Another question from my side: is it guaranteed the the memory map
returned by GetMemoryMap() is sorted?
Otherwise, it becomes non-trivial for the OS to ensure that all
Runtime regions are mapped adjacently.

Yes. It seems we need some special handling for AArch64.
If 64KiB is minimal paging unit, I think we need check 64KiB PE section
alignment for AArch64.
I confess that I only validated IA32 and X64, and I did not take AArch64 into
account.
BTW: There is no 64KiB alignment requirement for AArch32

We documented the OS limitation, like Win8, and we hope future OS can resolve
it. (So did Win10)

Thanks for the sharing. Yes. I agree with you that this breaks backward
compatibility.
Right, I do not think we can boot Win7 or old Win8 with this feature enabled.
Both UEFI OS and Firmware need support this UEFI2.5 Properties Table feature. I
believe it is known by UEFI forum, when it is added

I see this as a big problem with the
Hi Ard
Yes, your are right. We do observe similar odd behavior in old
Win7/Win8/Win8.1, and we have to disable it.
Win8 and Win8.1 have OS patch to set adjacent virtual memory map, to resolve
this issue.
We also tested Win10, and Suse 11 GM. They are good.
Would you please share the information

Hello all,
I am running into another problem with the implementation of the UEFI
2.5 Properties Table feature. It splits PE/COFF images into separate
but adjacent memory regions, only to be able to assign different
permissions to .text and .data sections. This is working fine at boot
time.
