Subject: [PATCH] MdeModulePkg/BootGraphicsResourceTableDxe: don't allocate below 4 GB
Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 17:19:48 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1489943988-15378-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)
The BGRT table has an 8 byte field for the memory address of the image
data, and yet the driver explicitly allocates below 4 GB. This results
in an ASSERT() on systems that do not have any memory below 4 GB to begin
with.
Since neither the PI, the UEFI or the ACPI spec contain any mention of
why this data should reside below 4 GB, replace the allocation call
with an ordinary AllocatePages() call.
