[PATCH v3 2/7] x86, boot: Move ZO to end of buffer

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Sat Mar 07 2015 - 17:08:07 EST


Boris found data from boot stage can not be used kernel stage.

Bootloader allocate buffer according to init_size in hdr, and load the
ZO (arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux) from start of that buffer.
During running of ZO, ZO move itself to the middle of buffer at
z_extract_offset to make sure that decompressor would not have output
overwrite input data before input data get consumed.
After decompressor is called, VO (vmlinux) use whole buffer from start,
and ZO code and data section is overlapped with VO bss section.
And later VO/clear_bss() clear them before code in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c
access them.

To make the data survive that later, we should avoid the overlapping.
At first move ZO close the end of buffer instead of middle of the buffer,
that will move out ZO data out of VO bss area.

Also after that we can find out where is data section of copied ZO
instead of guessing. That will aslr mem_avoid array filling for
new buffer seaching much simple.

And rename z_extract_offset to z_min_extract_offset, as it is
actually the minimum offset for extracting now.

To keep the final real extract_offset to be page aligned like
min_extract_offset, we need make VO _end and ZO _end both
page aligned to make sure init_size always page aligned.

Next patch will add ZO data size to init_size, so it will make sure
ZO data is even out of VO brk area.
