[edk2-devel] Build fails with VS2012

I'm setting up a new Jenkins server to do Bhyve builds and run on 
platforms that aren't currently tested with the GitHub/Azure system.

Since VS2012 appears to be a supported toolchain, I tried building 
OvmfPkgX64 with it (I'm also planning on testing VS2013, VS2015, VS2017 
and VS2019), but it fails with:


Building ... 
c:\users\administrator\src\edk2\NetworkPkg\Library\DxeUdpIoLib\DxeUdpIoLib.inf 
[X64]
c:\users\administrator\src\edk2\UefiCpuPkg\Library\MpInitLib\MpLib.c(1268) 
: error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated
c:\users\administrator\src\edk2\UefiCpuPkg\Library\MpInitLib\MpLib.c(1268) 
: warning C4306: 'type cast' : conversion from 'int' to 
'SEV_ES_AP_JMP_FAR *' of greater size

I know the GitHub/Azure system only tests with VS2017 and VS2019: are 
there plans to drop the older VS versions, or should they still work?
And would it be considered useful to _check_ that they still work, or 
should they be considered unsupported?
