> Subject: [PATCH 1/2] MdeModulePkg/UefiBootManagerLib: log reserved
> mem allocation failure
> 
> The LoadFile protocol can report such a large buffer size that we cannot
> allocate enough reserved pages for. This particularly affects HTTP(S)
> Boot, if the remote file is very large (for example, an ISO image).

> While the TianoCore wiki mentions this at
> <https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/HTTP-Boot#ram-
> disk-image-size>:
> 
> > The maximum RAM disk image size depends on how much continuous

> 
> it's hard to remember; so log a DEBUG_ERROR message when the allocation
> fails.

> This patch produces error messages such as:
>

> > BufferSize=4501536768
> > LoadFile="PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/MAC(5254001B103E,0x1)/
