[PATCH v3 5/8] x86/boot: Construct PE/COFF .text section from assembler

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Fri Sep 15 2023 - 13:17:56 EST


From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx>

Now that the size of the setup block is visible to the assembler, it is
possible to populate the PE/COFF header fields from the asm code
directly, instead of poking the values into the binary using the build
tool. This will make it easier to reorganize the section layout without
having to tweak the build tool in lockstep.

This change has no impact on the resulting bzImage binary.
