Thanks Laszlo. I think this is a special case we did not test before. And it is
a bug we need fix.
Unfortunately, I am out of office these days with limited email access. I just
saw the email today.
I have a quick look at the code. I believe we need add below check in
UefiCpuPkg\PiSmmCpuDxeSmm\SmmCpuMemoryManagement.c,
ConvertMemoryPageAttributes()
==========================
if (BaseAddress > MAX_ADDRESS) {
return RETURN_UNSUPPORTED;
}
if (Length > MAX_ADDRESS) {
return RETURN_UNSUPPORTED;
}
if ((Length != 0) && (BaseAddress > MAX_ADDRESS - (Length - 1))) {
return RETURN_UNSUPPORTED;
}
==========================
to filter invalid address in IA32.
(Well, it is valid for OS, because OS may use PAE to match to lower. But it is
invalid for UEFI, because UEFI uses identical address)
Would you please file an HSD for that?
Thank you
