Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] ArmVirtPkg: enable non-executable DXE stack for all platforms
Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2017 09:42:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1488876125-24396-5-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1488876125-24396-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>
Now that ARM has grown support for managing memory permissions in
ArmMmuLib, we can enable the non-executable DXE stack for all virt
platforms. Note that this includes the AARCH64 Xen platform as well.
Note that this is not [entirely] redundant: the non-executable stack
is configured before DxeCore is invoked. The image and memory protection
features configured during DXE only take affect when the CPU arch
protocol implementation is registered.
