Subject: [PATCH] ArmVirtPkg/ArmVirtPrePiUniCoreRelocatable: deal with relaxed XIP alignment
Date: Tue,  2 Aug 2016 12:17:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1470133050-6304-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)

Commit b89919ee8f8c ("BaseTools AARCH64: override XIP module linker
alignment to 32 bytes") updated the various AARCH64 toolchain definitions
to allow SEC, PEI_CORE and PEIM modules to be built with minimal alignment
requirements even when using the AArch64 small code model which normally
requires 4 KB section alignment.

This involves conversion of ADRP instructions into ADR instructions, which
can only be done reliably if the ELF and the PE/COFF sections appear at
the same offset modulo 4 KB.

The ArmVirtPrePiUniCoreRelocatable linker script did not yet take this
into account, so update it by starting the .text section at the next
appropriately aligned offset PECOFF_HEADER_SIZE bytes into the image.

This fixes the ArmVirtQemuKernel and ArmVirtXen platforms, which are currently
broken when using DEBUG_GCC49, DEBUG_GCC5 or *_CLANG35 (all of which received
the linker alignment treatment mentioned above)

Symptoms: many occurrences of
...
GenFw: ERROR 3000: Invalid
  WriteSections64(): <../ArmVirtPrePiUniCoreRelocatable.dll> AARCH64 small
     code model requires identical ELF and PE/COFF section offsets modulo 4 KB.
...

and a failed build.
