We rely on PIE executables to get the codegen that is suitable for PE/COFF conversion where the resulting executables can be loaded anywhere in the address space. However, ELF linkers may default to disallowing text relocations in PIE executables, as this would require text segments to be updated at runtime, which is bad for security and increases the copy-on-write footprint of ELF executables and shared libraries. However, none of those concerns apply to PE/COFF executables in the context of EFI, which are copied into memory rather than mmap()'ed, and fixed up by the loader before launch. So pass -z notext to the LLD linker to permit runtime relocations in read-only sections. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Rebecca Cran <rebecca@bsdio.com> |

This directory contains the template files for the next generation of the EDK II Build infrastructure. These files will be copied into the WORKSPACE's Conf directory if and only if the target files do not exist. These files may be updated frequently. The XMLSchema directory contains the EDK II Packaging XML definitions. The schema may change in the future. It differs somewhat from the early versions of the XML Schema.
