessWidth16 */ OpFlag = 1;break; case 3: /* AccessWidth32 */ OpFlag = 3;break; case 4: /* AccessWidth64 */ OpFlag = 7;break; default: error; } Actually, the caller only takes AccessWidth8 as the parameter. We can ignore other cases for now. That is an AGESA bug. AMD's AGESA team own this code. They have given the response that they are going to update this in next release. I presume let them decide the proper way to fix that. Before that, I change the code as little as possible to make it run without crash.
