Subject: [PATCH v2 10/10] efi: payload: bootm: add x86 efi stub boot support.
Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2025 23:54:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250916035437.805046-10-chalianis1@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250916035437.805046-1-chalianis1@gmail.com>
From: Chali Anis <chalianis1@gmail.com>
implement the efi stub boot on x86, this code is tested on qemu,
and dell latitude 7490. the EFI_ALLOCATE_MAX_PAGES cause an xfuncs
issue on real hardware so I transformed it to allocate any pages.
