The story is in BIOS handling， please refer the function, romfile_loader_add_pointer() in src/fw/romfile_loader.c of seabios: memcpy(&pointer, dest_file->data + offset, entry->pointer_size); pointer = le64_to_cpu(pointer); pointer += (unsigned long)src_file->data; pointer = cpu_to_le64(pointer); memcpy(dest_file->data + offset, &pointer, entry->pointer_size); > >>>> + sizeof(uint64_t)); > also it looks like there is bug somewhere in linker as it patches > only lower 32 bits of pointed value even though it has been told that > pointer size is 64bit. Do you mean that the BIOS allocated memory is always below 4G? Yes, it is true in current QEMU as it is using u32 to represent memory address, however i did not check the implementation in OVMF. Can we assume that BIOS allocatedc address is always 32 bits in QEMU? I see this is no spec/comment guarantees this and this is completely depended on BIOS's implementation, so i made the QEMU be 64bit address aware.
