[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] efi_loader: Add bounce buffer support

Alexander Graf agraf at suse.de
Wed May 11 18:25:48 CEST 2016


Some hardware that is supported by U-Boot can not handle DMA above 32bits.
For these systems, we need to come up with a way to expose the disk interface
in a safe way.

This patch implements EFI specific bounce buffers. For non-EFI cases, this
apparently was no issue so far, since we can just define our environment
variables conveniently.
