Subject: [PATCH 15/62] Fix for "Section 0 has negative size" error when
loading fbaa64.efi
The current code is incorrectly failing to load the fbaa64.efi image found
in Arm servers even though the UEFI shell code is able to properly load
and execute the same image.
The problem is due to the presence of a section header that has zero size
and address and marked "discardable" in the fbaa64.efi image.
Although there is already a check further down in the code to look for
the discardable bit and skip further verification checks if set, we never
get to that point due to the "end < base" check at the start of the loop.
Here is a dump of the fbaa64.efi image as compiled on an Arm machine
from the latest code in this repo:
% # First I used hexedit to change header byte from 'AA' to '86'
% # so that objdump was able to correctly parse the file:
% objdump -x -m aarch64 fbaa64.efi
fbaa64.efi: file format pei-x86-64
