[PATCH v3 05/35] efi: Create a 64-bit app

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Tue Oct 26 05:30:28 CEST 2021


Most modern platforms use 64-bit EFI so it is useful to have a U-Boot app
that runs under that. Add a (non-functional) build for this.

Note that --whole-archive causes the gcc 9.2 linker to crash, so disable
this for now. Once this is resolved, things should work.

For now, avoid mentioning the documentation for the 64-bit app, since it
does not work.

Changes in v3:
- Default to 256MB of RAM for U-Boot instead of 32MB

Changes in v2:
- Add MAINTAINERS entry
- Add a work-around to avoid a toolchain crash
