[edk2] [PATCH 0/2] Fixe out-of-sync issue between GCD and CPU driver
Posted by Jian J Wang 7 years, 3 months ago
There're two issues here actually.

From GCD perspective, its SetMemorySpaceAttributes() method doesn't accept
page related attributes. That means users cannot use it to change page
attributes, and have to turn to CPU arch protocol to do it, which is not
be allowed by PI spec.

From CpuDxe driver perspective, it doesn't update GCD memory attributes 
from current page table setup during its initialization. So the memory
attributes in GCD might not reflect all memory attributes in real world.

I found there's a logic hole in code. A new patch will be sent out.
