Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] x86/efi: Drop support for the EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE
Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2024 18:52:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241112185217.48792-1-nsaenz@amazon.com> (raw)
Drop support for the EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE. It was a failed, short-lived
experiment that broke the boot both on Linux and Windows, and was
replaced by the EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE shortly after.
Suggested-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
