For kernel text KASLR, the virtual address is confined to area of 1G, [0xffffffff80000000, 0xffffffffc0000000). For the implemenataion of virtual address randomization, we only randomize to get an offset between 16M and 1G, then add this offset to the starting address, 0xffffffff80000000. Here 16M is the offset which is decided at linking stage. So the amount of the local variable 'virt_addr' which respresents the offset plus the kernel output size can not exceed KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE. Add a debug check for the offset. If out of bounds, print error message and hang there.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
