> v2: re-generate this patch per Leif's comments. No logic changes.
REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1295
This issue originates from following patch which allows to enable
paging if PcdImageProtectionPolicy and PcdDxeNxMemoryProtectionPolicy
(in addition to PcdSetNxForStack) are set to enable related features.
5267926134d17e86672b84fd57b438f05ffa68e1
Due to above change, PcdImageProtectionPolicy will be set to 0 by
default in many platforms, which, in turn, cause following code in
MdeModulePkg\Core\Dxe\Misc\MemoryProtection.c fail the creation of
notify event of CpuArchProtocol.
1138: if (mImageProtectionPolicy != 0 ||
PcdGet64 (PcdDxeNxMemoryProtectionPolicy) != 0) {
1139: Status = CoreCreateEvent (
...
1142: MemoryProtectionCpuArchProtocolNotify,
...
1145: );
Then following call flow won't be done and Guard pages will not be
set as not-present in SetAllGuardPages() eventually.
MemoryProtectionCpuArchProtocolNotify()
=> HeapGuardCpuArchProtocolNotify()
=> SetAllGuardPages()
The solution is removing the if(...) statement so that the notify
event will always be created and registered. This won't cause
unnecessary code execution because, in the notify event handler,
the related PCDs like
PcdImageProtectionPolicy and
PcdDxeNxMemoryProtectionPolicy
will be checked again before doing related jobs.
