[PATCH stable-v6.1 17/18] x86/boot: efistub: Assign global boot_params variable

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

 



From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Commit 50dcc2e0d62e3c4a54f39673c4dc3dcde7c74d52 upstream ]

Now that the x86 EFI stub calls into some APIs exposed by the
decompressor (e.g., kaslr_get_random_long()), it is necessary to ensure
that the global boot_params variable is set correctly before doing so.
