From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2024 17:01:45 +0100 Subject: x86/efistub: Don't clear BSS twice in mixed mode Origin: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git/commit?id=3a2a828d252f4280e15e61e0666644f1fadcf6c4 [ Upstream commit df7ecce842b846a04d087ba85fdb79a90e26a1b0 ] Clearing BSS should only be done once, at the very beginning. efi_pe_entry() is the entrypoint from the firmware, which may not clear BSS and so it is done explicitly. However, efi_pe_entry() is also used as an entrypoint by the mixed mode startup code, in which case BSS will already have been cleared, and doing it again at this point will corrupt global variables holding the firmware's GDT/IDT and segment selectors. So make the memset() conditional on whether the EFI stub is running in native mode.
