[edk2-devel] [PATCH v6 5/8] OvmfPkg: Generate CloudHv as a PVH ELF binary

Boeuf, Sebastien sebastien.boeuf at intel.com
Wed Mar 2 13:31:34 UTC 2022


From: Sebastien Boeuf <sebastien.boeuf at intel.com>

Following the model from the Xen target, CloudHv is generated as a PVH
ELF binary to take advantage of the PVH specification, which requires
less emulation from the VMM.

The fdf include file CloudHvElfHeader.fdf.inc has been generated from
the following commands:

$ gcc -D PVH64 -o elf_gen OvmfPkg/OvmfXenElfHeaderGenerator.c
$ ./elf_gen 4194304 OvmfPkg/CloudHv/CloudHvElfHeader.fdf.inc
