Re: [edk2-devel] MdeModulePkg: Fix MAT SplitRecord() Logic introduce one bug and will cause SUT reset when boot to windows

["Huang, Yanbo" <yanbo.huang@intel.com>]

Hi Taylor,

For your mentioned: "In this case, because the memory type of the buffer is EfiRuntimeServicesCode, shouldn't the final pages be EFI_MEMORY_RO?"

After print the attributes, the attribute are not set to EFI_MEMORY_RO, nearly all of the NewRecord->Attribute are set to 0 in SplitRecord API.

Best Regards,
Yanbo Huang

Hi Yanbo,

Can you help me understand the memory layout which causes this issue?

If a single EfiRuntimeServicesCode descriptor needs to be split because an image is within the memory range. I think that descriptor is split like so in the case you're encountering:

-------------------  ---       ---
|       DATA      |     |        |
-------------------     |        |
|       CODE      |     | Image  |
-------------------     | Memory | EfiRuntimeServicesCode
|       DATA      |     |        |
-------------------  ---         |
|   Extra Pages   |              |
-------------------            ---

In this case, because the memory type of the buffer is EfiRuntimeServicesCode, shouldn't the final pages be EFI_MEMORY_RO?

Thanks!
