[PATCH 5.0 21/89] arm64: mm: Ensure tail of unaligned initrd is reserved

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

 



From: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d4d18e3ec6091843f607e8929a56723e28f393a6 upstream.

In the event that the start address of the initrd is not aligned, but
has an aligned size, the base + size will not cover the entire initrd
image and there is a chance that the kernel will corrupt the tail of the
image.

By aligning the end of the initrd to a page boundary and then
subtracting the adjusted start address the memblock reservation will
cover all pages that contains the initrd.
