Subject: [PATCH] efi_loader: Do not enable by default on armv7
Date: Sun, 27 Jun 2021 15:44:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210627194449.18840-1-trini@konsulko.com> (raw)
We have had EFI loader support enabled by default on armv7 platforms for
a long time now. However, there has been little uptake in the wider
community to use EFI loader support as the step to start a generic OS
distribution, on this architecture family and the focus has been on
armv8 instead. Disable this by default for armv7 only.

I'm very much looking for feedback here that this is the wrong approach
and that I've missed the off the shelf distributions that make use of
this.
