With all the patches we got into U-Boot (+HII protocols, +HOB and DXE
tables) we now can start the EFI shell. But I do not succeed to run the
SCT. Could you, please, provide an overview what is needed.

I use the sct-prepare target in
https://github.com/xypron/u-boot-build/blob/qemu-arm64/Makefile to set
up my disk image with the SCT.

Are we missing further patches or is there something wrong with the
image I generate?

In the rest of efi_api.h we never used typedefs for function prototypes.
I would prefer to use the explicit type.

In scripts/checkpatch.pl this will create a warning.

Please, do not assume the the image_handle points to the
EFI_LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL. Anyway this is not valid anymore after
http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commitdiff;h=c982874e930d5d673501cd94df07bcbd215d5883
