Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ArmPkg/ArmMmuLib: Fix ArmReplaceLiveTranslationEntry() alignment
Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2023 18:09:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230417180916.95237-2-mhaeuser@posteo.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230417180916.95237-1-mhaeuser@posteo.de>

As the ASM_FUNC() macro performs a section switch, the preceding
.balign directive applies the alignment constraint to the current
location in the previous section. As the linker may not merge the
sections in-order, ArmReplaceLiveTranslationEntry() may be left
unaligned.

Replace the explicit invocation of .balign with the ASM_FUNC_ALIGN()
macro, which guarantees the alignment constraint is applied correctly.
