[PATCH RFC v2 2/2] libstub: ensure allocated memory to be executable

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

 



There are UEFI versions that restrict execution of memory regions,
preventing the kernel from booting. Parts that needs to be executable
are:

* Area used for trampoline placement.
* All memory regions that the kernel may be relocated before
  and during extraction.

Use DXE services to ensure aforementioned address ranges
to be executable.
