This has *nothing* to do with the ecosystem. This has to do with existing users of ArmVirtQemu (admittedly, a small fraction) that will be forced to compile their UEFI images from source because we made a backwards incompatible change. I am 100% on board with making ACPI and DT mutually exclusive. But I don't believe for a second that 'everybody just exposes ACPI and DT at the same time' if this gets merged. That happens because people are clueless, not because they are deliberately spending time and effort on producing two hardware descriptions. _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
