Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Fixes for running U-boot under QEMU/KVM
Date: Sat,  6 Jun 2020 19:15:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200606171534.736365-1-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)

This series fixes a number of issues that exist in the QEMU/mach-virt
port of u-boot, and that prevent it from executing correctly under
virtualization (as opposed to TCG emulation)

As the Linux EFI subsystem maintainer, I am looking to increase test
coverage for the EFI related changes that are under development for
Linux, and one of the things I plan to do is start using U-boot as
test firmware for boot testing. This can be done under TCG emulation,
but given how loosely TCG implements the architecture, it is better
to test under virtualization as well.

With these changes applied, u-boot can boot Linux in EFI mode under
KVM.
