[PATCH v9 0/9] efi: Improvements to U-Boot running on top of UEFI

[Simon Glass]

At present U-Boot can be built as an EFI app, but it is really just for
testing, with very few features. Instead, the payload build is used for
booting on top of UEFI, where U-Boot takes over the machine immediately
and supplies its own drivers.

But the app could be made more useful.

This series provides access to EFI block devices and the video console
within U-Boot. It also restructures the app to make it possible to boot
a kernel, although further work is needed to implement this.

This can be thought of as making U-Boot perform a little like 'grub', in
that it runs purely based on UEFI-provided services.

Of course a lot more work is required, but this is a start.

Note: It would be very useful to include qemu tests of the app and stub
in CI.
