[PATCH v7 0/4] Various patches to improve Secure Boot support
Posted by Frediano Ziglio 2 weeks, 3 days ago
These patches improve support for Secure boot.
UEFI CA memory mitigation requires memory pages to be not executable and
writable at the same time. So changing permissions and splitting some section
is required.

- merged 2 pacthes removing multiboot support in x86 PE;
- removed a patch dealing with SBAT;
- other minor changes (see single patches).

Changes since v2:
- improved some comments.

Changes since v3:
- Added Acked-by;
- Improve commit message.

Changes since v4:
- Messages updates;
- Clean some dependencies cause by code removal;
- Add small commit to remove a possibly unused string.

Changes since v5:
- removed merged commit;
- remove more code/data from xen.efi output.

Changes since v6:
- fix commit message.
