Commit Message

Starting with commit 867a6ac86dd8 ("efi: Add start-up library code"),
sparse constantly complains about truncated constant value in efi.h:

include/efi.h:176:35: warning: cast truncates bits from constant value (8000000000000000 becomes 0)

This can get quite noisy, preventing real issues to be noticed:

$ make defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'sandbox_defconfig'
$ make C=2 -j12 2>&1 | grep truncates | wc -l
441

After the patch is applied:
$ make C=2 -j12 2>&1 | grep truncates | wc -l
0
$ sparse --version
v0.5.2

Fixes: 867a6ac86dd8 ("efi: Add start-up library code")

Hello Eugeniu,

thanks for pointing out the problem.

We should not look at this single value only. Please eliminate the whole
enum and use #define for all values using the names and definitions
provided in the UEFI 2.7 spec (i.e. without the _SHIFT suffix).

#define EFI_MEMORY_UC            0x0000000000000001
#define EFI_MEMORY_WC            0x0000000000000002
#define EFI_MEMORY_WT            0x0000000000000004
#define EFI_MEMORY_WB            0x0000000000000008
#define EFI_MEMORY_UCE           0x0000000000000010
#define EFI_MEMORY_WP            0x0000000000001000
#define EFI_MEMORY_RP            0x0000000000002000
#define EFI_MEMORY_XP            0x0000000000004000
#define EFI_MEMORY_NV            0x0000000000008000
#define EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE 0x0000000000010000
#define EFI_MEMORY_RO            0x0000000000020000
#define EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME       0x8000000000000000

I think Simon used the _SHIFT values to save a few bytes in mem_attr[]
on 32bit architectures at the cost of more bytes in coding on 64bit
architectures.

In cmd/efi.c we could use the ilog2() macro to get the shift values. But
I would prefer to remove the shifting altogether and go for more
readable code.

Some values are missing in mem_attr[] (in cmd/efi.c). These should be added.

Best regards

Heinrich

Hi Heinrich,

Many thanks for quick and useful comments.
I've implemented your suggestions in v2. TIA for review.

Best regards,
Eugeniu.
