Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Enable page table write protection
Date: Mon,  4 Dec 2017 16:35:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171204083556.19416-1-jian.j.wang@intel.com> (raw)

> v2 changes:
>  a. Enable protection on any newly added page table after DxeIpl.
>  b. Introduce page table pool concept to make page table allocation
>     and protection easier and error free.

Write Protect feature (CR0.WP) is always enabled in driver UefiCpuPkg/CpuDxe.
But the memory pages used for page table are not set as read-only in the driver
DxeIplPeim, after the paging is setup. This might jeopardize the page table
integrity if there's buffer overflow occured in other part of system.

This patch series will change this situation by clearing R/W bit in page attribute
of the pages used as page table.

Validation works include booting Windows (10/server 2016) and Linux (Fedora/Ubuntu)
on OVMF and Intel real platform.

  MdeModulePkg/PageTablePool.h: Page table pool GUID definition file
  MdeModulePkg/DxeIpl: Mark page table as read-only
  UefiCpuPkg/CpuDxe: Enable protection for newly added page table
