Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2023 10:39:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230628173907.1296-1-joey.vagedes@gmail.com> (raw)

v2: Adds --nonxcompat flag to GenFw; updates man page

Utilize GenFw to automatically set the NXCOMPAT bit of the DLL Characteristics
field of the Optional Header if the following requirements are met:

1. It is a 64bit PE
2. The section alignment is evently divisible by 4K
3. No section is both EFI_IMAGE_SCN_MEM_EXECUTE and EFI_IMAGE_SCN_MEM_WRITE
