Windows 7 guest won't boot on qemu 2.10 (works on 2.9)

[Aleksei Kovura]

Qemu version: 2.10 stable.
Guest: Windows 7 SP1 x64, virtio drivers are already installed in the guest.
Command line:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
    -nodefaults \
    -nodefconfig \
    -machine type=q35,accel=kvm \
    -enable-kvm \
    -cpu host \
    -m 2048 \
    -vga virtio \
    -boot menu=on \
    -smbios file=/path/dmidecode_BIOS.bin \
    -acpitable file=/path/acpi_slic.bin \
    -bios /path/OVMF_CODE.fd \
    -net none \
    -drive if=virtio,media=disk,file=/media/win7.qcow2 \
    -device pcie-root-port \
    -device ich9-usb-ehci1 \
    -device ich9-usb-uhci1 \
    -device ich9-usb-uhci2 \
    -device ich9-usb-uhci3

Windows hangs at boot with waving flag screen (flag doesn't freeze, keeps waving indefinitely). Same command line boots fine with Qemu 2.9. I tried changing machine type to pc-q35-2.9 - same result.

Hi,
  There's a good chance this is the same as lp 1714331 - fixed by a newer OVMF.

[Aleksei Kovura (alex3kov)]

Compiled latest OVMF from git (ea21f1d), used it in "-bios" line - same result. What else can I try?

It's just the newer compiler is more fussy than the old one so when you
bisect you're not getting fixes for newer compilers. You can pass
flags ...

[Daniel Berrange (berrange)]

The newer GCC compilers are more fussy - just add '--disable-werror' when running 'configure' to make it ignore the warning

OVMF places the VBE Shim into the C segment, and points the 0x10 interrupt vector at it. See "OvmfPkg/QemuVideoDxe/VbeShim.c", function InstallVbeShim():

is there a way to fix vbeshim instead of reverting RO limitation that commit introduced?

[Laszlo Ersek (Red Hat) (lersek)]

I'd also like to mention that, when we originally worked on the VBE Shim, I tried to put it elsewhere. Obviously it has to be pointed-to by a real mode interrupt vector, which limits quite a bit where it can go at all; the point is that I tried to put it into low *RAM* (under 640KB).

It didn't work. Windows 7 would only accept the VBE Shim when it existed in the C segment, i.e. where a VGA option ROM would normally be located.

This is just to say that moving the VBE Shim out of the C segment (into real-mode addressible RAM) will not work.

The symptom described in the original report is likely due to

- Windows following the 0x10 interrupt vector (from page 0) to the C segment,

- copying a bunch of zeros into its real mode emulator from the C segment (where now no actual VBE code can be found),

- and then seeing no results when the real mode emulator executes the zeros.

Did a bit of testing: w7 iso boots to install screen with seabios but
stuck at win boot logo with ovmf.

I've heard (maybe wrongly) that seabios would also break in that case.

[Laszlo Ersek (Red Hat) (lersek)]

What I mentioned earlier was not that SeaBIOS would break.

Instead, I said that building OVMF, with the SeaBIOS CSM (Compatibility Support Module) embedded into it, would break, exactly the same way as the VBE Shim.

Quoting the CSM Spec from Intel: "The CSM provides compatibility support between the Framework and traditional, legacy BIOS code and allows booting a traditional OS or booting an EFI OS off a device that requires a traditional option ROM (OpROM)."

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Compatibility-Support-Module

Upstream edk2 contains no such module out of the box. However, SeaBIOS has been extended with a build target (CONFIG_CSM) that produces such a binary. This binary can be then embedded in the edk2 source tree (see "OvmfPkg/Csm/Csm16/ReadMe.txt"), and then OVMF can be built with -D CSM_ENABLE.

This will allow OVMF to boot legacy OSes, and those OSes will think they are being booted on a legacy BIOS machine.

While the SeaBIOS CSM itself is provided by the SeaBIOS project, the infrastructure that sets it up under UEFI comes from edk2. The two important drivers are -- built into OVMF only with -D CSM_ENABLE --:

- IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Csm/LegacyBiosDxe/LegacyBiosDxe.inf

- IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Csm/BiosThunk/VideoDxe/VideoDxe.inf

The former driver (LegacyBiosDxe) needs write access to the memory area at 0xc0000, so that it can install legacy PCI option ROMs. The service it provides is called "EFI_LEGACY_BIOS_PROTOCOL.InstallPciRom"; it loads a traditional OpROM into traditional OpROM address space (0xC0000 to 0xFFFFF region).

The latter driver (VideoDxe) asks the former driver to install such an option ROM (for video services) from the PCI ROM BAR.

Therefore, if the area at 0xc0000 is unwriteable for the guest, then neither the VBE Shim, nor its alternative -- namely the full-blown SeaBIOS CSM -- can function in OVMF.

looking at it more, question is why do we have a separate
piece of ram mapped here that overlays system ram.
Can we remove this memory region and let guest use
underling initial memory?

ovmf seems to not touch pam configuration, so rom remains mapped.
seabios in contrast maps the address range to ram instead.
IIRC ovmf does that too in CSM mode.
So, yes, probably this is fixable in ovmf.

[Laszlo Ersek (Red Hat) (lersek)]

Re: comment 14, "is there a way to fix vbeshim instead of reverting RO limitation that commit introduced?":

I don't think so; please see my earlier comments 15 and 17. To elaborate:

If a user wants to boot Windows 7 on OVMF, they have *three* options:

(1) Build the SeaBIOS CSM (CONFIG_CSM=y), and embed it into OVMF, like described above. Then, boot Windows 7 in *Legacy Mode*.

--> Windows 7 will think that it runs on a plain BIOS machine. The VBE Services will be provided to Windows 7 by (a) the edk2 CSM infrastructure, (b) the SeaBIOS CSM, and (c) the VGABIOS PCI oprom together.

(2) Build the SeaBIOS CSM (CONFIG_CSM=y), and embed it into OVMF, like described above. Then, boot Windows 7 in *UEFI Mode*.

--> Windows 7 will think that it runs on a UEFI machine, *but* because Windows 7 has a bug, it will want to invoke VBE services nonetheless. The VBE Services will be provided to Windows 7 by (a) the edk2 CSM infrastructure, (b) the SeaBIOS CSM, and (c) the VGABIOS PCI oprom together.

(3) Build OVMF without the SeaBIOS CSM, then boot Windows 7 in UEFI Mode.

--> Windows 7 will think that it runs on a UEFI machine, *but* because Windows 7 has a bug, it will want to invoke VBE services nonetheless. The VBE Services will be provided to Windows 7 by the VBE Shim that OVMF installs during boot.

Option #1 and option #2 no longer work because the CSM infrastructure in edk2 needs to be able to write 0xc0000.

Option #3 no longer works because OVMF needs to put the VBE Shim into place at 0xc0000.

Basically, Windows 7 wants to find the VBE services at 0xc0000, regardless of the method that it is booted with, ie. Legacy or UEFI. (As I said, this is a Windows 7 bug.) If that memory area is not writeable to the guest, then OVMF cannot satisfy the (buggy) Windows 7 requirement, using either of options #1, #2 or #3.

I don't understand; the code that I quoted above -- and that LaunchPad
messed up -- explicitly changes the PAM registers:

  //
  // Put the shim in place first.
  //
  Pam1Address = PCI_LIB_ADDRESS (0, 0, 0, 0x5A);
  //
  // low nibble covers 0xC0000 to 0xC3FFF
  // high nibble covers 0xC4000 to 0xC7FFF
  // bit1 in each nibble is Write Enable
  // bit0 in each nibble is Read Enable
  //
  Pam1 = PciRead8 (Pam1Address);
  PciWrite8 (Pam1Address, Pam1 | (BIT1 | BIT0));

...

  //
  // Clear Write Enable (bit1), keep Read Enable (bit0) set
  //
  PciWrite8 (Pam1Address, (Pam1 & ~BIT1) | BIT0);

I don't see how.

Ahh, wait, now I remember something -- the PAM registers are at a different location on Q35!!!

If that's what's wrong, then it is indeed an OVMF bug. Let me see if I can write a patch.

Well, option #2 works for me.

Indeed the CSM platform support had the same error one and half years ago, see:

Correct, and that's because edk2 commit db27e9f3d8f0 fixed the PAM
register offsets for Q35, in the CSM platform support. At that time we
missed that the same should be done in the VBE Shim as well.

I'm going to do it for the VBE Shim now.

(I'm pretty sure UEFI Windows 7 boots fine with the VBE Shim right now,
on QEMU 2.10, if the machine type is i440fx, not q35.)

Thanks for the help!
