[PATCH 0/4] MdeModulePkg: add support for dispatching foreign arch PE/COFF images

[PATCH 0/4] MdeModulePkg: add support for dispatching foreign arch PE/COFF images

[Ard Biesheuvel]

Add the basic plumbing to DXE core, the PCI bus driver and the boot manager
to allow PE/COFF images to be dispatched that target an architecture that is
not native for the platform, but which is supported by an emulator.

One implementation of such an emulator can be found here:

Hi Ard,

There is no any comment for these protocol typedefs?

How about using 
EDKII_PECOFF_IMAGE_EMULATOR_IS_IMAGE_SUPPORTED/EDKII_PECOFF_IMAGE_EMULATOR_REGISTER_IMAGE/EDKII_PECOFF_IMAGE_EMULATOR_UNREGISTER_IMAGE 
as the function typedef names?

Add below line to align with other protocol header files?
extern EFI_GUID gEdkiiPeCoffImageEmulatorProtocolGuid;

Thanks,
Star

Yes, I can do that.

[PATCH 2/4] MdeModulePkg/DxeCore: invoke the emulator protocol for foreign images

[Ard Biesheuvel]

When encountering PE/COFF images that cannot be supported natively,
attempt to locate an instance of the PE/COFF image emulator protocol,
and if it supports the image, proceed with loading it and register it
with the emulator.

[PATCH 3/4] MdeModulePkg/PciBusDxe: invoke PE/COFF emulator for foreign option ROMs

[Ard Biesheuvel]

When enumerating option ROM images, take into account whether an emulator
exists that would allow dispatch of PE/COFF images built for foreign
architectures.

Hi Ard,

Could these be abstracted to a separate function like the PATCH 4/4 did?

[PATCH 4/4] MdeModulePkg/UefiBootManagerLib: allow foreign Driver#### images

[Ard Biesheuvel]

Allow PE/COFF images that must execute under emulation for Driver####
options, by relaxing the machine type check to include support for
machine types that is provided by the emulator.

  What's purpose to run the not native image in emulator? And, what should be done in the emulator driver, such as X64Emulator? Is the emulator responsible to translate the instruction between the different arch? I see X64Emualtor bases on qemu code.

The protocol does not support that at the moment, and it is doubtful
that it would work in practice: the X86-on-AARCH64 emulator works by
mapping the X86 PE/COFF code regions as non-executable, and trapping
the resulting exception to invoke the emulator. Running multiple
emulators side by side would require a considerable amount of
synchronization, so it only makes sense to consider that if there is a
compelling use case. And if there is, we could still abstract from
this at the top level (i.e., this protocol)

Re: [PATCH 0/4] MdeModulePkg: add support for dispatching foreign arch PE/COFF images

[Kinney, Michael D]

Ard,

I think there may be a lot of assumptions in this
proposal that are not documented.  

I do not see any description of how an image is 
started or how calls between native code and emulated
code are handled.

Also, are multiple emulated CPUs supported?  It looks
like there can only be one instance of this new protocol.

Can you please provide more detailed comments for the
functions in the new protocol and document the assumptions
and known limitation in the header?

>From one perspective, EBC is an emulated instruction set.
Would it make sense to have EBC be one of the emulated 
CPU types that can be plugged in?

Thanks,

Mike

It is the job of the implementation of the emulator to use the
information provided to it at registration time to ensure that calls
to its entry point are handled. One way could be to remap the code
region non-exec (which is what X86EmulatorPkg does) and hook the
exceptions that result when calling into the non-native code. Another
approach could be to do binary translation at load time, hook the
PE/COFF entry point in the header to point to a load stub etc etc.

These are all implementation details of the emulator, and so I am not
sure what exactly we need to document at the protocol level. Does the
above paragraph capture more or less what you mean?

Yes. I am not sure what the added value is of having multiple
emulators. Do you have anything in mind?

In any case, the singleton protocol could be implemented by a wrapper
driver that encapsulates this multiple dispatch functionality. I don't
think it makes sense to duplicate logic for that purpose in the
various places that I touch in this series, and so it shouldn't affect
the protocol prototypes.

Of course. But note that they are fairly simple prototypes that don't
impose any limitations by themselves, other than that you should call
RegisterImage() before attempting to invoke its entry point.

We could definitely abstract away the EBC handling in the DXE core to
be routed via this protocol, but that would make the changes more
intrusive. I could look into making those changes on top if there is
interest.

Re: [PATCH 0/4] MdeModulePkg: add support for dispatching foreign arch PE/COFF images

[Kinney, Michael D]

Ard,

I think there is a fundamental assumption that
the sizeof(UINTN) and size of pointers of 
the native CPU are the same as the emulated CPU.
If that is not the case, then I would like to see
more details.  Otherwise that is a significant
restriction that needs to be clearly documented.

Protocols that only allow a single instance need to
clearly document that assumption.

If we decide to treat EBC as an emulated CPU, then
we would want to support multiple instances of the
protocol.  The updates to the DXE Core are a bit 
confusing because it has separate handling of EBC
and emulated CPUs.  I think it would make the DXE
Core logic simpler and easier to understand if they
were combined.

I asked about the startup case because if we do EBC,
then we may need more services in the protocol because
of the thunk code between native and EBC code.  At the
time EBC was originally implemented, we did not have 
paging enabled and the EBC interpreter work without 
depending on a page fault handler.

The way the protocol is currently defined, I believe it
fundamentally assumes paging is enabled.  If paging is
not enabled, then the current protocol services are not
sufficient for any emulated CPU.  Do we want this to work
for paging disabled cases?  If not, another assumption
to clearly document.

Thanks,

Mike

There is no such assumption. The PE/COFF emulator protocol is an
abstract protocol that leaves it fully up to the implementation to
decide whether it can support images of machine type X and image type
Y.

The paging disabled case is interesting. Does the UEFI spec even
permit running in DXE with paging disabled?

In any case, I will send out a v2 as the basis for further discussion.

Ard,

Not knowing the size of UINTN or a pointer was very painful in terms of how EBC worked. The compiler was forced to generate code for sizeof vs. resolving it at compile time.

Paging is a function of the processor binding in the UEFI spec. It is not required for IA32. For X64 you have to have paging enable to enter long mode. On other processors you need to turn on paging to control the cache. So I guess the no paging is likely more of a i386 issue?

I'd suggest passing an EFI device path to IS_PECOFF_IMAGE_SUPPORTED. At some point it might be useful for the emulator to know what device is being emulated. 

For bonus points we could check IsPecoffImageSupported() prior to the native check. Never say never, some one may want to have emulator run on native images for debugging etc.

Oh, I'm sure - but my point is that whether architecture X can be
emulated on architecture Y and how is a limitation that affects some
implementations of the protocol, but at the abstract level that we
deal with in the core code, it is not a concern.

Michael spotted yesterday that RISC-V mandates paging disabled, which
is peculiar in itself. But again, whether a certain implementation of
the protocol relies on paging or not is an implementation detail.

I guess you mean for which device we are loading a driver that relies
on emulation? I guess that makes sense for option ROMs, which is the
primary use case, so yes, I can add that.

Peter brought this up as well - in some cases, you may want to sandbox
X86 drivers running on X86 by running them on an emulator. If you
think the overhead of performing this check for each image rather than
only for images that have already been found to be for a foreign
architecture is acceptables then I'm happy to change this. But we can
easily do that later as well.

Ard,

I vote for the flexibility. Given ImageType is passed into IsImageSupported() in the simple case it is just going to be checking a register (argument) against a constant.
