Hmm. Not a comment to this specifically, but more to the OVMF *.dsc and
*.fdf files in general. We have a lot of duplication here. I've
already moved some bits to include files (OvmfPkg/OvmfTpm*.inc for
example) to reduce that. Makes maintainance easier and builds more
consistent.
This looks like a prime candidate for a new OvmfNetwork.dsc.inc file,
so we can easily get that for all build variants and not only X64.
And there is more which we can split out. crypto (have an experimental
branch doing that as part of my CryptoPkg/Driver experiments). drivers
(usb / virtio / ...). Shell.efi
Maybe it makes sense to move those include snippets into a subdirectory
so they don't pile up in OvmfPkg/ when we move more stuff to includes?
take care,
Gerd
