[PATCH 3.14 131/238] x86/kaslr: Avoid the setup_data area when picking location
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Oct 03 2014 - 18:07:53 EST
3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0cacbfbeb5077b63d5d3cf6df88b14ac12ad584b upstream.
The KASLR location-choosing logic needs to avoid the setup_data
list memory areas as well. Without this, it would be possible to
have the ASLR position stomp on the memory, ultimately causing
the boot to fail.
