Detailed Description

Provides services for SMM Memory Operation.

The SMM Mem Library provides function for checking if buffer is outside SMRAM and valid. It also provides functions for copy data from SMRAM to non-SMRAM, from non-SMRAM to SMRAM, from non-SMRAM to non-SMRAM, or set data in non-SMRAM.

SmmCopyMem()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI SmmCopyMem	(	OUT VOID *	DestinationBuffer,
		IN CONST VOID *	SourceBuffer,
		IN UINTN	Length
	)

Copies a source buffer (NON-SMRAM) to a destination buffer (NON-SMRAM).

This function copies a source buffer (non-SMRAM) to a destination buffer (SMRAM). It checks if source buffer and destination buffer are valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM. If the check passes, it copies memory and returns EFI_SUCCESS. If the check fails, it returns EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION. The implementation must be reentrant, and it must handle the case where source buffer overlaps destination buffer.

Parameters

DestinationBuffer	The pointer to the destination buffer of the memory copy.
SourceBuffer	The pointer to the source buffer of the memory copy.
Length	The number of bytes to copy from SourceBuffer to DestinationBuffer.

Return values

EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION	The DestinationBuffer is invalid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.
EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION	The SourceBuffer is invalid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.
EFI_SUCCESS	Memory is copied.

SmmCopyMemFromSmram()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI SmmCopyMemFromSmram	(	OUT VOID *	DestinationBuffer,
		IN CONST VOID *	SourceBuffer,
		IN UINTN	Length
	)

Copies a source buffer (SMRAM) to a destination buffer (NON-SMRAM).

This function copies a source buffer (non-SMRAM) to a destination buffer (SMRAM). It checks if destination buffer is valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM. If the check passes, it copies memory and returns EFI_SUCCESS. If the check fails, it returns EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION. The implementation must be reentrant.

Parameters

DestinationBuffer	The pointer to the destination buffer of the memory copy.
SourceBuffer	The pointer to the source buffer of the memory copy.
Length	The number of bytes to copy from SourceBuffer to DestinationBuffer.

Return values

EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION	The DestinationBuffer is invalid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.
EFI_SUCCESS	Memory is copied.

SmmCopyMemToSmram()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI SmmCopyMemToSmram	(	OUT VOID *	DestinationBuffer,
		IN CONST VOID *	SourceBuffer,
		IN UINTN	Length
	)

Copies a source buffer (non-SMRAM) to a destination buffer (SMRAM).

This function copies a source buffer (non-SMRAM) to a destination buffer (SMRAM). It checks if source buffer is valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM. If the check passes, it copies memory and returns EFI_SUCCESS. If the check fails, it return EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION. The implementation must be reentrant.

Parameters

DestinationBuffer	The pointer to the destination buffer of the memory copy.
SourceBuffer	The pointer to the source buffer of the memory copy.
Length	The number of bytes to copy from SourceBuffer to DestinationBuffer.

Return values

EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION	The SourceBuffer is invalid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.
EFI_SUCCESS	Memory is copied.

SmmIsBufferOutsideSmmValid()

BOOLEAN EFIAPI SmmIsBufferOutsideSmmValid	(	IN EFI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS	Buffer,
		IN UINT64	Length
	)

This function check if the buffer is valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM.

Parameters

Buffer	The buffer start address to be checked.
Length	The buffer length to be checked.

Return values

TRUE	This buffer is valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM.
FALSE	This buffer is not valid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.

SmmSetMem()

EFI_STATUS EFIAPI SmmSetMem	(	OUT VOID *	Buffer,
		IN UINTN	Length,
		IN UINT8	Value
	)

Fills a target buffer (NON-SMRAM) with a byte value.

This function fills a target buffer (non-SMRAM) with a byte value. It checks if target buffer is valid per processor architecture and not overlap with SMRAM. If the check passes, it fills memory and returns EFI_SUCCESS. If the check fails, it returns EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION.

Parameters

Buffer	The memory to set.
Length	The number of bytes to set.
Value	The value with which to fill Length bytes of Buffer.

Return values

EFI_SECURITY_VIOLATION	The Buffer is invalid per processor architecture or overlap with SMRAM.
EFI_SUCCESS	Memory is set.
