[edk2-devel] [PATCH v2 1/1] ArmPkg: Implement PlatformBootManagerLib for LinuxBoot

LinuxBoot is a firmware that replaces specific firmware functionality
like the UEFI DXE phase with a Linux kernel and runtime. It is built-in
UEFI image like an application, which is executed at the end of DXE
phase.

To achieve the LinuxBoot boot flow "SEC->PEI->DXE->BDS->LinuxBoot",
today we use the common well-known GUID of UEFI Shell for LinuxBoot
payload, so LinuxBoot developers can effortlessly find the UEFI Shell
Application and replace it with the LinuxBoot payload without
recompiling platform EDK2 (There might be an issue with a few systems
that don't have a UEFI Shell). Also, we have a hard requirement to force
the BDS to boot into the LinuxBoot as it is essentially required that
only the LinuxBoot boot option is permissible and UEFI is an
intermediate bootstrap phase. Considering all the above, it is
reasonable to just have a new GUID for LinuxBoot and require a LinuxBoot
specific BDS implementation. In addition, with making the BDS
implementation simpler, we can reduce many DXE drivers which we think it
is not necessary for LinuxBoot booting.

This patch adds a new PlatformBootManagerLib implementation which
registers only the gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdLinuxBootFileGuid for LinuxBoot
payload as an active boot option. It allows BDS to jump to the LinuxBoot
quickly by skipping the UiApp and UEFI Shell.

The PlatformBootManagerLib library derived from
ArmPkg/Library/PlatformBootManagerLib.
