Subject: [PATCH] MdeModulePkg/DxeCore: Use correct type for alignment mask
Date: Wed,  7 Dec 2022 19:00:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221207180044.2863126-1-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)

The page allocator code in CoreFindFreePagesI() uses a mask derived from
its UINTN Alignment argument to align the descriptor end address of a
MEMORY_MAP entry to the requested alignment, in order to check whether
the descriptor covers enough sufficiently aligned area to satisfy the
request.

However, on 32-bit architectures, 'Alignment' is a 32-bit type, whereas
DescEnd is a 64-bit type, and so the resulting operation performed on
the end address comes down to masking with 0xfffff000 instead of the
intended 0xffffffff_fffff000. Given the -1 at the end of the expression,
the resulting address is 0xffffffff_fffffffff for any descriptor that
ends on a 4G aligned boundary, and this is certainly not what was
intended.

So cast Alignment to UINT64 to ensure that the mask has the right size.
