When the flash is not owned by the non-secure world, accessing the EFI
variables is straight-forward and done via EFI Runtime Variable
Services. In this case, critical variables for system integrity and
security are normally stored in the dedicated secure storage and can
only be manipulated directly from the secure world.
Usually, small embedded devices don't have the special dedicated secure
storage. The eMMC device with an RPMB partition is becoming more common,
and we can use this RPMB partition to store the EFI Variables.
The eMMC device is typically owned by the non-secure world (Linux in our
case). There is an existing solution utilizing eMMC RPMB partition for
EFI Variables, it is implemented by interacting with TEE (OP-TEE in this
case), StandaloneMM (as EFI Variable Service Pseudo TA), eMMC driver and
tee-supplicant. The last piece is the tee-based variable access driver
to interact with TEE and StandaloneMM.
So let's add the kernel functions needed.
This feature is implemented as a kernel module. StMM PTA has
TA_FLAG_DEVICE_ENUM_SUPP flag when registered to OP-TEE so that this
tee_stmm_efi module is probed after tee-supplicant starts, since
"SetVariable" EFI Runtime Variable Service requires to interact with
tee-supplicant.

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance: Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, requiring memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific for the Virtual
Machine platform.
Accepting memory is costly and it makes VMM allocate memory for the
accepted guest physical address range. It's better to postpone memory
acceptance until memory is needed. It lowers boot time and reduces
memory overhead.
The kernel needs to know what memory has been accepted. Firmware
communicates this information via memory map: a new memory type --
EFI_UNACCEPTED_MEMORY -- indicates such memory.
Range-based tracking works fine for firmware, but it gets bulky for
the kernel: e820 (or whatever the arch uses) has to be modified on every
page acceptance. It leads to table fragmentation and there's a limited
number of entries in the e820 table.
Another option is to mark such memory as usable in e820 and track if the
range has been accepted in a bitmap. One bit in the bitmap represents a
naturally aligned power-2-sized region of address space -- unit.
For x86, unit size is 2MiB: 4k of the bitmap is enough to track 64GiB or
physical address space.
In the worst-case scenario -- a huge hole in the middle of the
address space -- It needs 256MiB to handle 4PiB of the address
space.
Any unaccepted memory that is not aligned to unit_size gets accepted
upfront.
The bitmap is allocated and constructed in the EFI stub and passed down
to the kernel via EFI configuration table. allocate_e820() allocates the
bitmap if unaccepted memory is present, according to the size of
unaccepted region.

The EFI runtime map code is only wired up on x86, which is the only
architecture that has a need for it in its implementation of kexec.
So let's move this code under arch/x86 and drop all references to it
from generic code. To ensure that the efi_runtime_map_init() is invoked
at the appropriate time use a 'sync' subsys_initcall() that will be
called right after the EFI initcall made from generic code where the

The initrd= command line loader can be useful for development, but it
was limited to loading files from the same file system as the loaded
kernel (and it didn't work on x86 mixed mode).
As both issues have been fixed, and the initrd= can now be used with
files residing on any simple file system exposed by the EFI firmware,
let's permit it to be enabled on RISC-V and LoongArch, which did not
support it up to this point.
Note that LoadFile2 remains the preferred option, as it is much simpler
to use and implement, but generic loaders (including the UEFI shell) may
not implement this so there, initrd= can now be used as well (if enabled
in the build)

The zboot decompressor series introduced a feature to sign the PE/COFF
kernel image for secure boot as part of the kernel build. This was
necessary because there are actually two images that need to be signed:
the kernel with the EFI stub attached, and the decompressor application.
This is a bit of a burden, because it means that the images must be
signed on the the same system that performs the build, and this is not
realistic for distros.
During the next cycle, we will introduce changes to the zboot code so
that the inner image no longer needs to be signed. This means that the
outer PE/COFF image can be handled as usual, and be signed later in the
release process.
Let's remove the associated Kconfig options now so that they don't end
up in a LTS release while already being deprecated.

Implement a minimal EFI app that decompresses the real kernel image and
launches it using the firmware's LoadImage and StartImage boot services.
This removes the need for any arch-specific hacks.
Note that on systems that have UEFI secure boot policies enabled,
LoadImage/StartImage require images to be signed, or their hashes known
a priori, in order to be permitted to boot.
There are various possible strategies to work around this requirement,
but they all rely either on overriding internal PI/DXE protocols (which
are not part of the EFI spec) or omitting the firmware provided
LoadImage() and StartImage() boot services, which is also undesirable,
given that they encapsulate platform specific policies related to secure
boot and measured boot, but also related to memory permissions (whether
or not and which types of heap allocations have both write and execute
permissions.)
The only generic and truly portable way around this is to simply sign
both the inner and the outer image with the same key/cert pair, so this
is what is implemented here.

This patch adds efistub booting support, which is the standard UEFI boot
protocol for LoongArch to use.
We use generic efistub, which means we can pass boot information (i.e.,
system table, memory map, kernel command line, initrd) via a light FDT
and drop a lot of non-standard code.
We use a flat mapping to map the efi runtime in the kernel's address
space. In efi, VA = PA; in kernel, VA = PA + PAGE_OFFSET. As a result,
flat mapping is not identity mapping, SetVirtualAddressMap() is still
needed for the efi runtime.

Commit 5d9db883761a ("efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystem")
dated Oct 5, 2012, introduced a new efivarfs pseudo-filesystem to
replace the efivars sysfs interface that was used up to that point to
expose EFI variables to user space.
The main problem with the sysfs interface was that it only supported up
to 1024 bytes of payload per file, whereas the underlying variables
themselves are only bounded by a platform specific per-variable and
global limit that is typically much higher than 1024 bytes.
The deprecated sysfs interface is only enabled on x86 and Itanium, other
EFI enabled architectures only support the efivarfs pseudo-filesystem.
So let's finally rip off the band aid, and drop the old interface
entirely. This will make it easier to refactor and clean up the
underlying infrastructure that is shared between efivars, efivarfs and
efi-pstore, and is long overdue for a makeover.

Avoid the efivars layer and simply call the newly introduced EFI
varstore helpers instead. This simplifies the code substantially, and
also allows us to remove some hacks in the shared efivars layer that
were added for efi-pstore specifically.
In order to be able to delete the EFI variable associated with a record,
store the UTF-16 name of the variable in the pstore record's priv field.
That way, we don't have to make guesses regarding which variable the
record may have been loaded from.

Confidential computing (coco) hardware such as AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted
Virtualization) allows a guest owner to inject secrets into the VMs
memory without the host/hypervisor being able to read them.
Firmware support for secret injection is available in OVMF, which
reserves a memory area for secret injection and includes a pointer to it
the in EFI config table entry LINUX_EFI_COCO_SECRET_TABLE_GUID.
If EFI exposes such a table entry, uefi_init() will keep a pointer to
the EFI config table entry in efi.coco_secret, so it can be used later
by the kernel (specifically drivers/virt/coco/efi_secret). It will also
appear in the kernel log as "CocoSecret=ADDRESS"; for example:
[ 0.000000] efi: EFI v2.70 by EDK II
[ 0.000000] efi: CocoSecret=0x7f22e680 SMBIOS=0x7f541000 ACPI=0x7f77e000 ACPI 2.0=0x7f77e014 MEMATTR=0x7ea0c018

Commit d9f283ae71af ("efi: Disable runtime services on RT") disabled EFI
runtime services by default when the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT option is enabled.
The rationale for that commit is that some EFI calls could take too much
time, leading to large latencies which is an issue for Real-Time kernels.
But a side effect of that change was that now is not possible anymore to
enable the EFI runtime services by default when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is set,
without passing an efi=runtime command line parameter to the kernel.
Instead, let's add a new EFI_DISABLE_RUNTIME boolean Kconfig option, that
would be set to n by default but to y if CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is enabled.
That way, the current behaviour is preserved but gives users a mechanism
to enable the EFI runtimes services in their kernels if that is required.
For example, if the firmware could guarantee bounded time for EFI calls.
Also, having a separate boolean config could allow users to disable the
EFI runtime services by default even when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is not set.

EFI capsule loading is a feature that was introduced into EFI long after
its initial introduction on Itanium, and it is highly unlikely that IA64
systems are receiving firmware updates in the first place, let alone
using EFI capsules.
So let's disable capsule support altogether on IA64. This fixes a build
error on IA64 due to a recent change that added an unconditional
include of asm/efi.h, which IA64 does not provide.
While at it, tweak the make rules a bit so that the EFI capsule
component that is always builtin (even if the EFI capsule loader itself
is built as a module) is omitted for all architectures if the module is
not enabled in the build.

Just like with PCI options ROMs, which we save in the setup_efi_pci*
functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/eboot.c, the EFI code / ROM itself
sometimes may contain data which is useful/necessary for peripheral drivers
to have access to.
Specifically the EFI code may contain an embedded copy of firmware which
needs to be (re)loaded into the peripheral. Normally such firmware would be
part of linux-firmware, but in some cases this is not feasible, for 2
reasons:
1) The firmware is customized for a specific use-case of the chipset / use
with a specific hardware model, so we cannot have a single firmware file
for the chipset. E.g. touchscreen controller firmwares are compiled
specifically for the hardware model they are used with, as they are
calibrated for a specific model digitizer.
2) Despite repeated attempts we have failed to get permission to
redistribute the firmware. This is especially a problem with customized
firmwares, these get created by the chip vendor for a specific ODM and the
copyright may partially belong with the ODM, so the chip vendor cannot
give a blanket permission to distribute these.
This commit adds support for finding peripheral firmware embedded in the
EFI code and makes the found firmware available through the new
efi_get_embedded_fw() function.
Support for loading these firmwares through the standard firmware loading
mechanism is added in a follow-up commit in this patch-series.
Note we check the EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE for embedded firmware near the end
of start_kernel(), just before calling rest_init(), this is on purpose
because the typical EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE memory-segment is too large for
early_memremap(), so the check must be done after mm_init(). This relies
on EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE not being free-ed until efi_free_boot_services()
is called, which means that this will only work on x86 for now.

Add an option to disable the busmaster bit in the control register on
all PCI bridges before calling ExitBootServices() and passing control
to the runtime kernel. System firmware may configure the IOMMU to prevent
malicious PCI devices from being able to attack the OS via DMA. However,
since firmware can't guarantee that the OS is IOMMU-aware, it will tear
down IOMMU configuration when ExitBootServices() is called. This leaves
a window between where a hostile device could still cause damage before
Linux configures the IOMMU again.
If CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA is enabled or "efi=disable_early_pci_dma"
is passed on the command line, the EFI stub will clear the busmaster bit
on all PCI bridges before ExitBootServices() is called. This will
prevent any malicious PCI devices from being able to perform DMA until
the kernel reenables busmastering after configuring the IOMMU.
This option may cause failures with some poorly behaved hardware and
should not be enabled without testing. The kernel commandline options
"efi=disable_early_pci_dma" or "efi=no_disable_early_pci_dma" may be
used to override the default. Note that PCI devices downstream from PCI
bridges are disconnected from their drivers first, using the UEFI
driver model API, so that DMA can be disabled safely at the bridge
level.

UEFI 2.8 defines an EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute bit to augment the
interpretation of the EFI Memory Types as "reserved for a specific
purpose".
The proposed Linux behavior for specific purpose memory is that it is
reserved for direct-access (device-dax) by default and not available for
any kernel usage, not even as an OOM fallback. Later, through udev
scripts or another init mechanism, these device-dax claimed ranges can
be reconfigured and hot-added to the available System-RAM with a unique
node identifier. This device-dax management scheme implements "soft" in
the "soft reserved" designation by allowing some or all of the
reservation to be recovered as typical memory. This policy can be
disabled at compile-time with CONFIG_EFI_SOFT_RESERVE=n, or runtime with
efi=nosoftreserve.
As for this patch, define the common helpers to determine if the
EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute should be honored. The determination needs to be
made early to prevent the kernel from being loaded into soft-reserved
memory, or otherwise allowing early allocations to land there. Follow-on
changes are needed per architecture to leverage these helpers in their
respective mem-init paths.

System firmware advertises the address of the 'Runtime
Configuration Interface table version 2 (RCI2)' via
an EFI Configuration Table entry. This code retrieves the RCI2
table from the address and exports it to sysfs as a binary
attribute 'rci2' under /sys/firmware/efi/tables directory.
The approach adopted is similar to the attribute 'DMI' under
/sys/firmware/dmi/tables.
RCI2 table contains BIOS HII in XML format and is used to populate
BIOS setup page in Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator tool.
The BIOS setup page contains BIOS tokens which can be configured.

Move the x86 EFI earlyprintk implementation to a shared location under
drivers/firmware and tweak it slightly so we can expose it as an earlycon
implementation (which is generic) rather than earlyprintk (which is only
implemented for a few architectures)
This also involves switching to write-combine mappings by default (which
is required on ARM since device mappings lack memory semantics, and so
memcpy/memset may not be used on them), and adding support for shared
memory framebuffers on cache coherent non-x86 systems (which do not
tolerate mismatched attributes).
Note that 32-bit ARM does not populate its struct screen_info early
enough for earlycon=efifb to work, so it is disabled there.

There are various ways a platform can provide a device tree binary
to the kernel, with different levels of sophistication:
- ideally, the UEFI firmware, which is tightly coupled with the
platform, provides a device tree image directly as a UEFI
configuration table, and typically permits the contents to be
manipulated either via menu options or via UEFI environment
variables that specify a replacement image,
- GRUB for ARM has a 'devicetree' directive which allows a device
tree image to be loaded from any location accessible to GRUB, and
supersede the one provided by the firmware,
- the EFI stub implements a dtb= command line option that allows a
device tree image to be loaded from a file residing in the same
file system as the one the kernel image was loaded from.
The dtb= command line option was never intended to be more than a
development feature, to allow the other options to be implemented
in parallel. So let's make it an opt-in feature that is disabled
by default, but can be re-enabled at will.
Note that we already disable the dtb= command line option when we
detect that we are running with UEFI Secure Boot enabled.

"A pretty big batch of Kconfig updates.
I have to mention the lexer and parser of Kconfig are now built from
real .l and .y sources. So, flex and bison are the requirement for
building the kernel. Both of them (unlike gperf) have been stable for
a long time. This change has been tested several weeks in linux-next,
and I did not receive any problem report about this.
Summary:
- add checks for mistakes, like the choice default is not in choice,
help is doubled
- document data structure and complex code
- fix various memory leaks
- change Makefile to build lexer and parser instead of using
pre-generated C files
- drop 'boolean' keyword, which is equivalent to 'bool'
- use default 'yy' prefix and remove unneeded Make variables

Some distributions have turned on the reset attack mitigation feature,
which is designed to force the platform to clear the contents of RAM if
the machine is shut down uncleanly. However, in order for the platform
to be able to determine whether the shutdown was clean or not, userspace
has to be configured to clear the MemoryOverwriteRequest flag on
shutdown - otherwise the firmware will end up clearing RAM on every
reboot, which is unnecessarily time consuming. Add some additional
clarity to the kconfig text to reduce the risk of systems being
configured this way.

If a machine is reset while secrets are present in RAM, it may be
possible for code executed after the reboot to extract those secrets
from untouched memory. The Trusted Computing Group specified a mechanism
for requesting that the firmware clear all RAM on reset before booting
another OS. This is done by setting the MemoryOverwriteRequestControl
variable at startup. If userspace can ensure that all secrets are
removed as part of a controlled shutdown, it can reset this variable to
0 before triggering a hardware reboot.

The firmware for Quark X102x prepends a security header to the capsule
which is needed to support the mandatory secure boot on this processor.
The header can be detected by checking for the "_CSH" signature and -
to avoid any GUID conflict - validating its size field to contain the
expected value. Then we need to look for the EFI header right after the
security header and pass the real header to __efi_capsule_setup_info.
To be minimal invasive and maximal safe, the quirk version of
efi_capsule_setup_info() is only effective on Quark processors.

Apple's EFI drivers supply device properties which are needed to support
Macs optimally. They contain vital information which cannot be obtained
any other way (e.g. Thunderbolt Device ROM). They're also used to convey
the current device state so that OS drivers can pick up where EFI
drivers left (e.g. GPU mode setting).
There's an EFI driver dubbed "AAPL,PathProperties" which implements a
per-device key/value store. Other EFI drivers populate it using a custom
protocol. The macOS bootloader /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi
retrieves the properties with the same protocol. The kernel extension
AppleACPIPlatform.kext subsequently merges them into the I/O Kit
registry (see ioreg(8)) where they can be queried by other kernel
extensions and user space.
This commit extends the efistub to retrieve the device properties before
ExitBootServices is called. It assigns them to devices in an fs_initcall
so that they can be queried with the API in <linux/property.h>.
Note that the device properties will only be available if the kernel is
booted with the efistub. Distros should adjust their installers to
always use the efistub on Macs. grub with the "linux" directive will not
work unless the functionality of this commit is duplicated in grub.
(The "linuxefi" directive should work but is not included upstream as of
this writing.)
The custom protocol has GUID 91BD12FE-F6C3-44FB-A5B7-5122AB303AE0 and
looks like this:
typedef struct {
unsigned long version; /* 0x10000 */
efi_status_t (*get) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name,
OUT void *buffer,
IN OUT u32 *buffer_len);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_NOT_FOUND, EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL */
efi_status_t (*set) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name,
IN void *property_value,
IN u32 property_value_len);
/* allocates copies of property name and value */
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES */
efi_status_t (*del) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
IN struct efi_dev_path *device,
IN efi_char16_t *property_name);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_NOT_FOUND */
efi_status_t (*get_all) (
IN struct apple_properties_protocol *this,
OUT void *buffer,
IN OUT u32 *buffer_len);
/* EFI_SUCCESS, EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL */
} apple_properties_protocol;
Thanks to Pedro Vilaça for this blog post which was helpful in reverse
engineering Apple's EFI drivers and bootloader:
https://reverse.put.as/2016/06/25/apple-efi-firmware-passwords-and-the-scbo-myth/
If someone at Apple is reading this, please note there's a memory leak
in your implementation of the del() function as the property struct is
freed but the name and value allocations are not.
Neither the macOS bootloader nor Apple's EFI drivers check the protocol
version, but we do to avoid breakage if it's ever changed. It's been the
same since at least OS X 10.6 (2009).
The get_all() function conveniently fills a buffer with all properties
in marshalled form which can be passed to the kernel as a setup_data
payload. The number of device properties is dynamic and can change
between a first invocation of get_all() (to determine the buffer size)
and a second invocation (to retrieve the actual buffer), hence the
peculiar loop which does not finish until the buffer size settles.
The macOS bootloader does the same.
The setup_data payload is later on unmarshalled in an fs_initcall. The
idea is that most buses instantiate devices in "subsys" initcall level
and drivers are usually bound to these devices in "device" initcall
level, so we assign the properties in-between, i.e. in "fs" initcall
level.
This assumes that devices to which properties pertain are instantiated
from a "subsys" initcall or earlier. That should always be the case
since on macOS, AppleACPIPlatformExpert::matchEFIDevicePath() only
supports ACPI and PCI nodes and we've fully scanned those buses during
"subsys" initcall level.
The second assumption is that properties are only needed from a "device"
initcall or later. Seems reasonable to me, but should this ever not work
out, an alternative approach would be to store the property sets e.g. in
a btree early during boot. Then whenever device_add() is called, an EFI
Device Path would have to be constructed for the newly added device,
and looked up in the btree. That way, the property set could be assigned
to the device immediately on instantiation. And this would also work for
devices instantiated in a deferred fashion. It seems like this approach
would be more complicated and require more code. That doesn't seem
justified without a specific use case.
For comparison, the strategy on macOS is to assign properties to objects
in the ACPI namespace (AppleACPIPlatformExpert::mergeEFIProperties()).
That approach is definitely wrong as it fails for devices not present in
the namespace: The NHI EFI driver supplies properties for attached
Thunderbolt devices, yet on Macs with Thunderbolt 1 only one device
level behind the host controller is described in the namespace.
Consequently macOS cannot assign properties for chained devices. With
Thunderbolt 2 they started to describe three device levels behind host
controllers in the namespace but this grossly inflates the SSDT and
still fails if the user daisy-chained more than three devices.
We copy the property names and values from the setup_data payload to
swappable virtual memory and afterwards make the payload available to
the page allocator. This is just for the sake of good housekeeping, it
wouldn't occupy a meaningful amount of physical memory (4444 bytes on my
machine). Only the payload is freed, not the setup_data header since
otherwise we'd break the list linkage and we cannot safely update the
predecessor's ->next link because there's no locking for the list.
The payload is currently not passed on to kexec'ed kernels, same for PCI
ROMs retrieved by setup_efi_pci(). This can be added later if there is
demand by amending setup_efi_state(). The payload can then no longer be
made available to the page allocator of course.

We're about to extended the efistub to retrieve device properties from
EFI on Apple Macs. The properties use EFI Device Paths to indicate the
device they belong to. This commit adds a parser which, given an EFI
Device Path, locates the corresponding struct device and returns a
reference to it.
Initially only ACPI and PCI Device Path nodes are supported, these are
the only types needed for Apple device properties (the corresponding
macOS function AppleACPIPlatformExpert::matchEFIDevicePath() does not
support any others). Further node types can be added with little to
moderate effort.
Apple device properties is currently the only use case of this parser,
but Peter Jones intends to use it to match up devices with the
ConInDev/ConOutDev/ErrOutDev variables and add sysfs attributes to these
devices to say the hardware supports using them as console. Thus,
make this parser a separate component which can be selected with config
option EFI_DEV_PATH_PARSER. It can in principle be compiled as a module
if acpi_get_first_physical_node() and acpi_bus_type are exported (and
efi_get_device_by_path() itself is exported).
The dependency on CONFIG_ACPI is needed for acpi_match_device_ids().
It can be removed if an empty inline stub is added for that function.
