Subject: [PATCH] nx: set the nx compatible flag in EFI grub images
|
|
|
e28c09 |
|
|
|
e28c09 |
For NX, we need the grub binary to announce that it is compatible with
|
|
|
e28c09 |
the NX feature. This implies that when loading the executable grub
|
|
|
e28c09 |
image, several attributes are true:
|
|
|
e28c09 |
|
|
|
e28c09 |
- the binary doesn't need an executable stack
|
|
|
e28c09 |
- the binary doesn't need sections to be both executable and writable
|
|
|
e28c09 |
- the binary knows how to use the EFI Memory Attributes protocol on code
|
|
|
e28c09 |
it is loading.
|
|
|
e28c09 |
|
|
|
e28c09 |
This patch adds a definition for the PE DLL Characteristics flag
|
|
|
e28c09 |
GRUB_PE32_NX_COMPAT, and changes grub-mkimage to set that flag.
