[edk2-devel] [RFC][PATCH v1 0/1] PcAtChipsetPkg: Remove framework modules

[Wu, Hao A]

Hello all,

For this RFC patch, so far it has received the below feedbacks:

* Ack tag from Laszlo:
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/42381

* Reviewed-by tag from Ray (PcAtChipsetPkg maintainer):
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/42793

* Linux Kernel soft hangs if 8259 PIC is not configured by BIOS:
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/topic/31823819#41532

For the last feedback, 8259 PIC can still be configured (to a reasonable
state for OS) by Chipset/SI initialization codes without requiring the
8259 driver in PcAtChipsetPkg. Hence, I think it is not considered as a
blockade for the removal of 8259 driver proposed by this patch.

If there is no other concern, I plan to push this change in 24 hours.

Best Regards,
Hao Wu
