![]() If kernel image extends across alignment boundary, existing
code increases the KASLR offset by size of kernel image. The
offset is masked after resizing. There are cases, where after
masking, we may still have kernel image extending across
boundary. This eventually results in only 2MB block getting
mapped while creating the page tables. This results in data aborts
while accessing unmapped regions during second relocation (with
kaslr offset) in __primary_switch. To fix this problem, round up the
kernel image size, by swapper block size, before adding it for
correction.
For example consider below case, where kernel image still crosses
1GB alignment boundary, after masking the offset, which is fixed
by rounding up kernel image size.
SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 30
Swapper using section maps with section size 2MB.
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS = 3
VA_BITS = 39
_text : 0xffffff8008080000
_end : 0xffffff800aa1b000
offset : 0x1f35600000
mask = ((1UL << (VA_BITS - 2)) - 1) & ~(SZ_2M - 1)
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7c
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
offset after existing correction (before mask) = 0x1f37f9b000
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
offset (after mask) = 0x1f37e00000
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7c
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
new offset w/ rounding up = 0x1f38000000
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
