[PATCH v6 4/4] x86/boot/KASLR: Restrict kernel to be randomized in mirror regions

From: Baoquan He
Date: Tue Jul 18 2017 - 07:18:57 EST


Kernel text may be located in non-mirror regions (movable zone) when both
address range mirroring feature and KASLR are enabled.

The address range mirroring feature arranges such mirror region into
normal zone and other region into movable zone in order to locate
kernel code and data in mirror region. The physical memory region
whose descriptors in EFI memory map has EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE
attribute (bit: 16) are mirrored.

If efi is detected, iterate efi memory map and pick the mirror region to
process for adding candidate of randomization slot. If efi is disabled
or no mirror region found, still process e820 memory map.
