    Subject[PATCH 17/17] efi/libstub/arm64: handle randomized TEXT_OFFSET
    Date
    From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

    When CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET is selected, TEXT_OFFSET is an
    arbitrary multiple of PAGE_SIZE in the interval [0, 2MB).

    The EFI stub does not account for the potential misalignment of
    TEXT_OFFSET relative to EFI_KIMG_ALIGN, and produces a randomized
    physical offset which is always a round multiple of EFI_KIMG_ALIGN.
    This may result in statically allocated objects whose alignment exceeds
    PAGE_SIZE to appear misaligned in memory. This has been observed to
    result in spurious stack overflow reports and failure to make use of
    the IRQ stacks, and theoretically could result in a number of other
    issues.

    We can OR in the low bits of TEXT_OFFSET to ensure that we have the
    necessary offset (and hence preserve the misalignment of TEXT_OFFSET
    relative to EFI_KIMG_ALIGN), so let's do that.

    Fixes: 6f26b3671184c36d ("arm64: kaslr: increase randomization granularity")
