They're each stand-alone correctness improvements, and while FGKASLR depends on them, there is no reason to keep them tied to that series, especially since anyone using the early-boot malloc or making changes to text sections is going to trip over one or several of the issues fixed here. They've got a bunch of reviews and acks already: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-hardening/list/?series=562929 Thanks! -Kees > > Kees Cook (2): > x86/boot: Allow a "silent" kaslr random byte fetch > x86/boot/compressed: Avoid duplicate malloc() implementations > > Kristen Carlson Accardi (2): > x86/tools/relocs: Support >64K section headers > vmlinux.lds.h: Have ORC lookup cover entire _etext - _stext > > arch/x86/boot/compressed/kaslr.c | 4 -- > arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c | 3 + > arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.h | 2 + > arch/x86/lib/kaslr.c | 18 ++++-- > arch/x86/tools/relocs.c | 103 ++++++++++++++++++++++-------- > include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 3 +- > include/linux/decompress/mm.h | 12 +++- > 7 files changed, 107 insertions(+), 38 deletions(-) > > -- > 2.30.2 > -- Kees Cook
