I'm not convinced about the use of the DXE services for this, and I
think we should replace this patch with changes that base all the new
protection code on the EFI memory attributes protocol only.
We introduced that DXE code to remove protections from memory that was
mapped read-only and/or non-executable, and described as such in the
GCD memory map.
Using it to manipulate restricted permissions like this is quite a
different thing, and sadly (at least in EDK2), the GCD system memory
map is not kept in sync with the updated permissions, i.e, the W^X
protections for loaded images and the NX protection for arbitrary page
allocations are both based on the PI CPU arch protocol, which
manipulates the page tables directly, but does not record the modified
attributes in the GCD or EFI memory maps, as this would result in
massive fragmentation and break lots of other things.
That means that, except for the specific use case for which we
introduced the DXE services calls, the only reliable way to figure out
what permission attributes a certain range of memory is using is the
EFI memory attributes protocol, and I don't think we should use
anything else for tightening down these protections.
