[PATCH v2 01/23] x86/boot: Align vmlinuz sections on page size
From: Evgeniy Baskov
Date: Tue Oct 25 2022 - 10:13:28 EST
To protect sections on page table level each section
needs to be aligned on page size (4KB).
Set sections alignment in linker script.
Add _compressed/_ecompressed symbols to access '.rodata..compressed'
section content in the same way other sections are accessed.
This is useful when applying memory attributes of the section.
