[OS-BUILD PATCHv2 4/4] Add CONFIG_EFI_DXE_MEM_ATTRIBUTES

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Justin M. Forbes <jforbes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add CONFIG_EFI_DXE_MEM_ATTRIBUTES

UEFI specification does not guarantee all memory to be
accessible for both write and execute as the kernel expects
it to be.
Use DXE services to check and alter memory protection
attributes during boot via EFISTUB to ensure that memory
ranges used by the kernel are writable and executable.
