2020-08-15cpu/x86/smm: Introduce SMM module loader version 2Rocky Phagura
Xeon-SP Skylake Scalable Processor can have 36 CPU threads (18 cores). Current coreboot SMM is unable to handle more than ~32 CPU threads. This patch introduces a version 2 of the SMM module loader which addresses this problem. Having two versions of the SMM module loader prevents any issues to current projects. Future Xeon-SP products will be using this version of the SMM loader. Subsequent patches will enable board specific functionality for Xeon-SP. The reason for moving to version 2 is the state save area begins to encroach upon the SMI handling code when more than 32 CPU threads are in the system. This can cause system hangs, reboots, etc. The second change is related to staggered entry points with simple near jumps. In the current loader, near jumps will not work because the CPU is jumping within the same code segment. In version 2, "far" address jumps are necessary therefore protected mode must be enabled first. The SMM layout and how the CPUs are staggered are documented in the code. By making the modifications above, this allows the smm module loader to expand easily as more CPU threads are added. TEST=build for Tiogapass platform under OCP mainboard. Enable the following in Kconfig. select CPU_INTEL_COMMON_SMM select SOC_INTEL_COMMON_BLOCK_SMM select SMM_TSEG select HAVE_SMI_HANDLER select ACPI_INTEL_HARDWARE_SLEEP_VALUES Debug console will show all 36 cores relocated. Further tested by generating SMI's to port 0xb2 using XDP/ITP HW debugger and ensured all cores entering and exiting SMM properly. In addition, booted to Linux 5.4 kernel and observed no issues during mp init.
